Quantity Surveyor

Job description

Quantity Surveyor

Manchester | £50,000 - £75,000 + Car Allowance + Benefits

Building Services | MEP | Design & Build

Are you a Quantity Surveyor looking for more than just another commercial role?

We're supporting a growing specialist contractor that delivers complex Design & Build projects across sectors including pharmaceuticals, healthcare, life sciences, advanced manufacturing and high-specification commercial environments.

With an exceptional order book, ambitious growth plans and a genuine commitment to developing its people, this is an opportunity to become a key member of a commercial team with clear progression into senior leadership.

The Role

Working closely with experienced Project Managers, you'll play a key role in the commercial delivery of technically challenging turnkey projects, including:

• Commercial management of Design & Build projects
• Valuations and payment applications
• Pricing variations and change control
• Cost reporting and forecasting
• Subcontract procurement and commercial management
• Managing commercial risk throughout the project lifecycle
• Contract administration (predominantly JCT, with some NEC)
• Building strong relationships with clients, subcontractors and internal teams

This is primarily an office-based position with occasional site visits, providing close collaboration with the wider commercial, design and project delivery teams.

About You

We're keen to speak with Quantity Surveyors who have:

• Building Services or MEP experience
• Contractor-side Quantity Surveying experience
• Design & Build project experience
• Knowledge of JCT and/or NEC contracts
• Strong commercial awareness
• Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills
• A collaborative, solutions-focused approach

Experience within specialist fit-out, cleanrooms, pharmaceutical, healthcare or technically complex construction projects would be advantageous but is by no means essential.

What's On Offer

• £50,000 - £75,000 depending on experience
• Car Allowance
• Company Pension
• Death in Service
• 25 Days Holiday plus Bank Holidays
• Genuine career progression into senior commercial leadership
• Exposure to landmark specialist construction projects
• Supportive, collaborative working environment
• Long-term career development with an ambitious and growing business
