A well-established, small independent building surveying practice is looking to appoint a Chartered Building Surveyor to head up and grow its residential team.
This is a fantastic opportunity for an ambitious surveyor who wants real responsibility, autonomy, and a clear pathway to senior leadership, with the potential to progress to Director level within approximately two years.
The Role
You will take ownership of the residential department, delivering a broad range of professional services including:
* Party wall matters
* Pre-purchase surveys and condition reports
* Dilapidations (residential)
* Small extensions and domestic project work
* Contract administration
* Building regulations advice and applications
* Client liaison and business development
You will play a key role in shaping and expanding the residential side of the business.
About You
* MRICS qualified (essential)
* Strong residential building surveying experience
* Confident managing projects independently
* Experience with party wall matters and domestic works
* Commercial awareness and client-facing skills
* Ambition to progress into a senior leadership role
Why This Role?
* Head up a department — not just another cog in the machine
* Clear progression to Associate / Director
* Small, supportive team with real influence on the business
* Opportunity to help shape strategy and growth
* Varied workload across professional and project work
* Profit share in your department
This role would particularly suit someone who feels ready for the next step but lacks progression opportunities in a larger firm
