Sector: Energy & Transmission | Contractor-Side | NEC4 Option C
A leading infrastructure contractor is looking for a Senior Quantity Surveyor to join its Energy division on a major transmission project valued in excess of £300m in the South East of England.
This is a genuine opportunity for a Senior Quantity Surveyor to join an industry leading business where you'll be carrying out end-to-end commercial management on an exciting, high value project. You'll take ownership of a package of works on a high-profile, technically complex energy scheme and because the project is in its early stages, you'll have the chance to shape the commercial framework from the outset rather than inheriting someone else's setup. For an ambitious Senior Quantity Surveyor, or an experienced QS ready for that step up, this is a rare chance to put your stamp on a significant infrastructure project, crucial to the UK's energy network.
What You'll Be Doing
Full commercial management of a package of works from inception through to final account
Preparation of valuations and applications for payment with full contractual substantiation
Producing and managing cost reports to the client in line with contract requirements
Administration of subcontractor and supplier accounts, including interim payments and final accounts
Management of subcontract and materials procurement schedules
Contract administration, change control and maintenance of all associated commercial registers
Identification and management of commercial risks, opportunities, value engineering and change
Accurate cost allocation and coding to meet internal and external reporting requirements
Measurement of works in accordance with standard methods of measurement
Ensuring site teams operate in line with internal commercial procedures and governanceWhat We're Looking For
HND or Degree in Quantity Surveying, Commercial Management or a related discipline
Proven experience as a Senior Quantity Surveyor on large-scale infrastructure or civil engineering projects, or a strong intermediate QS ready to step up into a senior position
Strong working knowledge of NEC contracts - NEC4 Option C experience is preferred, but other NEC experience (Options A, C or E) is welcomed
Background in civil engineering, energy, utilities or major construction projects
Membership of RICS or ICES, or actively working towards chartership
Commercially driven, with the confidence to manage subcontractors, challenge costs and protect margins
Strong communication skills and the ability to work collaboratively with site teams, project managers and client representativesWhat's On Offer
Starting salary of £53,000 - £70,000 depending on experience
£7,000 car allowance
27 days annual leave plus bank holidays (with the option to buy additional days)
Discretionary annual bonus and annual salary review
Competitive contributory pension scheme
Private healthcare, life assurance and health screening
Enhanced maternity, paternity and sick pay
Structured investment in professional development and career progression
Additional lifestyle benefits including retail discounts, gym memberships and cycle-to-work schemesWhy This Role?
