Shape Major Projects. Drive Commercial Success.
Join a leading UK infrastructure contractor delivering complex civil engineering projects across water, energy, transport, and the built environment. With a strong pipeline of secured work and long-term frameworks, this is an opportunity to become part of a business where commercial expertise has a direct impact on project performance and profitability.
Working across schemes ranging from £200k to £10m+, you'll play a key role in driving value, influencing strategy, and ensuring successful project delivery.
The Role
As a Quantity Surveyor, you'll work closely with operational teams and act as the commercial lead across a range of projects. Responsibilities include:
* Producing and managing cost value reconciliations (CVR), forecasting, and cash flow reporting.
* Procuring and managing subcontract packages, including negotiation and account management.
* Administering NEC3/NEC4 and IChemE contracts, managing change control, risk, and compensation events.
* Identifying commercial opportunities and mitigating potential risks.
* Supporting project teams to improve efficiency and maximise margins.
* Building and maintaining strong relationships with clients and supply chain partners.
This is a position where you'll do far more than report figures — you'll help shape project outcomes.
