How our sorting works

The order in which job vacancies are displayed is determined by a composite score based on the following factors:

  • Keyword Relevance: How well your search terms match the vacancy details. We prioritize matches found in the job title, followed by job requirements, location names, and educational levels. Matches within general employer information or the organization's name carry a lower weight.
  • Commercial Prioritization (Premium Jobs): Vacancies paid for by employers ('Premium' or 'Sponsored') receive a ranking boost and will appear higher in the search results.
  • Recency (Date Relevance): Newer vacancies are prioritized. The relevance score of a vacancy is reduced by half once the posting is older than 30 days.
  • Proximity (Distance Relevance): Vacancies located closer to your search location are ranked higher. For vacancies located more than 30 km from the search center, the relevance score is halved.
The final ranking is established by multiplying all these individual factors to calculate the total relevance score.

    Job description

    Role: M&E Quantity Surveyor / Commercial Manager
    Location: Belfast
    Salary: £Competitive

    Fed up doing the deal but never seeing where it lands?

    Most commercial managers get buried in paperwork that nobody above them ever reads. This one reports straight into the Regional and Operations Director.

    And one of the projects on your desk is a £100+ million investment that's one of the area's biggest builds in years.

    Is this you?

    You can read a contract and spot the risk in it before it becomes a problem, not after.

    You've negotiated hard enough, often enough, that it doesn't rattle you anymore.

    You'd rather be the person the operations team calls before a dispute than after one.

    If that's you, keep reading.

    What you'll be doing
    • Reviewing contract terms and identifying commercial risk on new business and retenders
    • Leading contract negotiation and finalising documents for new projects
    • Owning legal and commercial matters for the region — the first point of contact, not the last
    • Chairing monthly contract reviews and keeping cashflow forecasts current across every project
    • Working with junior QS's and Project Managers to protect margin and catch issues early

    Where you'll be doing it
    The company has been delivering mechanical and electrical building services for over forty years, working across the UK and Ireland including flagship projects from landmark commercial projects to industrial. You'd be covering commercial delivery across the region's live project portfolio — including this industrial expansion — not just one job in isolation.

    What you'll need
    • Degree in a commercial related field, ideally Quantity Surveying or else equivalent experience (e.g. working your way from the tools into a Mechanical and Electrical / MEP Quantity Surveyor role)
    • Strong negotiating skills and solid commercial awareness
    • Experience administering different forms of contract, including NEC
    • Comfortable owning monthly reporting to Board level, not just producing it

    What you'll get
    Genuine visibility across a live, high-value regional portfolio, direct reporting access to Director level, and backing from a contractor with 40+ years in the industry and the accreditations (ISO 9001, Safe Contractor, NICEIC) to prove it.

    How to apply
    Send your CV, or if you'd rather talk it through first, message me directly.
