The Opportunity
An established construction consultancy is looking for a Chartered Building Surveyor or Quantity Surveyor who wants to move into development monitoring.
The team has a sustained flow of new instructions from banks and other lenders. It includes more than 30 monitoring specialists nationally, so you would be joining people who can train and support you as you learn the discipline.
You’ll advise lenders on development risks across a portfolio of mainly residential schemes, alongside hotel and commercial projects. As your experience grows, you’ll take responsibility for your own instructions, from the initial review through construction and completion.
The Role
Prepare initial development monitoring reports for lenders

Experience working in a consultancy
A sound understanding of construction processes, costs and project risk
Clear report writing and confident client communication
A genuine interest in building a career in development monitoring

Why Apply?
Make the move into development monitoring with training from an experienced team
Work with banks and other lenders on a varied portfolio of developments
Build towards managing your own projects and lender relationships
Join a national monitoring team with more than 30 specialists
Work flexibly between home, sites and the West End office
