Jobs in Hale Barns

A well-established cost consultancy specialising in residential development is seeking a Senior Quantity Surveyor to join their team in Manchester. This is a fantastic opportunity for a chartered professional to step into a key role within a growing business that works with a mix of regional housebuilders, developers, and private clients.

The Senior Quantity Surveyor

The successful Senior Quantity Surveyor will be responsible for managing cost planning, procurement advice, and post-contract services across a variety of residential schemes, from small-scale developments to multi-phase housing projects. A background in estimating would be beneficial but is not essential, as the core focus remains on residential cost management.

This consultancy places a strong emphasis on technical quality and client service, and the Senior Quantity Surveyor will be expected to liaise directly with clients, attend meetings, and manage multiple projects with minimal supervision. There is scope to support junior staff, and progression into a leadership role is available for the right candidate.

The Senior Quantity Surveyor will work closely with both internal teams and external consultants, offering clear commercial insight across all stages of the project lifecycle.

Senior Quantity Surveyor candidates should have:

Full MRICS chartership (essential)
A degree in Quantity Surveying or related discipline
Strong experience in residential projects (developer or consultancy side)
Ability to manage projects independently and confidently liaise with clients
Estimating experience or a background in contractor environments (desirable but not essential)
Excellent communication, numeracy, and organisational skills
