Quantity Surveyor

Quantity Surveyor | Main Contractor | Refurbishment & Maintenance | Permanent | Immediate   A long-standing QS is retiring.   That creates an opportunity for someone who wants to join a steady, close-knit contractor where longevity is part of the culture.   This is proper refurbishment contracting. Occupied buildings. Repeat clients. Prime London postcodes. Tight sites. High expectations.   There are minimal layers in the commercial structure. It’s hands-on surveying in a business where everyone pulls their weight - including the MD.   The Role • Take over a live portfolio of projects following a planned retirement • External, internal and maintenance works • Projects typically up to £4m in value • Office based in Chingford • Work alongside two QSs and an Estimator (who also supports commercially) • Exposure across full project lifecycle - ­from tender handover to final account   What they’re looking for • QS experience within a main contractor environment • Comfortable managing multiple smaller projects simultaneously • Strong on subcontractor accounts, variations and final accounts • Able to operate in a small-team setting where communication matters • Someone steady, practical and commercially reliable   This suits someone who enjoys autonomy - but doesn’t need layers of hierarchy.   The Business A small, established contractor delivering refurbishment and maintenance works across prime London locations, particularly Chelsea.   Their work is relationship-driven with much of it being repeat business . This leads to quality and reliability matter more than flashy turnover.   It’s a stable environment - people build careers here. Three team members are retiring this year, which tells you something about tenure and loyalty.   The commercial team is tight-knit: • Two QSs • An Estimator who supports surveying It’s collaborative. It’s straightforward. It’s long-term.   Interested? Michael Ogunyankin | (phone number removed) | (url removed)
