Senior Quantity Surveyor

A growing, independent Cost and Project Management consultancy are looking for an experienced Senior Quantity Surveyor to join their team in South West London.

The Senior Quantity Surveyors Role

The successful Senior Quantity Surveyor will join a boutique consultancy with a strong reputation for delivering bespoke cost management services across a portfolio of high-profile developments. The practice is entering an exciting period of growth, with an increasing pipeline of projects and opportunities to expand its client base.

The business has traditionally focused on prime residential developments throughout Central London, working on substantial refurbishments, extensions, basement constructions and high-end private residences. Alongside this, the consultancy is expanding its involvement across leisure, gym, wellness, education and commercial projects, offering an increasingly varied project portfolio.

As Senior Quantity Surveyor, you’ll take ownership of projects from inception through to completion, delivering full pre and post-contract services. Responsibilities will include feasibility costing, cost planning, procurement, tendering, contract preparation, valuations, financial reporting and final accounts. You’ll also play an important role in managing client relationships, providing commercial advice and ensuring projects are delivered effectively.

This is a particularly interesting opportunity for someone who enjoys working within a smaller consultancy, where you’ll have genuine autonomy, direct access to the Director and the opportunity to influence the future direction of the practice. You’ll also have the chance to mentor junior surveyors, help develop the wider team and contribute to new business opportunities as the business continues to grow.

This role would suit a commercially astute Senior Quantity Surveyor who enjoys taking ownership of projects, building strong client relationships and wants to play a key role in the development of an ambitious boutique consultancy.
