We’re now looking for a Quantity Surveyor to join our Westminster Planned team and support the successful delivery of planned maintenance, responsive repairs, refurbishment and asset management projects.
We’re looking for a commercially astute Quantity Surveyor to join our high-performing Westminster Planned team.
About the Role
As Quantity Surveyor, you’ll take responsibility for the day-to-day commercial control, reporting and management of one or more contracts, ensuring strong financial performance, effective risk management and commercial compliance throughout the project lifecycle.
Working closely with operational teams, procurement and clients, you’ll play a critical role in maximising contract profitability, managing commercial risks and driving successful project outcomes, whilst providing effective line management and development support to a member of the commercial team.
As Quantity Surveyor, you will be responsible for managing the commercial performance of contracts from award through to final account, ensuring projects are delivered profitably and in line with contractual requirements. This includes producing and maintaining CVRs, forecasts, cash flow forecasts and commercial reports, while managing applications, valuations, invoicing and cash collection activities.
You will oversee subcontractor accounts, payments and contractual compliance, ensuring all commercial obligations are fulfilled and risks are effectively managed. A key part of the role will involve identifying and mitigating commercial risks to protect profitability and safeguard the business’s reputation.
You’ll manage variations, extensions of time, loss and expense claims, and final accounts, while supporting procurement activities to secure best value and maximise buying gains. You will also ensure robust contract administration and compliance with commercial management processes across your projects.
About You
We’re looking for a qualified Quantity Surveyor with an NVQ Level 6 in Quantity Surveying and proven experience within the social housing sector, particularly across repairs and maintenance (R&M) contracts.
You’ll have a strong track record of managing CVRs, forecasts and final accounts, with the commercial awareness to drive value, control costs and support successful contract delivery.
Experience working on planned works programmes is highly desirable, and knowledge of fire risk assessment (FRA) works and kitchen and bathroom (K&B) refurbishment projects would be advantageous.
Above all, you’ll be a commercially focused professional who can confidently manage multiple priorities, build effective stakeholder relationships and contribute to the continued success of our commercial team.
Due to nature of the role, you must hold a valid UK driving licence.
