Their services include demolition, sub structure and super structure works and their strong reputation for successfully completing challenging projects with values ranging up to £30M, has been built on delivery and trust.

All of their operational and surveying teams operate out of their Central London office, which offers their employees the ability to jump on the train (if not walk) to their sites within 30 minutes. The benefit of this allows complete cooperation across all departments, creating a stream lined process and full team approach.

Key responsibilities will include tracking the financial performance of projects against tender budgets and providing CVR’s and forecasts to the Directors on a monthly basis; procuring sub-contractors, plant and material expenditure where possible; supporting the pre-contracts team at tender stage on projects, cost planning and negotiating terms of contract; dealing directly with clients and their team with respect to valuing their on-going accounts in terms of both measured works and any valuations which may occur; working closely with Project Manager(s) and Contracts Director(s) to ensure the commercial success of the day to day contracting activities within the region and being the direct report to members within the commercial team.

About the requirements:

In order to be considered for this opportunity, you will need to be degree qualified in Quantity Surveying, Commercial Management or similar. Additionally, you must have proven experience of working at this senior level whilst employed by a specialist subcontractor or main contractor in the South East and packages must have covered general enabling works (demolition, substructure and Superstructure), or civil engineering, with values ranging up to £30M. Furthermore, as this is a permanent opportunity, it is essential that you are able to demonstrate longevity in the workplace, holding each previous appointment for a minimum of 2 years and must reside within commutable distance of Central London.

About the benefits and rewards:

For this permanent opportunity, my client is targeting professionals looking to earn anywhere from £80,000 to £95,000 per annum however there may be flexibility on this as the specific salary will depend on experience and suitability. Furthermore, there will be a generous package offered in addition to the usual benefits associated with a large successful contractor.

How to apply:

If interested in this opportunity, please send a copy of your CV to me or call the main office landline to discuss further on a confidential basis
