Quantity Surveyor Chester Genuine Hybrid Working Most QS roles ask you to deliver decisions already made. This one gives you the opportunity to shape them. If you have built your career delivering major Design & Build projects but want greater influence over their commercial direction, this could be a natural next step. We are recruiting a Quantity Surveyor to join the Pre-Construction team of an established developer-contractor Based in Chester with genuine hybrid working, you will help shape major developments before they reach site, influencing cost, design, procurement, buildability and commercial viability. It is still very much a Quantity Surveyor role, but with one important difference: you will be involved at the point where your commercial expertise can have the greatest impact. Rather than inheriting a project once construction begins, you will work alongside development, design, technical and construction colleagues to ensure each scheme is commercially robust and positioned for successful delivery. What will you be doing? As part of the Pre-Construction team, you will support projects from their early development stages through to construction commencement Your role will include: Preparing and developing cost plans as designs evolve Assessing project costs, viability, risks and commercial opportunities Challenging design decisions and identifying more efficient solutions Working with development, design, technical and construction teams to improve buildability Using market intelligence and supply-chain input to inform project costs Supporting procurement strategies and the development of work packages Providing clear commercial advice to help colleagues make informed decisions Supporting a structured handover into the construction and delivery teams This is a highly collaborative role. You will not simply report the numbers. You will use them to challenge assumptions, guide decisions and improve project outcomes. What experience are we looking for? You may currently be working as a project-based Quantity Surveyor for a main contractor, developer-contractor or specialist in large-scale construction. What matters is that you understand how major Design & Build projects are commercially managed and have the confidence to apply that experience earlier in the project lifecycle You should have: Quantity Surveying experience on Design & Build projects valued at approximately £10m or above Experience of commercially managing complex construction projects Strong cost planning and commercial analysis skills An understanding of procurement, design development and construction delivery The ability to identify risk, challenge costs and communicate commercial information clearly The confidence to work collaboratively with technical, operational and development stakeholders We are equally interested in candidates with experience of other large-scale developments where repeatability, standardisation and programme efficiency are important, including: High-rise residential / Hotels / Offices / Mixed-use developments, or other multi-unit or Accommodation-led projects Why consider this opportunity? You will be involved before construction starts, giving you the opportunity to influence the decisions that determine how a development will be designed, procured and delivered Make the move into pre-construction Genuine hybrid working You will gain exposure to project viability, cost planning, design development, procurement strategy and commercial decision-making across the full pre-construction lifecycle Working within a developer-contractor environment means you will collaborate directly with the teams responsible for developing, designing and ultimately delivering each scheme Interested? If you are an experienced Quantity Surveyor with a background in £10m+ Design & Build projects and would like to influence developments before they reach site, we would like to hear from you. You may already work within pre-construction, or you may be looking to use your project-delivery experience in a different way. Either way, this is an opportunity to remain close to construction while gaining earlier involvement, broader commercial influence and the flexibility of hybrid working.
