Role: Associate/Associate Director - Building Surveyor
Location: Birmingham (Hybrid - 3 Days Office/Site)

Overview

We're working with a respected commercial property consultancy looking to appoint an Associate Director-level Building Surveyor to its Birmingham office. With a diverse, instruction-rich portfolio across the commercial sector and a collaborative team environment, this role is ideal for someone seeking technical leadership without the pressure of fee generation targets.

You'll be joining a multi-disciplinary team of over 20 staff, including Building Surveyors, M&E consultants, and Quantity Surveyors, working together to deliver high-quality consultancy and project work across a wide range of assets.



Requirements & Responsibilities

As Associate Director, you'll take responsibility for delivering key technical services across the full building consultancy spectrum. Your work will span a variety of high-value commercial projects, including office, retail, industrial, and mixed-use schemes.

Your responsibilities will include:

  • Leading on dilapidations (landlord and tenant side)

  • Overseeing contract administration and project oversight

  • Conducting technical due diligence and acquisition surveys

  • Managing client relationships and delivery of commercial building surveys

  • Coordinating with internal M&E and QS teams to ensure quality and compliance

  • Supporting junior surveyors through mentoring and project exposure

This is a delivery-focused role with no business development requirements at this level. You'll be valued for your technical capability and client service.



What You'll Need

This role is ideal for an experienced surveyor from a consultancy background who's ready to step into a senior, hands-on position. You should have:

  • MRICS qualification

  • Strong experience across core building surveying services

  • A background in consultancy or a multidisciplinary practice (essential)

  • Excellent working knowledge of commercial property

  • Confidence managing projects independently and coordinating with internal teams

  • A collaborative, practical approach with strong client-facing skills
