About you You are early in your Quantity Surveying career and you want to be around people who will actually teach you the job properly. You might have finished a Quantity Surveying degree and picked up a year or two of experience with a contractor or developer. You might also have completed a placement year and want your first full time Assistant Quantity Surveyor role where you can build real commercial experience. You enjoy the numbers side of construction but you also like getting out to site, speaking with project teams and understanding how a job really works. You want exposure to procurement, cost reporting, subcontractor management and the commercial decisions that shape a project. Most importantly, you want to work somewhere that will trust you with responsibility and help you become a well rounded Quantity Surveyor. Your experience You will probably have a Quantity Surveying degree or a similar construction related qualification. You will have around one to three years of experience in a construction or commercial environment. A placement year within a contractor or developer would also be relevant. You should already have some exposure to areas such as cost planning, subcontractor procurement, valuations, or commercial reporting. You will be comfortable using Microsoft Excel and Microsoft Office and able to interpret construction drawings and specifications. Some familiarity with construction contracts such as JCT would be useful, along with an understanding of how project costs, labour rates and materials affect the overall commercial performance of a job. A full driving licence and access to a car is important as the role will involve visiting sites. What you will be doing with your experience You will support the commercial team across a range of residential and mixed use construction projects. Your role as an Assistant Quantity Surveyor will include helping to prepare cost estimates and budget forecasts for new build and refurbishment developments. You will review drawings and tender documents, help prepare subcontract packages and analyse quotations from subcontractors and suppliers. You will assist with subcontractor procurement, preparing subcontract orders and supporting the wider commercial process. As projects move forward you will help monitor project costs against budgets, assist with monthly valuations and contribute to cost reporting and cash flow forecasting. The role also includes regular site visits where you will review progress, support valuations and work closely with project managers and site managers to keep projects commercially on track. You will also gain exposure to variations, change management and value engineering so you can understand how commercial decisions influence project delivery. About the business This is a growing construction company delivering residential and mixed use developments across the region. The business operates with a hands on leadership team and a commercial structure that allows junior staff to learn directly from experienced Quantity Surveyors and Commercial Managers. Projects typically involve new build housing and refurbishment schemes where cost control, procurement and strong commercial management are critical. The environment is supportive but commercially focused. People are expected to contribute, learn quickly and develop into capable construction professionals. For someone early in their Quantity Surveying career it offers strong exposure to real project work rather than being stuck behind a desk doing spreadsheets all day.
