Excellent opportunity for an Ambitious Quantity Surveyor looking to further his or her experience with a smaller specialist main contractor, initially working on a new build hotel scheme on the South Coast.

The role is to work as No1 Surveyor for the project reporting to the Commercial Manager. Work will be undertaken on a flexible location basis, working between home, the office near Southampton, Hampshire and on site. This is applicable in the current climate and for the foreseeable future.

Reporting to Commercial Manager, you will be responsible for management of all commercial aspects including: sub-contract procurement, management of sub-contractor accounts, undertaking measurement and valuations for payments, pricing and agreeing variations, applications to client for interim payments, input to financial forecasting and CVRs, settlement of subcontractor final accounts, through to the agreement of client final account.

This is a superb opportunity to work with this smaller main contractor and run your own project, potentially for the first time if you come from a larger Tier 1 main contractor typically undertaking larger schemes where progression to the No1 spot can take longer to achieve.
