Quantity Surveyor
Not every Quantity Surveying role gives you the chance to get involved in nationally important infrastructure projects from day one.
This one does.
I'm working with a well-established contractor delivering civil engineering, water infrastructure and maintenance projects across the UK. Their work supports major utility providers and public sector clients, covering everything from pipelines and drainage schemes through to pumping stations, treatment facilities and wider infrastructure improvements.
Due to continued growth, they're looking to bring in a Graduate or Assistant Quantity Surveyor to join their commercial team in North Yorkshire.
This is an excellent opportunity for someone at the beginning of their QS career who wants exposure to real projects, direct mentoring from experienced commercial professionals and a clear route for progression.
You'll be joining a business where people tend to stay, develop and build long-term careers. The company has built an excellent reputation within the infrastructure sector and continues to secure a strong pipeline of work across the region and beyond.
What you'll be doing
Assisting with project cost management from inception through to final account
Supporting the preparation of applications, valuations and commercial reporting
Helping manage subcontractor packages and payments
Assisting with variations, compensation events and change management
Supporting monthly CVRs and cost forecasting
Working closely with operational teams on live infrastructure projects
Developing your understanding of NEC contracts and commercial managementWhat they're looking for
Quantity Surveying degree or HNC/HND qualification
Graduate level or up to 3 years' industry experience
Interest in infrastructure, utilities, civil engineering or water projects
Strong communication skills and willingness to learn
Good commercial awareness and attention to detail
Full UK driving licence preferredWhy this role?
There are plenty of QS opportunities out there. Very few offer the combination of:
Exposure to major infrastructure and utility projects
Supportive mentoring from experienced commercial leaders
Long-term career progression within a growing business
Opportunity to work across a diverse range of civil engineering projects
Stability, investment and a healthy order book
If you're looking for a role where you'll genuinely develop your commercial skills rather than spend your first two years updating spreadsheets, this is worth a conversation.
