Salary: Competitive, based on experience
Industry: Structural Steel / Engineering / Industrial

I’m working with a specialist structural steel company known for delivering complex, heavy engineering projects across the UK. Their portfolio includes large-scale structural steel frameworks, industrial chimneys, and engineered steel structures for energy, MOD, and industrial sectors.

They are looking to appoint an experienced Quantity Surveyor who also has a solid understanding of Contracts Management to join their commercial team.

Role Overview:

You’ll be responsible for overseeing all commercial and contractual aspects of major steelwork projects, from pre-contract to final account. This is a key role with strong visibility across the business, offering long-term progression within a dynamic and growing company.

Key Responsibilities:

*

Full cost management across steelwork projects, including procurement, valuations, and final accounts

*

Administering contracts and managing variations, claims, and contractual obligations

*

Working closely with clients, subcontractors, and the internal team to ensure commercial success

*

Supporting project delivery with contract negotiation and compliance

*

Monitoring project profitability, risk, and performance

*

Supporting tender processes and cost planning where required

Requirements:

*

Exposure to contracts management duties is highly desirable

This is an excellent opportunity for a commercially strong QS looking to expand into contract management, or someone already straddling both functions looking for a more senior, autonomous role.
