Overseeing pre- and post-contract duties, including cost planning, risk management, and final accounts
Acting as the main point of contact for major clients
Supporting regional business development and work-winning activity
Mentoring and managing junior members of the QS team
Contributing to the broader leadership of the Bristol office

MRICS-qualified with a strong background in consultancy-side quantity surveying
Experience delivering complex projects in healthcare, defence, or commercial sectors
Proven leadership and team management skills
Strong commercial acumen and client-facing capability
Security clearance (or eligibility for clearance) is advantageous for defence work

£75,000 – £80,000 basic salary (DOE)
Car allowance + bonus scheme
27 days holiday + bank holidays
Private medical insurance + enhanced pension
Paid professional subscriptions and support with further development
Flexible hybrid working (typically 2-3 days in office or on-site)
