Quantity Surveyor

Quantity Surveyor

Are you an experienced Quantity Surveyor with a strong background in Utilities, Civil, or Mechanical Engineering, ideally within the water industry? Are you experienced managing high-volume, low-value works, as well as knowledge of NEC contract schemes and subcontractor management?

I have an exciting opportunity for a Quantity Surveyor to join a well-established contractor working on long-term framework projects in Kent

The Role:
As a Quantity Surveyor, you will gain invaluable experience and exposure to Capital & Operation Expenditure budgets and the balance between the two, understanding Total Expenditure and the ever-increasing role it plays in the utilities environment

Responsibilities:

* Generating weekly revenue and cost reports

* Controlling submissions of daily completed jobs

* Producing ‘Schedule of Rates’

* Reconciling Subcontractor costs and preparing payment certificates

* Liaising with Operations and Planning to monitor job progress and scope changes

* Reviewing scheme works to ensure targets are on track to be achieved

* Pricing completed jobs for high volume works

* Developing relationships with clients to 'Work In Progress' days

* Analysing weekly and monthly cost and revenue data

You’ll need to be enthusiastic, proactive, and a great problem solver, with excellent communication and relationship-building skills. Strong Microsoft Excel expertise is essential, including proficiency in formulas, pivot tables, and VLOOKUPs, along with a keen eye for data integrity and financial analysis.

A degree in Quantity Surveying or an HNC/HND in Civil or Mechanical Engineering with commercial management experience would be highly desirable
