Assistant Quantity Surveyor
About the Opportunity:
I am looking for an Assistant Quantity Surveyor interested in joining a leading concrete frame and groundwork subcontractor. Your position in the business will report either to a senior quantity surveyor or commercial manager within the surveying team and you will be responsible for helping oversee either individual or a variety of concrete frame, basement, and groundwork packages from award through to final account. There is room for progression within this business as they are currently turning over around £250 million per annum across the country and they are still growing. I am looking for career-focused individuals who want the opportunity to be part of a close-knit team that are all working towards building a great business in this competitive sector. So, if you are a concrete frame or groundwork assistant quantity surveyor and you want to join one of the absolute best businesses in this sector with lots of opportunities for people to develop, this could be the perfect option.
P.S. If this company doesn’t fit what you are looking for, please still contact me as I have at least 17 other quantity surveying positions available with RC frame and groundwork subcontractors based in and around London.
About the Company:
This business is without doubt one of the best in this sector. They specialise in taking projects from enabling works through to the completion of the frame. With focused teams handling remediation, demolition, groundwork, and concrete frame packages, they are well-equipped to handle packages ranging from £5 million to £50 million (or above) each. Their client base includes top-tier developers, main contractors, and direct users, and their sectors of work include residential, commercial, energy, infrastructure, and industrial. They have offices in and around London, with a large proportion of their workload inside the M25.
On a personal note, I work very closely with this business not only because of their size and capability but also because of their vision, goals, and attitude towards what they do and how they do it. From the owners to the site staff, there is a focus on standing out as one of the best at what they do. Their constant reinvestment to boost innovation, improvement, and success has helped them reach their current standings and I can see them climbing even further in the years to come. As a recruiter, a big thing for me is the feedback I receive from the people I place with businesses, and once again this business excels, with glowing comments coming back from all levels, mentioning excitement around what they are accomplishing, combined with positivity around how their team work together. This is a fantastic business to consider career opportunities with, no matter how you look at it.
About the Requirements:
To be successful individuals need to have worked for rival concrete frame or groundwork subcontractors in the UK as an Assistant Quantity Surveyor. Your hard work will be rewarded and opportunity will be there but previous experience in this sector is a must. Due to the technical nature of the position, it is also crucial that all applicants are degree-qualified in quantity surveying (or currently working towards a degree). And due to the location of our client’s office and projects, it is also advisable that applicants are based in or around the London/South East area (or have the ability to be based near there for work). Travel will include projects all over London. Hybrid working is available as you progress in experience, with a number of the surveyors splitting their time working from the office, sites, or remotely, but this may only be available after probation periods have been completed and trust has been established.
About the Benefits:
For this opportunity, I am targeting someone looking to earn between £40,000 to £50,000 per annum (depending how much experience you have gained as an Assistant QS). This bracket is flexible and starting figures will be based on experience and previous history but in addition to this, our client is offering a comprehensive package including the usual’s such as pension, travel allowance, and also a good bonus scheme.
If you would prefer a self-employed payment method, we can consider people on a limited company (or similar) basis. Day rates will be negotiated to reach a similar annual amount.
But aside from the earning potential, this opportunity really does offer the right individual exciting career options with a fantastic organisation
