🏗️ Leading UK Property Services Company | Long-Term Retrofit Programme

One of the UK’s leading property services companies is seeking a Project Quantity Surveyor to play a key role in the commercial delivery of a high-profile Social Housing Decarbonisation Fund (SHDF) programme in partnership with Sanctuary Housing.

This is an exciting opportunity to join a top-tier contractor known for delivering high-impact retrofit, energy efficiency, and planned refurbishment schemes across the UK.

The Project:

*

Initial Phase: £4m SHDF retrofit project in CB6, Cambridgeshire, running for approx. 9 months

*

*

Long-term, secure pipeline of works with a major housing association client

The Role:

As Project Quantity Surveyor, you’ll lead on all commercial aspects of the schemes — managing subcontractor packages, cost reporting, variations, and supporting strong financial delivery throughout the project lifecycle.

You’ll work closely with delivery teams, the client (Sanctuary Housing), and internal stakeholders to ensure these critical decarbonisation works are delivered efficiently, safely, and within budget.

What We’re Looking For:

✅ Strong background in Social Housing refurbishments, planned works, or retrofit
✅ SHDF or energy efficiency retrofit experience is a bonus – but not essential
✅ Solid commercial management skills from pre-construction through to final account
✅ Confident working in live, resident-occupied environments

What’s on Offer:

💰 Highly competitive salary (above market rate)
🚗 Car allowance or car scheme
🩺 Private healthcare
💼 8% employer pension contribution
👶 Enhanced family policies: 6 months maternity / 3 months paternity leave
🎁 Extensive benefits package & ongoing CPD support
📈 Long-term project pipeline with genuine career progression

This is a fantastic opportunity to be part of a major retrofit programme that’s making a real difference in people’s lives — while progressing your own career with one of the most respected names in the industry.
