My client is a specialist contractor with a portfolio of interesting projects across the UK. Their most recent win is a large civil engineering infrastructure package in Manchester which could be worth anywhere between 25-50 m (tbc). This project is due to commence in the next couple of months. The ideal candidate will come from a subcontracting background and have an in-depth understanding of earth/groundworks and reinforced concrete works. This will ideally be on infrastructure projects. You could have either a min or subcontracting background and the key is that you have a strong understanding/knowledge of NEC contracts. If successful you will take on further schemes across the Midlands/North/North West. You will be looking after team of less experienced Quantity Surveyors and will be able to use your knowledge and experience to assist them in thriving within the business. This is a fantastic opportunity to join a very successful and stable organisation on what will be one of their flagship projects to date. You will be the first commercial acquisition at this level in the region and this will give you a 'blank canvass' on which to work.
