They have excellent relationships with their clients that means they enjoy a good proportion of repeat, negotiated business and are also members of a number of key public sector, procurement frameworks. They are a very financially stable business, often make double digit margins on their projects, have an excellent supply chain who they pay promptly and treat with respect (we know this from our own experience) and staff turnover is very low. The Role: They are now in a position to add to their Commercial team due to a number of recent project awards and a healthy pipeline of future work due to start on site over the course of 2026. Specifically, they have recently secured a large new build project based in Cumbria and want to recruit a Project QS to work with a Senior Quantity Surveyor and Assistant QSs to oversee the commercial aspects of the scheme.

Initially, you will procure packages of work then oversee the construction through to final accounts. You will also be supported by a visiting Commercial Manager. You will work closely with the operations and technical teams to reach a successful commercial outcome on the project. If you are based in Cumbria you can be site based full time, they are also open to recruiting someone based in the North West of England who could split their time between the site and their Manchester based head office. They would pay this person a lodging and food and drinks allowance for any nights spent lodging near the project. You: They would like to recruit a Quantity Surveyor who has previously worked on building projects and would also consider experienced Intermediate QSs who are ready to step up into a Project QS role. You will be familiar with Construction Contracts and have a good understanding of construction methodologies. Rewards: You will receive a generous salary and a benefits package including a realistic bonus scheme that rewards endeavour, annual pay rise and review, lodge and food allowance and family friendly benefits. You will be working with a company who are known as one of the best contractors in the UK, with a brilliant training and development programme and a senior commercial team who have all progressed through the ranks. They're a real meritocracy. They can provide a challenging and supportive working environment who have a really healthy pipeline of work, a very healthy balance sheet, who value and support their staff. Excellent opportunities for progression in a highly successful region of a leading National Construction Group.
