The Company: We are working with a leading national Construction Group whose North West Regional Construction business has created a great reputation for delivering varied and interesting projects for clients based in the North West of England. 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.

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.
