With decades of experience delivering small to large‑scale mechanical engineering projects across sectors including building products, aggregates, energy, recycling, utilities and more, the company has earned a reputation for taking on—and successfully delivering—the most challenging assignments.

Its commitment to innovation, quality and problem‑solving continues to strengthen its position as the go‑to specialist for demanding engineering projects across the UK

Role Purpose

· Support monitoring of project expenditure against approved budgets.

· Produce accurate financial forecasts and cost reporting for senior management.

· Prepare and negotiate final accounts with clients and subcontractors.

· Support financial audits and maintain comprehensive commercial records.

Project Collaboration

· Work closely with Project Managers, Engineers, Site Managers and Design teams throughout project delivery.

· Attend internal progress meetings, client meetings and commercial reviews.

· Provide commercial input during project planning, programming and risk management activities.

· Support tender reviews and provide commercial feedback to estimating teams.

Leadership & Continuous Improvement

· Mentor and support Assistant Quantity Surveyors and junior commercial staff.

· Promote best practice in commercial management across the business.

· Contribute to the continuous improvement of commercial systems, procedures and reporting.

Skills & Experience Required

· Proven experience as a Quantity Surveyor within engineering, construction or heavy industrial sectors.

· Strong knowledge of JCT, NEC and other standard forms of contract.

· Excellent commercial awareness with strong negotiation and analytical skills.

· Experience managing subcontract procurement, valuations and final accounts.

· Proficient in Microsoft Excel and commercial management software.

· Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills.

Desirable

· Chartered (MRICS) or actively working towards Chartered status.

· Experience in mechanical engineering, process plant, bulk materials handling or heavy industrial projects.

· Understanding of fabrication, off-site manufacturing and multidisciplinary project delivery.

· Knowledge of project controls, cost forecasting and earned value principles.

· Experience supporting tender submissions and pre-contract commercial activities.

· Personal Attributes

· Highly organised with excellent attention to detail.

· Commercially astute with strong business acumen.

· Calm under pressure and capable of managing multiple priorities.

· Proactive and solutions focused, aligned with Wright Engineering's "we do difficult" culture.
