Full job description

Company Overview

Prem Group is building a specialist technical services group focused on the building envelope covering access, roofing, cladding, surveys, and remedial works.

We don’t operate like a traditional contractor. We diagnose problems, design solutions, and deliver high-quality work through specialist knowledge and strong commercial control.

Our aim is simple: be the go-to team for solving complex building envelope problems.

About the Role

This is not a traditional Trainee or Assistant QS role where you are stuck doing take-offs or supporting from the sidelines.

As a Trainee / Assistant Quantity Surveyor, you will sit between project delivery and commercial management, supporting the financial performance of projects while developing into a fully capable, commercially aware QS.

This role blends:

Project coordination
Commercial support
Cost tracking and financial control
Applications for payment and valuations

You won’t just be learning, you’ll be contributing to real project profitability and commercial decisions from day one.

What You’ll Be Doing

Supporting the preparation of applications for payment
Assisting with valuations, variations, and commercial tracking
Monitoring project costs vs budgets
Supporting subcontractor management and payments
Assisting in forecasting and cash flow tracking
Maintaining commercial and contractual records
Liaising with site teams, Project Executives, and Finance
Supporting project delivery with commercial insight
Identifying risks, variances, and opportunities

What This Role Really Is

This role sits between:

Project Executive
Assistant Quantity Surveyor
Quantity Surveyor

You are not just supporting; you are developing into someone who understands:

How projects run
How projects make money
How projects stay profitable

About You

We are not looking for someone who just wants a “trainee” title.

We are looking for someone who:

Has some experience in construction, project coordination, or commercial support
Has exposure to applications, invoicing, or project costs
Wants to build a career in commercial / QS roles
Is highly organised and detail-driven
Takes ownership of their work
Is proactive and eager to learn
Can operate in a fast-paced, high-expectation environment

What You’ll Get

£28,000 – £40,000 salary (depending on experience)
Clear pathway into Quantity Surveyor / Commercial Manager roles
Hands-on exposure to live commercial projects
Ongoing training and development
28 days holiday plus benefits

Training & Development

You will gain:

Strong understanding of commercial construction processes
Hands-on experience with applications, valuations, and cost control
Financial awareness of project delivery
A clear pathway into a fully-fledged QS role

Why This Role Works

You are involved in real commercial decisions early
You gain a highly valuable, transferable skillset
You are not limited to admin or theory
You are part of a commercially driven business

The Reality

This is a performance-driven role:

You will be expected to learn quickly
You will be trusted with responsibility
You will need to be organised and detail-focused

If you want a slow, low-responsibility trainee role, this isn’t it. If you want progression, exposure, and commercial ownership, it is.
