Full job description

Location: Barnet Head Office

Job Type: Full-time, Permanent

Salary: £30,000–£35,000 depending on experience

Working Pattern: Office-based, with day release considered for relevant studies

Sector: Construction / Social Housing / Disrepair / Planned & Responsive Works

Milestone is looking for a Junior / Assistant Quantity Surveyor to join our commercial team, working on a long-term social housing disrepair contract.

This is a great opportunity for someone with around 1–2 years’ quantity surveying or commercial experience, or someone currently studying quantity surveying or a construction-related course who is looking to develop within a busy, practical and fast-moving construction environment.

The role will be based from our Barnet Head Office and will support the commercial delivery of a high-volume disrepair workstream for Haringey Council, working closely with an experienced Quantity Surveyor and a strong operational team.

The contract involves a large number of low to mid-value construction works, typically ranging from £2,000 to £15,000 per order, with an annual value of approximately £1.5m. This gives the successful candidate excellent exposure to real construction works, legal disrepair cases, client engagement, subcontractor management, valuations and NHF Schedule pricing.

This is not just an admin role. The successful candidate will be involved in the day-to-day commercial running of the workstream, with support, training and supervision provided. There is a clear opportunity to grow into a more independent Quantity Surveyor role over time.

The Role

The Junior / Assistant Quantity Surveyor will support the commercial management of a busy social housing disrepair contract, including pricing, valuations, subcontractor applications and work order agreement.

Key duties will include:

Pricing works using the NHF Schedule of Rates
Preparing and managing pricing schedules in Excel
Reviewing validation reports from the operational team and converting these into priced works
Agreeing work order values with the client
Preparing and supporting client valuations
Reviewing subcontractor applications and payment submissions
Supporting variation pricing and commercial change control
Maintaining accurate commercial records and trackers
Liaising with the operational team, supervisors, subcontractors and client representatives
Supporting the QS with monthly valuations, reporting and contract administration
Assisting with the commercial management of legal disrepair cases
Helping ensure works are priced, valued and agreed correctly and promptly
Building knowledge of social housing, disrepair, NHF Schedule pricing and high-volume construction workstreams

About You

We are looking for someone who is smart, driven, organised and keen to build a long-term career in quantity surveying.

The ideal candidate will have:

Around 1–2 years’ experience in quantity surveying, commercial support, estimating or construction administration
Some understanding of construction, repairs, maintenance, refurbishment or social housing works
Good Excel ability and confidence working with schedules, trackers and pricing sheets
Strong attention to detail
Good communication skills and confidence dealing with internal and external teams
A proactive attitude and willingness to take ownership of day-to-day tasks
The ability to work in a busy environment with support from the QS and operational team
An interest in developing into a more independent QS role over time

Experience with the NHF Schedule of Rates, social housing, disrepair, responsive repairs or planned works would be beneficial, but is not essential. Full support and training will be provided.

A relevant qualification, degree, HNC/HND or current study in quantity surveying, commercial management or construction would be beneficial, but is not essential. We are equally interested in someone with the right attitude, work ethic and ability to learn.

Location / Travel

This role is based from our Barnet Head Office and is primarily office-based.

Candidates should be able to commute reliably to Barnet, ideally within around one hour’s travel.

A driving licence would be preferable, but is not essential provided the candidate can reliably travel to the office. Occasional site or client visits may be required.

What We Offer

Competitive salary depending on experience
Full-time, permanent role
Support from an experienced Quantity Surveyor
Exposure to a long-term MTC / social housing contract
Excellent practical experience in disrepair, NHF pricing, valuations and subcontractor management
Clear career progression opportunities
Training and development support
Opportunity for day release where relevant to the role
Company pension
Holiday entitlement
Business mileage where applicable
Laptop, phone and equipment provided
Supportive office and operational team environment

Milestone has a strong track record of developing junior commercial staff into more senior roles.

This is a key role within the business and would suit someone ambitious who wants to progress, take ownership and build a career in construction commercial management.

How to Apply

Please apply with your CV and a short covering note setting out your experience and why you are interested in the role.

Pay: £30,000.00-£35,000.00 per year

1. Are you able to reliably commute to our Barnet Head Office on a full-time basis?
2. Do you have any quantity surveying, estimating, commercial or construction experience?
3. Are you currently studying, or have you completed, a construction or quantity surveying related qualification?
