Full job description

A first commercial role with responsibility from the start. You will price live work, agree accounts with subcontractors and watch the numbers you produce turn into finished buildings.

The Role

You will work alongside our commercial team on live projects, from pre construction through to final account. The role is based at our Sway, Lymington office with regular site visits. You will report to our Quantity Surveyor.

Prepare cost estimates, bills of quantities and interim valuations
Obtain quotes, compare subcontractor tenders and make a recommendation
Track project costs against budget and explain the variances
Prepare and agree subcontractor accounts and final accounts
Process applications for payment and subcontractor payments
Keep cost records and commercial documentation accurate and current
Deal directly with site teams, subcontractors and suppliers on commercial matters

Your First Twelve Months

We will not leave you to work out what good looks like. This is what we expect the first year to look like.

Months 1 to 3. Learn our cost coding, processes and live sites. Shadow take offs and valuations.
Months 4 to 6. Run your own take offs and tender comparisons, reviewed before issue.
Months 7 to 12. Own the commercial reporting on a project of your own, with support alongside you.

Attention to detail. Small errors in this job cost money
Clear written and verbal communication, on site as well as in the office
Confident in Microsoft Excel
Willing to say when you do not know something, rather than guess
Full UK driving licence and use of a vehicle. Travel between sites and the office is a daily part of the job
Either some experience in a quantity surveying, commercial or construction role, or a relevant qualification or placement

Helpful, but we will teach you

HNC, HND or degree in quantity surveying or commercial management, held or in progress
Experience of cost or measurement software
Site experience of any kind, including a trade background

What We Offer

Salary of £30,000 to £35,000 depending on experience
30 days holiday including bank holidays
Full study support towards a relevant qualification, including course fees and day release, once you are in post
A clear route to Quantity Surveyor as you take on more
A fun yet professional team dedicated to successful projects
Direct access to the director and the wider team. Small firm, no layers to work through
Workplace pension
Work on projects that you will be proud of

Being Straight With You

We are a small team, so you will be given work before you feel completely ready for it. The pace is quick and priorities change during the day. If you want a job where every task arrives fully formed, this is not it. If you want to be trusted early and learn fast, it is.
