Quantity Surveyor – Bespoke Interiors / Specialist Subcontracting
London | £70,000–£80,000 | Permanent
The Role
- Commercial management from pre-contract through delivery and final account
- Preparing valuations and applications for payment
- Identifying, pricing and negotiating variations
- Managing project costs, budgets and commercial performance
- Producing accurate cost reports and forecasts
- Supporting procurement and subcontractor appointments
- Reviewing contracts and commercial documentation

What We're Looking For

Candidates from bespoke joinery, high-end fit-out, luxury residential interiors, furniture and cabinetry, stone, architectural metalwork or specialist finishes would be particularly interesting.
This is less suited to somebody whose experience has been entirely within general housebuilding or a traditional main contractor environment without significant responsibility for specialist subcontract packages.
About You
You’ll be commercially sharp, organised and confident working on complex bespoke projects where drawings, specifications and client requirements can evolve throughout delivery.
You’ll need to quickly understand what has been bought, what has changed, what has been delivered and what needs to be commercially recovered.
You’ll be comfortable protecting the commercial position of a project while maintaining strong relationships with clients and delivery teams.
