We're looking for a Building Surveyor who wants more than a seat at the table — someone ready to take real ownership of a commercial property portfolio, lead projects from concept to completion, and be the technical authority that consultants and contractors are held to.
This isn't a back-office surveying role. You'll be out front: diagnosing defects, driving procurement, managing budgets and programmes, and making the calls that protect asset value and deliver real commercial results. If you're motivated by high-quality work that has a tangible, visible impact — and you have the confidence to challenge and be challenged — this is your next move.
- Leading refurbishment, repair and development projects across the portfolio, from inception through to handover
- Managing project budgets, cashflows and programmes to keep delivery on track and on plan
- Running tight contract administration — instructions, variations, approvals, certificates and records
- Ensuring statutory compliance across planning, Building Control, CDM and Party Wall matters
- Providing technical and commercial advice on defects, refurbishment strategy and asset decisions
- Appointing and leading consultants, contractors and design teams — and holding them to account
- Partnering with Facilities Management and Asset Managers to keep spend controlled and value-led
Strong building surveying experience within commercial property:
- A track record of delivering projects, administering contracts and controlling cost
- Solid technical knowledge of construction, refurbishment and defect diagnosis
- Working knowledge of CDM, Building Control, planning and Party Wall requirements
- The confidence to manage — and challenge — consultants and contractors
- Sharp documentation discipline and the ability to juggle multiple projects without losing sight of detail
You'll have real autonomy on your projects, genuine influence over asset outcomes, and the backing to hold everyone — including yourself — to a high standard.
