About the Role
We are looking for a Quantity Surveyor to join an established and growing team based in Leicester.
This is an excellent opportunity for someone with a background in construction who brings a positive attitude, a flexible approach and a genuine willingness to get involved across different aspects of the business.
We are particularly interested in finding someone who is approachable, commercially minded and enjoys working as part of a team. While previous Quantity Surveying experience is important, we place just as much value on personality, attitude and the ability to adapt to the needs of the business.
Experience in pre-contract work and tendering would be a significant advantage, as would previous exposure to NSR/NFH projects or environments. Experience within social housing would also be beneficial.
Key Responsibilities
- Supporting the commercial and quantity surveying functions across construction projects.
- Assisting with pre-contract activities, tender preparation and tender submissions.
- Reviewing project costs, budgets and financial information.
- Preparing and reviewing valuations, variations and final accounts.
- Liaising with subcontractors, suppliers and internal project teams.
- Supporting cost control and identifying opportunities to improve commercial performance.
- Attending occasional site visits to support project delivery and maintain communication with site teams.
- Working collaboratively with colleagues across the business and providing support where required.
What We'r Looking For
- Previous experience in a Quantity Surveying or construction commercial role.
- A good understanding of the construction industry and commercial processes.
- Pre-contract and tendering experience would be highly desirable.
- NSR/NFH experience would be advantageous.
- Social housing experience would be a bonus.
- A positive, proactive and flexible attitude.
- Someone who is approachable, personable and enjoys being part of a team.
- A willingness to get involved, take ownership and support colleagues when needed.
- Strong communication and organisational skills.
- Someone who can work independently when required but understands the importance of teamwork.
We are more interested in finding the right person with the right attitude than insisting on a particular set of qualifications. Relevant industry experience, commercial understanding and a willingness to learn and develop are what matter most.
Location & Working Arrangements
- Based at the company's offices in Leicester, LE19 1WH.
- Predominantly office-based position.
- Occasional travel to construction sites will be required.
- Access to a vehicle and the ability to travel to site visits are essential.
Salary & Benefits
- £40,000–£50,000 per annum, depending on experience.
- Permanent position.
- Opportunity to join an established and supportive team.
- Varied role with exposure to different aspects of commercial and project work.
