Senior Building Surveyor/Associate Director
Kirsop and Company Ltd – St Albans, Hertfordshire
Are you ready to shape the future of a modern, forward-thinking private practice?
At Kirsop and Company Ltd, we do things differently. We combine technical excellence with commercial awareness, straight-talking advice, and a collaborative culture that genuinely values its people. As we continue to grow, we’re looking for an ambitious Senior Surveyor/ Associate Director to help lead the next chapter of our success.
The Opportunity
This is more than a senior surveying role. It’s a leadership position with influence, autonomy, and real impact.
You will work closely with the Directors to:
- Lead and grow key client relationships
- Deliver high-quality professional and project-led building surveying services
- Contribute to business strategy and growth initiatives
- Strengthen our presence in existing and emerging markets
We are a small progressive Chartered Building Surveying Practice established over 40 years ago, delivering high-quality professional and project services across the commercial and residential sectors. The opportunity requires experience and technical expertise but also ambition to take the Practice forward.
About You
We’re looking for someone who is:
- MRICS qualified with strong post-qualification experience
- Commercially astute and confident in winning and retaining work
- Experienced across core building surveying services (building surveys, dilapidations, contract administration, defect analysis, party wall negotiations and insurance claim management etc.) with a strong technical understanding of building pathology, design and construction processes.
- A natural leader who is confident in client facing environments
- Motivated by progression, influence, and long-term opportunity
You’ll likely already be operating at Associate level or be a Senior Surveyor ready to step up.
What Makes This Different?
At Kirsop and Company Ltd
- We are a small independent Building Surveying Practice, with a big voice in the industry.
- This is an opportunity for progression towards Management level and Directorship
- We reward success, initiative and innovation
We are building something progressive, sustainable, and respected — and we want people who are excited by that journey.
What We Offer
- Competitive salary and performance-based bonus
- Clear pathway to Director-level progression
- Flexible working approach
- Strong pipeline of quality commercial instructions
- A collaborative, supportive team culture
If you’re looking for a role where you feel you can lead, influence, and grow within a modern private practice — we’d love to have a confidential conversation.
