THE COMPANY: I am currently recruiting on behalf of an established Employee-Owned Trust main contractor based in Maidenhead, with a turnover of approximately £60 million and ambitious plans for continued growth. The business is currently growing by around £10 million year on year, making this an exciting time to join the company as it continues to expand its project portfolio and team. Their projects are predominantly traditional-build schemes, ranging in value up to £20 million, with an average project value of around £8 million. The workload is varied, covering sectors including Social Housing, Education and specialist ongoing works for some of the UK's best-known film studios – giving employees the opportunity to work on projects connected with globally recognised productions such as James Bond and Marvel. The company has built an excellent reputation for looking after its people and developing careers from within. This is demonstrated by their exceptional staff retention, with two of their current Quantity Surveyors having been with the business for more than 25 years.

From day one, you will be mentored and supported by experienced members of the commercial team, with a clear and structured career path designed to help you progress towards becoming a fully-fledged Quantity Surveyor.
