Good Surveyors Deserve the Time to Do a Great Job

We're recruiting on behalf of an ambitious, fast-growing independent residential surveying practice that is redefining what it means to be a modern surveyor. Built on exceptional customer service, high-quality reporting and genuine value for clients, they've created an environment where surveyors are trusted, supported and given the time they need to carry out inspections properly.

Surveyors aren't overloaded with appointments or unrealistic targets. Instead, the focus is on delivering thorough inspections, producing first‑class reports and maintaining an excellent work‑life balance.

Whether you're recently qualified and looking to build your career within a supportive, growing business, or an experienced surveyor ready for your next challenge, this is an opportunity to join a company where your contribution will genuinely make a difference.

The Role

You’ll be responsible for carrying out predominantly private client Level 2 and Level 3 Home Surveys, producing clear, professional reports that help clients make informed decisions. Using the latest technology, including Go Report with a bespoke reporting template, you’ll benefit from streamlined administration, allowing you to spend more time doing what you do best.

The role offers:

• A local patch, typically within one hour of home.
• A realistic daily workload
• A phased diary during your first 3–6 months, allowing you to settle into the business with reduced workloads while becoming familiar with systems and processes.
• Home-based working with flexibility and autonomy.

What We’re Looking For

• AssocRICS, MRICS or FRICS qualified.
• Experience carrying out residential property surveys.
• A passion for delivering outstanding customer service.
• A commitment to producing accurate, high-quality reports.
• Excellent communication and organisational skills.
• A proactive approach and the desire to be part of a growing independent practice.
• VRS registration would be advantageous but is not essential.

What’s on Offer?

• Salary of up to £60,000, depending on experience.
• Profit share bonus.
• Car allowance plus mileage.
• Private medical insurance.
• Company pension.
• Paid RICS membership fees and CPD.
• Structured training and mentoring where required.
• Flexible home-based working.
• Quarterly team gatherings and social events.
• Genuine opportunities for career progression.
• A supportive leadership team that genuinely believes in quality over quantity, giving surveyors the time they need to deliver exceptional work.

Why Join?

This is more than just another surveying role. It's an opportunity to join a modern, independent practice that is investing in its people, embracing technology to enhance—not replace—the surveyor's expertise, and building a culture where quality, professionalism and customer service are at the heart of everything they do.
