What they're looking for:

• Experience in a QS role (ideally with a contractor or residential builder)

• Basic understanding of procurement, take-offs, valuations, and variations

• Organised, driven, and eager to learn from a hands-on commercial team

• Comfortable on-site, dealing with subcontractors and tracking costs

• Based within reach of SW London, Surrey, or nearby parts of Kent/Sussex

The Company:

They are a growing main contractor delivering high-end residential refurbishments in some of London's most prestigious postcodes. They combine strong site management with attention to detail and client care - and they're building a team that shares those values.
