- Ensure compliance with company policies, contractual obligations, and best practices.
- Collaborate with project, design, and technical teams to achieve programme, quality, and budget objectives.
- Provide mentorship and guidance to junior members of the commercial team.
About You
- Degree-qualified in Quantity Surveying or Commercial Management (or equivalent).
- Minimum 7+ years’ experience on large-scale residential or mixed-use projects.
- Proven background in RC frame and residential construction.
- Excellent commercial acumen, negotiation, and leadership skills.
- Strong communication and stakeholder management ability.
- Proficient in Excel and cost management systems.
- Driven, detail-focused, and motivated by long-term project success.
Why Join?
- Work on flagship high-rise developments in prime London locations valued up to £300m.
- Join financially robust, design-led Tier 1 contractors and developers.
- Gain exposure to luxury residential, mixed-tenure, and technically complex projects.
- Long-term career progression with structured development opportunities.
- Supportive, people-first culture with strong commercial leadership.
What’s on Offer
- Up to £95,000 basic salary + comprehensive package
