Job Details

Your new company
Our client is a growing business in Edinburgh with ambitious plans for expansion over the next 2 to 3 years. Our client is a specialist refurbishment contractor with a real focus on high-end hospitality and leisure facilities, and they have proven time and time again their capability to deliver these projects on tight deadlines and budgets while still making a healthy profit. With multiple new projects on the horizon, they are now seeking to appoint a QS to their commercial team in Edinburgh.
Your new role
As a Quantity Surveyor for this business, you will be based onsite (with WFH available) and you will be reporting to a commercial manager and commercial director. Working with your experienced operational team, you will be responsible for the full commercial management of these projects, from subcontract procurement to communication with project stakeholders such as PQS, clients and other stakeholders. Your typical project will be a high-end refurbishment up to a value of £10million and will involve significant commercial volatility, so this is your opportunity to really develop your commercial instincts and skills.
What you'll need to succeed
The ideal candidate will be degree qualified in quantity surveying and have direct experience of working for a main contractor or subcontractor on busy and challenging refurbishment projects. You enjoy the cut and thrust of protecting your margin and your commercial instincts have been honed in fast-moving and busy project environments previously. Perhaps you are working for a well respected subcontractor and now would like to work for a main contractor?
What you'll get in return
Our clients are happy to offer an attractive benefits package and are open to a flexible work pattern based on your individual requirements. Get in touch asap for more info!
