Job Description

Quantity Surveyor (Commercial) - London

Looking to step into a proper No.2 role on a major project without being stuck in the background? This one's geared exactly for that.

We're speaking with Quantity Surveyors for upcoming commercial projects in London. You'll sit just below the commercial lead on a large scheme, getting real exposure to decision-making, not just paperwork.

What the role looks like:

You'll be heavily involved in the financial and contractual side of the project - managing costs, handling variations, supporting reporting, and making sure the job stays commercially on track. It's about protecting margin while keeping everything compliant and running smoothly.

Day-to-day:

  • Supporting the commercial lead on a large project
  • Managing valuations, variations, and cost reporting
  • Keeping a close eye on budgets and profitability
  • Administering contracts and ensuring compliance
  • Contributing to final accounts and commercial strategy

What you need:

  • Experience as a QS on commercial projects
  • Solid understanding of contracts and cost control
  • Confidence to support and challenge where needed
  • Commercial awareness (not just ticking boxes)
