Our client is seeking a Quantity Surveyor to join their growing commercial team. This is an exciting opportunity to work within a specialist fire protection contractor delivering high-quality fire safety solutions across a range of construction environments.

We are looking for a commercially minded QS who is eager to develop their career within a fast-paced and technically interesting sector. While fire protection experience is beneficial, we are equally open to candidates with a strong general construction background who are keen to learn and grow within the fire safety industry.

• Manage all aspects of cost control across multiple fire protection projects
• Prepare and review valuations, variations, and final accounts
• Support procurement of subcontractors and supplier packages
• Monitor project budgets and forecast costs
• Work closely with project managers and site teams to ensure financial accuracy
• Assist in contract administration (JCT/Design & Build as applicable)
• Identify and manage commercial risks and opportunities

• Experience as a Quantity Surveyor within construction (fire safety experience desirable but not essential)
• Strong understanding of construction contracts and commercial processes
• Excellent numerical, analytical, and negotiation skills
• Ability to work independently and as part of a collaborative team
• Proactive mindset with attention to detail and problem-solving ability
• Strong communication skills when dealing with clients, subcontractors, and internal teams

• Competitive salary (dependent on experience)
• Opportunity to work in a specialist and growing sector
• Supportive team environment with real responsibility from day one
• Exposure to varied and technically challenging projects
• Clear career progression path, with opportunities to develop into Senior QS, Commercial Manager, or broader leadership roles
• Continued professional development and training support

This role is designed for long-term growth. You will gain hands-on experience within fire protection contracting, with structured support to progress your career within both commercial management and specialist fire safety project delivery.
