Job Description
Graduate Quantity Surveyor
AMB Recruitment Group is working with a well-established, award-winning contractor that delivers landscaping and civil engineering projects across the North West. They offer a full design-and-build service from their head office in Mid Cheshire, and due to continued growth they’re now looking to bring Graduate Quantity Surveyors into their commercial team.
This is a great opportunity for someone at the start of their QS career to join a business where you’ll be involved across the full life of a project, from tendering and pricing right through to delivery and final account, with the support and training to help you develop.
What you’ll be doing:
- Supporting the commercial team with tenders, pricing and preparing quotations
- Measuring and taking off quantities from drawings
- Sending out enquiries to suppliers and subcontractors and comparing quotes
- Assisting with cost reports, valuations and applications for payment
- Helping to track variations and changes against the contract
- Visiting sites to understand the works and track progress
- Working alongside project managers, designers and site teams
What they’re looking for:
- A completed degree in Quantity Surveying (unfortunately, we’re unable to consider current students for this role)
- Any placement or industry experience would be a bonus, but isn’t essential
- Organised, keen to learn and happy to get stuck in
- A full UK driving licence, as the role involves travel to sites and the office isn’t easily reached by public transport
- A CSCS card would be an advantage
Please note: As this is a contractor-side role, it doesn’t include a RICS chartership pathway. It would suit someone who’s keen to build strong, hands-on commercial experience and learn how projects are run from start to finish.
