We are working with a well-established, medium-sized contractor specialising in technically challenging cut & carve structural projects across London and the South East. The expertise covers structural alterations, complex demolitions, underpinning, reinforced concrete (RC) works, basements, temporary works, and structural steel installations.

This is a fantastic opportunity for a Project Quantity Surveyor who wants to move away from repetitive residential or new‑build schemes and become a specialist in complex structural and builders’ works.

As Project Quantity Surveyor, you will play a key role in delivering technically challenging structural alteration projects from pre‑construction through to final account. Your responsibilities will include:

• Preparing accurate cost plans, valuations, and variations for cut & carve and RC packages.
• Leading procurement of subcontractors and specialist trades for demolition, structural steel, basements, and temporary works.
• Managing contracts (JCT / NEC) and maintaining robust commercial control throughout each project.
• Working closely with the delivery team to ensure safe, profitable, and timely completion.
• Providing commercial input on risk management and project planning.
• Supporting the Commercial Director in enhancing the business’s reputation for specialist structural contracting.

We are seeking a proactive Quantity Surveyor who thrives in a fast‑paced, technical environment. You should have:

• Experience in cut & carve, reinforced concrete (RC), or structural alteration projects.
• A strong commercial skill set: procurement, valuations, reporting, and contract management.
• Solid understanding of JCT or NEC contract forms.
• Excellent communication and negotiation skills.
• Ambition to progress quickly within a supportive, medium-sized contractor.
• A base within a commutable distance of High Barnet, Hertfordshire.

• Salary £50,000 – £70,000 depending on experience.
• Exposure to complex, challenging structural and civil engineering projects rarely seen in mainstream contracting.
• A medium‑sized business where your contribution is recognised and career progression is rapid.
• Opportunity to become a specialist Quantity Surveyor in cut & carve structural works – a niche and highly sought‑after skill set.
• Supportive leadership and genuine opportunities for professional growth.
• Long‑term job security with a strong pipeline of projects across London and the South East.
