A full-time role working in the UK Reinstatement Cost Consultancy Team. UK based but with flexibility to accommodate home working.

The nature of this role is such that flexibility is required and a willingness to support on occasions, outside of core working hours to ensure that client and delivery deadlines are met.

We are looking for a Chartered (MRICS) cost consultant to predominately work within the Reinstatement Cost Assessment team but also to provide cost consultancy support to the Building Consultancy team.
