Quantity Surveyor

We are seeking an experienced Quantity Surveyor or Contracts Administrator to jump straight in and provide hands-on commercial support to our Commercial Manager on a temporary basis.

Because this is a short-term contract, we are not looking for someone who checks every single box-just a solid practitioner with relevant QS experience who can hit the ground running and keep things moving smoothly.

What You'll Be Doing (High-Level Overview)

Working alongside the Commercial Manager, you will assist with the core commercial tasks across active construction projects:

• Tendering & Procurement: Help request, evaluate, and compare subcontractor quotes and draft basic subcontract agreements.
• Cost & Variation Management: Review and assess subcontractor variations and assist with monthly payment claims.
• Financial Tracking: Support the team with basic project cost tracking, monthly drawdowns, and job close-outs.
• Commercial Support: Assist the Commercial Manager and Project Managers with general day-to-day contract and financial administration.

What We're Looking For

• Previous experience in Quantity Surveying or Contracts Administration in commercial/industrial construction.
• Familiarity with commercial construction processes, trade packages, and managing subcontractor agreements.
• Tech-savvy (experience with systems like Procore or CostX is a bonus, but strong general proficiency works).
• Good clear communication skills and a practical, problem-solving mindset.
• Availability to start immediately.

Why Apply?

• Immediate Start: Get straight to work on a 2 to 4-month assignment - potentially longer
• Streamlined Scope: Focus on key operational QS support without taking on full permanent management overhead.
• Great Team: Collaborative environment with direct support from senior leadership.
