Building Surveyor
Calibre Search
An established and highly respected consultancy is looking to appoint a Building Surveyor to support the continued growth of its project delivery team.
This is a slightly different opportunity from a traditional Building Surveying position, offering a strong blend of project management, contract administration and Clerk of Works-style responsibilities across a national project portfolio.
The role would suit someone who enjoys being involved on-site, managing quality, overseeing contractors and taking ownership of projects through delivery rather than sitting purely in a professional services environment.
Working directly with clients, end users and contractors, you'll play a key role in ensuring projects are delivered safely, correctly and to a high standard from inception through to completion.
The Role
- Managing refurbishment, adaptations and improvement projects across multiple residential sites nationally
- Acting as the key liaison between end users, contractors and project stakeholders
- Undertaking site inspections and monitoring quality of workmanship throughout delivery
- Preparing schedules of work and technical project documentation
- Administering contracts and managing project progress on site
- Assessing completed works and authorising contractor payments
- Managing contractor performance and ensuring compliance with project specifications
- Supporting delivery programmes and resolving on-site issues where required
- Providing clients with regular project updates and reporting
The Person
- Background within Building Surveying, Project Management or Clerk of Works environments
- Experience overseeing construction works on site
- Strong contract administration and project coordination skills
- Comfortable managing relationships with contractors, consultants and end users
- Ability to assess workmanship and monitor quality standards effectively
- Experience preparing schedules of work and technical reports
- Full UK driving licence and willingness to travel nationally
- MRICS qualification beneficial but not essential
Why Apply?
- Opportunity to join a respected and growing consultancy with a strong client base
- Varied role combining Building Surveying, project delivery and site-based management
- National project exposure across multiple sectors
- High levels of autonomy and client interaction
- Strong team culture with long-term career development opportunities
- Flexible working environment with a practical, delivery-focused approach
