An established multi-disciplinary property and construction consultancy is seeking an ambitious Quantity Surveyor to work as Employer's Agent, and to join their team in South Manchester.
This is an excellent opportunity for someone with circa 2 - 3 years' post graduate experience who is looking to take ownership of projects, develop client facing skills, and work within a thriving affordable housing sector.

• Affordable housing developments

About You
We are keen to speak with candidates who:

• Hold a Quantity Surveying degree or equivalent qualification
• Have at least 2 years' post graduate consultancy experience
• Confident communicating with clients and leading meetings
• Have strong commercial and organisational skills

Experience within residential development, affordable housing, design & build procurement, or Employer's Agent services would be particularly advantageous.
