Senior Building Surveyor (Investigations / Building Pathology)

📍 Leighton Buzzard 
💰 £41,000 – £50,000 + Car/Allowance

Step into a role where you lead investigations—not just reports.

If you’re a Building Surveyor or Engineer with investigation experience, or a Consultant, this is an opportunity to move into a role where you’ll own projects, advise clients, and progress into leadership.

You’ll join a growing consultancy delivering complex defect diagnosis and structural investigations, with real influence over outcomes—not just ticking boxes.

Why apply?

  • Move beyond standard surveys into specialist investigations

  • Take full ownership of projects from start to finish

  • Work on technically challenging, varied buildings

  • Supportive, close-knit team environment

The role

You’ll lead and deliver a range of building investigation and pathology projects, acting as the key point of contact for clients.

Your work will include:

  • Intrusive & non-intrusive condition surveys

  • Defect diagnosis and root cause analysis

  • Concrete investigations (corrosion, deterioration)

  • Water ingress and façade issues

  • Non-destructive testing (GPR, ultrasonic, etc.)

  • Building investigations for repurposing and design input.

  • Coordinating laboratory testing and interpreting results.

You’ll also:

  • Produce clear, practical, client-facing reports

  • Manage projects (programme, budget, quality)

  • Build strong client relationships

  • Deliver practical solutions.

  • Plan resources, allocate tasks and monitor performance.

  • Mentor junior team members

  • Contribute to technical and process improvements

What we’re looking for

  • Background in Building Surveying, Structural Engineering, or similar

  • Experience with building investigations / defect diagnosis

  • Strong reporting and client-facing skills

  • Ready to take ownership or step up into project leadership

  • Commercial awareness and problem-solving mindset

✅ RICS / ICE / CIOB (or similar) – desirable, not essential

Who this suits

  • A Building Surveyor wanting more technical/specialist work

  • A Consultant stuck in delivery looking for progression

  • Someone who enjoys understanding why buildings fail—not just reporting it
