Wimbledon · Permanent
I’m working with an owner-run main contractor looking to appoint a Senior Quantity Surveyor to take commercial ownership of several £2m–£10m residential projects across prime Central London.
This is a hands-on, client-facing role. You’ll run the commercial side of each project from procurement through to final account, with direct responsibility for budgets, margins and commercial risk.
The Role
- Take full commercial responsibility for several projects at once, tracking costs and protecting target margins
- Run subcontractor and supplier procurement, from tender enquiries and negotiation through to placing orders
- Prepare monthly CVRs, cost forecasts and cash flow projections
- Submit client valuations and agree variations with clients and their professional teams
- Manage subcontractor payments, variations and final accounts
- Support extension of time and loss and expense submissions where required
- Work closely with Project Managers, Contracts Managers and senior management, and attend meetings with clients and consultants
Projects
- Super-prime residential refurbishment and construction across Central London
- Individual schemes typically valued between £2m and £10m
- Bespoke private homes, working with architects, interior designers and specialist trades
What they’re looking for
- An experienced Quantity Surveyor or Senior Quantity Surveyor from a main contractor background in high-end residential construction or refurbishment
- A track record of independently managing several projects of comparable value at once
- Strong experience across procurement, CVRs, valuations, variations and final accounts
- Confidence dealing directly with private clients, consultants and subcontractors
- A relevant degree or equivalent experience, with strong Excel and commercial reporting skills
- JCT experience and familiarity with occupied properties or constrained Central London sites would be useful
The Company
An established, owner-run specialist with its own team of skilled tradespeople. The business works closely with private clients and their design teams to deliver bespoke homes where finishes and detail matter.
You’ll have direct access to senior management and scope to take on more commercial responsibility over time.
