Senior Quantity Surveyor - Cambridge
A growing construction consultancy in Cambridge is looking to appoint an experienced Senior Quantity Surveyor to take a leading role across a diverse portfolio of projects. Working across the commercial, retail, residential, leisure and education sectors, this is an excellent opportunity for a Senior Quantity Surveyor who enjoys variety and wants to take greater ownership of project delivery.

This position would suit a confident Senior Quantity Surveyor with strong UK consultancy experience who can manage projects independently and build trusted client relationships.

Preparing detailed cost plans, estimates and project budgets
Managing tender documentation, tender analysis and procurement advice

Attending client, design team and site meetings
Building long-term relationships with clients and project stakeholders
Senior Quantity Surveyor - Candidate Requirements:
Degree qualified in Quantity Surveying, Commercial Management or a related construction discipline
Strong UK PQS or cost consultancy experience
MRICS qualified or working towards chartership
Experience managing projects through both pre- and post-contract stages
