The role includes:
Managing cost reporting and forecasting
Supporting procurement and subcontractor management
Working closely with delivery teams and site managers
Preparing valuations, variations, and final accounts
Liaising with Southern Water and internal commercial leads
Mix of home working, site visits and office time (based near Portsmouth)
What we're looking for
Quantity Surveying experience in a civil engineering or utilities environment
Comfortable managing costs across multiple live projects
Strong understanding of NEC contracts (or similar)
Water sector experience is ideal but not essential
Good with systems, commercial reporting, and client-facing work

Why consider it?
It's a long-term framework with strong project flow and a supportive commercial structure.
You'll have flexibility in how you work, and a clear path to develop within a major contractor.
If you're based in the South and want to work on meaningful infrastructure projects without being stuck behind a desk full-time, this is worth discussing.
