We are working with one of the UK’s leading infrastructure contractors, a business with a multi-billion-pound order book and an outstanding reputation for delivering highways, public realm and active travel schemes across the country.
Due to continued growth, they are looking to appoint a Senior Quantity Surveyor to take full commercial responsibility for a £20m active travel scheme in Sheffield.
