I’m working with a specialist structural steel company known for delivering complex, heavy engineering projects across the UK. Their portfolio includes large-scale structural steel frameworks, industrial chimneys, and engineered steel structures for energy, MOD, and industrial sectors.
They are looking to appoint an experienced Quantity Surveyor who also has a solid understanding of Contracts Management to join their commercial team.

Administering contracts and managing variations, claims, and contractual obligations

Supporting project delivery with contract negotiation and compliance
