Senior / Chartered Building Surveyor
Newcastle
Are you looking for an opportunity to join a business in growth phase? This is a chance to join a business at the right time growing, investing and creating real opportunities for people who want to step up. You'll be given the platform to develop your career, work on a diverse pipeline of projects, and be recognised for the impact you make.
With a major push underway to grow a high-performing multi-disciplinary team in Newcastle, we're looking to bring in a Senior / Chartered Building Surveyor who wants more than just another role. This is a genuine opportunity for an ambitious Building Surveyor to step into a business that's investing heavily in its people, its capability, and its long-term presence in the North East. You'll be part of a modern consultancy offering that combines technical delivery with a forward-thinking, advisory-led approach to built assets.
Working closely with the wider Building Surveying team in offices throughout the UK, you'll take ownership of a varied workload spanning professional services, project work and technical delivery. You'll also play a key role in shaping client relationships and, as the business progresses, the development of more junior surveyors not just overseeing work, but actively helping people progress. This isn't a siloed role either. You'll collaborate with teams across the UK on larger national instructions, giving you exposure to bigger clients and more complex schemes, while still maintaining a strong regional presence.
The Role
* Managing and delivering a broad range of building surveying instructions
* Acting as a key point of contact for clients, building long‑term relationships
* Leading on projects across the full lifecycle - from feasibility through to completion and beyond
* Delivering core services including surveys, dilapidations, party wall matters and contract administration
* Preparing and overseeing planned maintenance programmes
* Supporting the appointment and management of sub‑consultants
* Providing clear, commercially aware advice to clients and project teams
* Mentoring and developing junior team members
* Contributing to business development and identifying new opportunities
* Ensuring projects are delivered efficiently, profitably and to a high standard
About You:
* MRICS (or close to achieving it), or equivalent experience
* Strong, well‑rounded Building Surveying background across both professional and project work
* Confident in client‑facing situations, with the ability to build trust and win repeat business
* Solid understanding of construction methods, contracts and procurement routes
* Experience acting as Contract Administrator / Employer's Agent
* A proactive mindset - someone who wants to get involved, add value and push things forward
* Comfortable mentoring others and contributing to a positive team environment
