Our client, an established, independent construction and property consultancy is seeking to appoint a Director to join its senior leadership team.
The business is known for delivering tailored advice across the built environment, supported by a strong reputation for technical excellence and long-standing client relationships.
This is a senior, client-facing role offering a high level of autonomy and influence. The successful candidate will take ownership of cost management commissions from early feasibility through to completion, while also playing a key role in the strategic growth of the division.
The client is seeking a seasoned Quantity Surveyor with experience gained within a consultancy environment. Candidates should have a strong residential background, including private residential, affordable housing, Build-to-Rent, later living, and mixed-use schemes, together with exposure to other asset classes such as commercial, leisure, and healthcare. A high level of technical competence is essential, covering feasibility estimating, cost planning, procurement, contract administration, and final accounts, alongside a thorough understanding of UK construction contracts.
The role requires a confident leader who can manage and develop teams, mentor junior staff, and take full accountability for project delivery and client outcomes. Strong commercial awareness and client-facing skills are essential, with the ability to build long-term relationships, retain repeat business, and contribute to new work generation.
The ideal candidate will already be operating at Director level, with clear market credibility and the ambition to progress further.
This position offers longer-term progression towards Partner for the right individual.
