Job Opportunity: Quantity Surveyor / Senior QS (Freelance)
Location: Woolwich Duration: 6-12 Month Initial Contract
We are seeking an experienced and diligent Quantity Surveyor or Senior Quantity Surveyor to join a flagship residential development in Woolwich. This is a pivotal role requiring a blend of sharp commercial acumen and robust project management skills.
The Role
This contract is divided into two distinct, high-impact phases:
* Phase 1: Commercial Close-out Your primary focus will be the meticulous management and negotiation of final accounts for Phase 1. We need someone who can dive into the detail, resolve outstanding disputes, and bring the project to a clean financial conclusion.
* Phase 2: Project Management & Delivery As the project transitions, your role will evolve into a management-heavy position overseeing key packages for Phase 2, including Facade, M&E, and Dry Lining. You will be responsible for ensuring these trades deliver on time, within budget, and to the required quality standards.
Candidate Requirements
We are looking for a professional who has "been there and done it" within a Tier 1 Main Contractor environment. To be successful, you must demonstrate:
* Residential Expertise: A deep understanding of high-density residential builds and the specific challenges they entail.
* Career Stability: A proven track record of longevity in previous roles. We are looking for a "non-jumpy" CV that shows commitment to project lifecycles.
* Administrative Excellence: Exceptional organizational skills and a "strong admin" mindset. You should be comfortable managing complex documentation, variations, and reporting suites.
* Technical Knowledge: Proficiency in managing specialized packages (Facade and M&E specifically).
Why Join This Project?
* Stability: A guaranteed 6-12 month contract.
* Variety: A unique opportunity to flex both your commercial (QS) and operational (PM) muscles.
* Location: Excellent transport links in the heart of Woolwich.
How to Apply If you have the Tier 1 experience and the steady hands required to close out accounts and drive production, please submit your CV and daily rate expectations.
