Ready to move up but not be thrown in the deep end?
This is the role that gives you real responsibility without the pressure of running solo. If you’ve started your career as an Assistant Quantity Surveyor in drylining, interiors or subcontracting and now want proper mentoring, project exposure, and a clear path to progress, read on.
As an Assistant Quantity Surveyor, you’ll be joining a specialist subcontractor on a landmark £3.5M drylining scheme in Central London. The project is high-profile, technically complex, and moves fast ideal for developing your commercial skills.
You’ll be working directly with a Commercial Manager who knows how to bring people through the ranks. He’s experienced, supportive, and hands-on giving you the autonomy to learn by doing, with a safety net when you need it.
This is a business that rewards initiative, accountability, and ambition. You won’t be babysat but you will be supported.
This subcontractor has only been around five years but is already turning over £25M with zero debt and £4.5M cash in the bank. That kind of financial strength is rare especially in drylining and subcontracting. It also gives them the freedom to invest in people and projects properly.
It’s run by a well-known industry figure with a reputation for looking after his team. Old-school work ethic, modern leadership style.
What You’ll Get
• Hybrid working with minimum 2 days a week from home
• All travel costs paid, including trains, petrol, parking
• Personal development plan to get you to Project Quantity Surveyor level
• Annual 10% bonus and yes, it’s paid out consistently
• A modern, professional team culture which is relaxed but high performing
• A central London project that’ll stand out on your CV
What We’re Looking For
• 1–3 years’ experience as an Assistant Quantity Surveyor in drylining or a subcontracting environment
• Comfortable supporting across valuations, variations, procurement, and subcontractor packages
• You’re driven, detail-oriented, and eager to learn
• You work well under pressure and want to build a long-term Quantity Surveying career
• Confident communicator, ready to take the next step with the right support
