I am currently working on behalf of a large, highly regarded cost and project management consultancy that continues to strengthen its position across the UK infrastructure market. Due to sustained growth and a strong pipeline of secured work, they are now looking to appoint a Chartered Quantity Surveyor to join their expanding team.

This consultancy is well known for delivering commercially robust solutions across some of the UK's most complex and high‑profile infrastructure programmes. Their client base spans rail, highways, utilities, aviation, energy and environmental sectors, with long‑standing frameworks and repeat instructions from major public and private sector bodies.

• Cost planning, estimating and commercial advice at early project stages
• Procurement strategy, tendering and contract administration
• Final accounts and commercial close‑out
• Working closely with clients, project managers and technical teams to deliver best‑in‑class outcomes
• Acting as a mentor to junior surveyors both within your team and the wider business

This is an excellent opportunity for a Chartered Quantity Surveyor who wants to continue developing within a consultancy environment that genuinely invests in its people. You can expect:

• Clear and structured career progression
• Exposure to nationally significant and technically challenging infrastructure schemes
• A supportive, professional culture with a strong emphasis on collaboration
• A genuine commitment to work‑life balance, with flexible and hybrid working arrangements

The successful candidate will be offered a highly competitive package, including:

• Starting salary of £45,000 to £70,000, depending on experience
• Car allowance of £5,000
• Private Pension contributions
  25 days annual leave plus additional benefits
• Paid professional fees
• Ongoing professional development and training support

• MRICS qualified (ideally chartered within the last 4‑6 years)
• Consultancy or client‑side experience within infrastructure, utilities or transportation
• Strong commercial acumen and client‑facing capability
• Ambitious, motivated and keen to progress within a leading consultancy environment
• Living within an easy commute of Central London
