Associate Director; Building Surveying

Building Surveying Associate / Associate Director

Lead a service line. Shape a region. Step toward the board.

This is a rare chance to take real ownership, not just another senior title.

I am representing a long established, multidisciplinary property consultancy with a strong reputation across the North West. The business is partner led, people first, and built on long-term client relationships rather than churn. They are quietly investing in their Chester office and are now looking for a senior Building Surveyor to lead, grow and shape the local Building Surveying function.

This is a career defining move for someone who wants influence, visibility and a genuine route to equity.

• Leading and developing the Building Surveying team in Chester
• Managing and growing a loyal, high quality client base
• Delivering and overseeing projects from brief through to completion
• Winning work, contributing to bids and shaping service line growth
• Working closely with directors on fees, forecasting and strategy

• Chartered Building Surveyor MRICS
• Proven experience managing clients and winning work
• Comfortable leading people and being the senior presence in a team
• Strong project delivery background across repairs, refurbishments or alterations
• Ambition to move beyond delivery into leadership and ownership

• Salary guide £60,000 to £75,000 plus flexibility for the right person
• Company car, private healthcare, laptop and mobile
• Stable workload with blue chip and public sector clients
• Supportive, low churn culture with visible and approachable leadership

• You will lead, not follow
• You will have a credible route to board and equity
• You will shape a service line rather than inherit problems
• You will work in a business that promotes from within
• You will have real autonomy with backing at senior level
