  • Work closely with internal teams, contractors, and stakeholders to resolve issues and drive performance
  • Ensure compliance with commercial governance frameworks and internal processes

About You

You will bring:

  • Degree in Quantity Surveying or equivalent
  • Minimum 5+ years post-graduate experience in commercial or contract roles
  • Strong experience in contract negotiation and administration
  • Knowledge of NEC and/or FIDIC contract frameworks
  • Experience in cost management, forecasting, and reporting
  • Strong stakeholder management and problem-solving skills
  • Ability to influence, negotiate, and resolve commercial challenges

What's on Offer

  • Opportunity to work on high-value, complex infrastructure projects
