M&E Quantity Surveyor

The Opportunity

Our client, a long-established MEP engineering contractor, is opening a new operation in Trafford Park and is looking for a Quantity Surveyor to take commercial ownership of its projects.

Commercial control of a new operation from its first contract, and that first contract is a £350 million healthcare scheme.

Commercially, MEP is its own discipline. Valuations turn on installed services rather than visible progress, variations arrive through design change as often as through instruction, and the subcontract base is specialist. Carrying that on a scheme of this size, with an established contractor's balance sheet and supply chain behind you, is a different proposition from doing it on a project that is one of forty on a spreadsheet.

This is a permanent role in Trafford Park, £60,000 to £75,000 depending on experience, plus a full benefits package.
