Help Build a Business. Not Just Work for One.
Entrepreneurial Measured Building Surveyor | Founding Opportunity
London | Full-time | Hybrid | Salary + Potential Equity
Based in London, with flexibility around office-based and remote working alongside the site attendance required for surveying and project delivery.
Ever thought about building your own new-age surveying business, with established clients, financial backing and mentorship from successful industry leaders who've built thriving businesses time and again?
This could be the opportunity you've been waiting for.
GRØ Careers has partnered, once again, with an established, successful London-based BE business as it launches a new venture specialising in measured building surveying, 3D laser scanning and Scan-to-BIM services.
And we're looking for someone who wants to be involved from the very beginning.
Not simply to join a surveying department.
To help build one.
An opportunity to create something of your own…
Imagine having a seat at the table with opportunity to influence and shape how a surveying business operates.
To recommend the equipment you believe is best.
Build relationships with clients.
And ultimately grow a team around the standards you've helped establish.
Now imagine doing all of that with the backing of an established business that already has clients and projects for the new service to support.
That's what makes this opportunity different.
The foundations are there. The ambition is there. The initial source of work is there.
What's missing is the right person to help turn that opportunity into a successful business.
What would you actually be doing?
Initially, you will be hands-on.
You will undertake measured building surveys, carry out laser scanning, process survey data and take responsibility for producing accurate, high-quality deliverables.
Alongside the technical work, you will have a genuine opportunity to work with the SLT to influence how the business develops, including:
- Selecting and recommending surveying equipment, technology and software.
- Establishing efficient surveying, point-cloud and Scan-to-BIM workflows.
- Managing projects from initial client brief through to final delivery.
- Advising on service offerings, project costs and commercial opportunities.
- Helping develop relationships and grow the external client base.
- Eventually building and leading a team as the business expands.
This isn't an opportunity for someone who simply wants to manage other surveyors from day one.
It's for someone who enjoys the work, knows how to deliver it and wants to build something bigger around it.
Who are we looking for?
You might currently be an experienced Measured Building Surveyor, Geomatics Surveyor, Reality Capture Specialist, Scan-to-BIM professional, Survey Manager or someone operating a small surveying consultancy.
Your job title, qualifications and career path are less important than what you can actually do.
The essential requirement is proven hands-on measured building surveying experience, including the ability and willingness to undertake site surveys and take responsibility for the technical delivery.
Experience in the following would be valuable…
- Measured building surveys and 3D laser scanning.
- Leica, FARO, Trimble or equivalent surveying equipment.
- Point-cloud registration, processing and quality assurance.
- Revit (+ AutoCAD) and Scan-to-BIM workflows.
- Producing accurate plans, elevations, sections and 3D models.
- Managing survey projects, clients, costs and deliverables.
We're deliberately not prescribing a particular scanner, software package or methodology.
In fact, if you believe there's a better way to do something, we want to hear it.
Just as importantly, you will have the initiative, commercial curiosity and entrepreneurial drive to help shape a new venture.
Perhaps you've introduced new technology, improved processes, developed client relationships or considered starting your own business.
Perhaps you're simply an ambitious surveyor who knows you could achieve more with the right opportunity.
Either way, we would be interested in speaking with you.
What makes this opportunity special?
Learn from people who've done it before.
Work closely with successful industry entrepreneurs who've built and grown businesses multiple times, benefiting from their experience, commercial insight and mentorship as you establish the venture.
A genuine founding opportunity.
Join at a stage where your decisions and ideas can directly influence the business you're helping create.
Established backing and existing clients.
Benefit from the existing infrastructure, relationships and initial project opportunities of an established, successful organisation.
Bring your own ideas about equipment, technology, processes, services and commercial growth.
The chance to grow into leadership.
Start by establishing the technical delivery and develop the operation as its client base and workload expand.
Potential ownership.
For the right person, there's an opportunity to discuss an equity stake in the venture, allowing you to share in the value you help create.
Is this the opportunity you've been waiting for?
Opportunities to get involved at the very beginning of a new business, with this level of influence and established support, are… rare!
You don't need to arrive with a complete business plan.
But you do need to know your craft, enjoy taking ownership and be excited by the prospect of creating something successful.
If you've ever thought, "There's a smarter, more innovative way to do this. I would love the opportunity to build something of my own, with the right backing," we would love to hear from you.
Applicants must have the right to work in the UK without current or future employer sponsorship.
