## About the role

Quantsurv provides quantity surveying and construction claims support to subcontractors, main contractors, clients and residential developers. We are looking for a quantity surveyor who can turn drawings, contract documents and project records into reliable commercial information.

You will work directly with Jack Butler-Kettle on agreed client assignments. The work may range from a defined estimate or valuation to continuing commercial support on a live project. You should be comfortable explaining your figures, identifying missing information and raising concerns before they become larger problems.

## What you will do

-   Prepare measurements, quantity take-offs, estimates and cost plans, with clear assumptions and exclusions.
-   Review tender and subcontract information, compare quotations and identify gaps in scope or pricing.
-   Prepare or assess applications for payment, variations and final accounts against the contract and supporting records.
-   Maintain cost reports and forecasts that explain the current position, outstanding changes and commercial risks.
-   Work with clients and project teams to resolve queries, obtain the right records and keep agreed actions moving.

## What you will bring

-   Practical quantity surveying experience on construction projects, with examples of work you have personally prepared or assessed.
-   Confidence reading drawings, measuring work and producing accurate, traceable calculations in spreadsheets.
-   An understanding of construction payment, valuation and change procedures, including experience applying the relevant contract terms.
-   Clear written and verbal communication, sound judgement and the ability to manage agreed deadlines while working remotely.
-   Ability to make reasonable project visits across London and the South of England.

## Useful additional experience

-   Experience working under JCT or NEC contracts.
-   A relevant qualification or professional membership, or progress towards one.
-   Experience supporting more than one side of a construction project, such as contractor and client appointments.
