Quantity Surveyor 

£55,000 – £60,000 + benefits

Poole

Full-Time / Permanent

If you’re a Quantity Surveyor who wants more ownership, more variety, and more trust, this role will suit you down to the ground.

You’ll join a respected consultancy where you’re not just another cog in a huge team — you’ll work directly with Directors, lead your own projects, and have a genuine voice in how things are delivered. If you’re tired of rigid structures, slow decisions, or being boxed into one sector, this is a refreshing change.

• Preparing cost plans, BOQs, and budget appraisals
• Managing valuations, variations, reporting, and final accounts
• Handling claims, loss & expense, and contract admin
• Running tender processes and producing tender reports
• Chairing project meetings and leading client communication
• Carrying out site inspections, progress checks, and snagging
• Acting as Employer’s Agent and/or Project Manager

• Experience as a QS, PQS, or Project Manager
• Strong technical knowledge of cost management and contracts
• Confidence leading meetings and managing clients
• Ability to juggle multiple projects without dropping standards
• RICS qualified or working towards (preferred)
• Full UK driving licence + own vehicle

• £55,000 – £60,000 salary
• Company Pension
• Employee Support Programme
• Healthcare & breakdown cover (subject to package)
• All professional fees paid
• Ongoing CPD and career development support

• Real autonomy — you’ll run your own projects, not just support someone else’s
• Variety — healthcare, coastal engineering, education, residential
• Client-facing responsibility — you’ll be trusted to lead meetings and relationships
• Broader remit — QS + EA + PM, ideal if you want to grow beyond pure cost work
• Small, supportive team — no politics, no layers, no micromanagement
• Clear progression — the Directors want someone who’ll grow with the business

If you want a role where you can actually see the impact of your work, this is it.
