Your new company
You will be joining a well established main contractor recognised for delivering high quality construction and fit out projects across the UK and Ireland. The organisation is known for its collaborative culture, technical capability and commitment to excellence, with a portfolio that spans commercial, hospitality, education and specialist build environments. Continued growth has created an opportunity for an experienced Senior Quantity Surveyor to join the commercial team based in Belfast, with occasional travel to project sites across the UK.

Your new role
You will take responsibility for the commercial management of projects from early cost planning through to final account.

The role requires a proactive approach, strong commercial awareness and the ability to manage multiple workstreams across different locations.

What you'll need to succeed
You should have a degree in Quantity Surveying or a related discipline and demonstrable experience operating at senior level within a contracting environment. Strong knowledge of construction contracts, excellent analytical and communication skills and the ability to lead commercial delivery on complex projects are essential. You will be confident managing subcontractor accounts, negotiating variations and providing clear commercial guidance to project teams. Flexibility to travel within the UK is required, along with a commitment to delivering high quality commercial support.

What you'll get in return
You will join a forward thinking contractor offering long term career development, exposure to high profile projects and a supportive working environment.
