Your new company
One of the UK's leading tier-1 contractors within their growing Kent business now seek an experienced Senior QS to play a key role in delivering high-profile projects across the Southern Home Counties. With multiple major projects starting this year its a period of expansion and success within the business. Projects are typically 2 Stage education schemes in the £20 - 40 mill range with healthcare and some residential schemes supplementing the workload.
Your new role
You'll be working as a senior QS overseeing one large project as part of the larger site team. You'll be the go-to person for commercial strategy, commercial reporting, and team leadership working closely with the site team, commercial team, subcontractors, and other external stakeholders.

You've studied commercial management (or something similar), hold a degree or HNC, and might even be RICS qualified. You're confident using commercial systems like COINS or Sphere, and above all, you're a team player who's passionate about delivering high-quality work and making a real impact.

What you'll get in return
A competitive salary of up to £85k + package.
