About the role

About

Are you a seasoned construction professional who thrives on both the commercial and delivery side of projects?

We are looking for a driven and solutions-focused Project Manager / Quantity Surveyor to take ownership of projects from inception to close-out — ensuring cost, quality, and timelines are effectively managed every step of the way.

This role is ideal for someone who can confidently chair a consultant meeting in the morning and interrogate a bill of quantities in the afternoon — and enjoy both.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead end-to-end project delivery, including planning, scheduling, site oversight, and stakeholder management
  • Prepare cost estimates, feasibility studies, and bills of quantities across all project stages
  • Manage tender processes, evaluate bids, and administer contracts (pre- and post-award)
  • Oversee budgets, cash flow forecasts, valuations, variation orders, and final accounts
  • Identify and mitigate project risks to ensure delivery within scope, budget, and programme
  • Provide commercial and progress reporting to senior management

Requirements

  • Bachelor’s degree in Quantity Surveying, Construction Management, Civil Engineering, or a related field
  • 5–8 years’ experience in construction project management and/or cost management
  • RICS, SACQSP, or CIOB registration (or eligibility) will be advantageous
  • Proven ability to manage multidisciplinary teams, budgets, and contract administration
  • Proficiency in MS Office, Autodesk Construction Cloud, and project planning tools

Why Join Us?

  • Opportunity to work on impactful and high-value projects
  • Collaborative and professional working environment
  • Exposure to both project delivery and commercial management
  • Career growth within a dynamic organisation
