Commercially manage subcontractors, including placing orders, certifying applications, managing changes, and agreeing on final accounts.
Help resolve client financial or contractual issues and disputes, including managing final accounts on projects.
Mentor junior members of the team and provide guidance when required.
What We're Looking For:
A degree in Quantity Surveying or a similar industry-recognised qualification.
At least 3 years of post-graduate experience within a contractor environment.
Experience in passive fire protection is beneficial but not essential.

Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with a professional manner.
