About the Role

As an M&E Quantity Surveyor, you’ll play a vital role in managing the financial aspects of complex mechanical and electrical installations. You’ll be responsible for cost control, procurement, contract administration, and ensuring the successful delivery of projects on time and within budget. These are not your average builds – they are highly secure, intricate, and demand a meticulous approach to detail and compliance.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Managing all commercial aspects of M&E packages from conception to completion.
• Preparing detailed cost plans, estimates, and tenders.
• Administering contracts, including variations, claims, and final accounts.
• Procuring M&E subcontractors and managing their performance.
• Conducting regular site visits and progress meetings.
• Working closely with project managers, engineers, and clients to ensure project success.
• Ensuring compliance with all relevant regulations and client requirements, particularly within the sensitive MoD and MoJ environments.

What We’re Looking For

• Proven experience as an M&E Quantity Surveyor, ideally within a Tier 1 contracting environment.
• Demonstrable experience working on high-value projects, with exposure to MoD or MoJ schemes being a significant advantage.
• A strong understanding of M&E systems and construction processes.
• Excellent commercial acumen and negotiation skills.
• Proficiency in relevant QS software and Microsoft Office Suite.
• Exceptional communication and interpersonal skills.
• A relevant degree or professional qualification in Quantity Surveying or a related field.
• Due to the nature of the projects, successful candidates will be required to undergo relevant security clearance checks.

What’s On Offer

• The chance to work on truly unique and impactful projects that contribute to national infrastructure.
• A competitive salary and comprehensive benefits package.
• Significant opportunities for professional development and career progression within a leading contractor.
• A collaborative and supportive work environment.
• The stability and prestige of working for a Tier 1 organization.
