Job Description

Senior Quantity Surveyor | Nottinghamshire

Shape Communities. Lead Commercial Success. Build Your Future.

Not all Quantity Surveyor roles are created equal.

This is an opportunity for an experienced Senior Quantity Surveyor to join a highly successful and growing residential developer with a strong reputation for delivering quality homes and thriving communities across the Midlands and beyond.

If you're looking for a role where your commercial expertise genuinely influences business performance, where you'll be trusted to make decisions, and where career progression isn't just a promise but a reality, this could be the move you've been waiting for.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

Be part of a business with an ambitious growth strategy and a robust land pipeline.

Enjoy genuine career development within a company that promotes from within and invests in its people.

Work alongside experienced construction, technical and land teams in a collaborative environment where your input is valued.

Take ownership of multiple residential developments, driving profitability and commercial performance from start to finish.

Join a company that combines the stability of an established housebuilder with the energy and agility of a growing business.

  • Valuations, payments and final account negotiations

  • Identifying commercial risks and opportunities

  • Ensuring compliance with contractual obligations and company procedures

  • Contributing to strategic commercial decision-making across the region


About You

We're keen to speak with commercially astute Quantity Surveyors who have experience within the residential development or housebuilding sector.

You'll likely have:

  • Proven experience as a Quantity Surveyor or Senior Quantity Surveyor

  • Strong understanding of housebuilding and residential construction

  • Excellent commercial awareness and negotiation skills

  • Ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously

  • Strong communication and stakeholder management abilities

  • A proactive approach with a focus on delivering results

  • Attractive bonus structure

  • Company car or car allowance

  • Enhanced benefits package

  • Clear progression opportunities

  • Supportive and collaborative culture

  • Long-term career stability with a growing regional business
