Project Quantity Surveyor / Senior Quantity Surveyor | Super Prime Refurb | Central London
 
Join a well-established contractor delivering high-quality residential refurbishment and extension projects across London.
 
This is a delivery-focused business working on complex, detail-led residential schemes - including structural alterations, cut & carve works, and high-end refurbishments — rather than volume new build or process-heavy corporate work.
 
Projects are typically technically challenging, often in live environments, with a strong emphasis on quality, coordination, and commercial control.
 
The Role
  • Take full commercial ownership of residential refurbishment projects from procurement through to final account
  • Manage subcontractor packages, valuations, variations, CVRs, and cost reporting
  • Work closely with Project Managers, Site Teams, and Directors to protect commercial outcomes
  • Involvement in structural works, heavy refurb, and live residential environments
  • Support tenders and early-stage cost planning where required
 
What they’re looking for
  • Project QS or Senior QS from a main contractor background
  • Strong experience in residential refurbishment / extensions / heavy refurb
  • Comfortable running your own projects with minimal hand-holding
  • Commercially sharp, practical, and delivery-focused
  • Someone who prefers autonomy and responsibility over rigid corporate process
 
The Company
A privately owned, London-based residential contractor delivering complex refurbishment and extension projects.
 
Their work typically includes:
  • High-end residential refurbishments
  • Structural alterations and cut & carve works
  • Extensions and reconfigurations
  • Live / occupied residential environments
 
This is proper builder-led construction — quality-driven, hands-on, and non-corporate.
