FULL DESCRIPTION

Senior Quantity Surveyor

Senior Quantity Surveyor | Super-Prime Residential | Perm or Freelance

An opportunity has come about with a well-established contractor delivering high-end residential refurbishments and new builds across Prime Central London, due to continued growth and a strong pipeline of secured work.

The Business

Specialist contractor operating within the super-prime residential market

  • Projects across Mayfair, Belgravia, Chelsea, Kensington
  • Schemes typically £5m–£25m+, including cut & carve, basement construction, and high-spec finishes
  • Strong reputation with private clients, developers, and leading architects
  • Close-knit, delivery-focused team with repeat business and long-term relationships

The Role

  • Full commercial responsibility on super-prime residential schemes
  • Managing projects from pre-construction through to final account
  • Procurement of subcontract packages and supply chain management
  • Running CVRs, cash flow, and cost reporting
  • Managing variations, change control, and contract administration
  • Working closely with Project Managers, Directors, and high-end clients

What they’re looking for

  • Proven experience as a Senior QS / strong Project QS within a contractor environment
  • Background delivering high-end residential, refurb, or cut & carve schemes
  • Comfortable in detail-driven, client-facing environments
  • Strong understanding of JCT contracts and commercial processes
  • Someone who takes ownership — able to run jobs, not just report on them

Why this role

  • Exposure to some of the most high-spec residential schemes in London
  • Strong pipeline — genuine long-term work, not a one-job hire
  • Flexible offering — permanent or freelance considered
  • Environment where individuals are trusted to take ownership and progress

If this sounds of interest, feel free to get in touch for a confidential chat — happy to talk through current projects, team structure, and what they’re looking for in more detail.

Alternatively, if it’s not quite right but you know someone suitable, I’d be keen to speak — referral fees available for successful introductions.
