Ready to take the next step in your Quantity Surveying career?
If you've built a solid foundation in Quantity Surveying and you're looking for more responsibility, greater project exposure and the opportunity to work alongside an experienced team, this could be exactly what you're looking for.
An established and well-respected construction consultancy is continuing to grow and is looking to appoint an Intermediate Quantity Surveyor to join its Lower North Island team.
Working across a broad range of commercial, industrial, education, healthcare and infrastructure projects, you'll gain exposure to every stage of the project lifecycle while developing your commercial and technical expertise.
The Opportunity
This is far more than a traditional Quantity Surveying role.
You'll work closely with senior team members, clients and contractors, taking ownership of your own projects while continuing to learn from some of the industry's most experienced professionals.
If you're someone who enjoys building relationships, solving problems and being involved from project inception through to completion, you'll fit right in.
What You'll Be Doing
- Preparing cost plans and feasibility estimates
- Assisting with tendering and procurement
- Contract administration and commercial management
- Cost reporting and financial forecasting
- Assessing variations and progress claims
- Attending client and project meetings
- Working alongside contractors, consultants and project stakeholders
- Supporting the successful delivery of projects across the Lower North Island
About You We're looking for someone who has:
- 3-7 years' Quantity Surveying experience
- Consultancy or contractor-side experience
- A Quantity Surveying qualification
- Strong commercial awareness and attention to detail
- Excellent communication and relationship-building skills
- A positive attitude and a genuine desire to continue learning and developing
- The confidence to take ownership while enjoying being part of a collaborative team
Why You'll Want This Role
- Diverse and interesting projects across multiple sectors
- Genuine career progression with ongoing mentoring and support
- Plenty of client exposure and responsibility
- Supportive team culture where your contribution is valued
- Opportunity to broaden your experience rather than becoming pigeonholed
- Competitive salary and excellent long-term career prospects
If you're ready to step into a role where you'll continue to develop professionally while working on a wide variety of quality projects, we'd love to have a confidential conversation.
