We are currently recruiting on behalf of a well-established utilities company, looking to strengthen their commercial team with the appointment of a Quantity Surveyor

This is an excellent opportunity to join a growing organisation operating at scale across the utilities sector, offering a commercially focused role rather than a traditional, site-heavy QS position.

Based out of the office, you will report into the Commercial Manager and work closely with the Commercial Director, supporting the delivery and commercial performance of multiple projects.

This role sits predominantly within post-contract commercial management, with some involvement in pre-contract support.

Key responsibilities:

* Managing the commercial aspects of a high volume of utility projects
* Monitoring costs, variations, and financial performance
* Ensuring projects are delivered with maximum value and cost efficiency
* Working with bespoke contracts and varying terms andamp; conditions
* Supporting operational teams on commercial matters
* Collaborating with and mentoring junior team members and trainees
* Contributing to the ongoing development of the commercial function

This is a multi-project environment, ideal for someone comfortable managing complexity and volume rather than focusing on a single large scheme.

What We're Looking For

* Minimum 5 years' experience in a QS or commercial role
* Strong commercial awareness and cost control experience
* Background in utilities, infrastructure, or groundworks
* Experience working across multiple projects simultaneously
* Familiarity with bespoke contracts / non-standard Tandamp;Cs
* Degree qualified (desirable, not essential)
* Strong communication and team collaboration skills
