Be the best in Regional Build.
As one of the UK's leading regional builders, Kier Group's expertise, experience and flexibility is relied upon to deliver projects of all sizes and complexities, in many different sectors throughout the country. Every day of every year, our people meet all types of needs across hundreds of health, education and prison projects - building anything from a strategic asset costing hundreds of millions of pounds, to a small-budget school extension that creates priceless classroom space.
Key Responsibilities
Your expertise will contribute to PCM's overall service delivery as part of both single discipline (i.e. quantity surveying / cost management) and multi-disciplinary commissions with a raft of public and private sector clients. This expertise will include estimating, cost planning, cost bench marking / development, value engineering, valuations and contract administration. You will enhance our overall quantity surveying / cost management capability and service delivery through your personal development through CPD and contribution to our process of continuous improvement.
What do we need from you?
You will ideally have a degree in quantity surveying, accredited by RICS, and a clear body of experience in the delivery of quantity surveying / cost management services across at least 8 complex projects, covering both new build and refurbishment, each with a capital value of at least £3m for at least half the project life-cycle. This experience can include the role of Assistant QS/CM, but must also include that of lead QS/CM for at least three projects, of which at least two had a capital value of over £5m.
What will you receive?
You can expect a competitive salary, a matched pension scheme up to 7.5%, 26 days' annual leave + bank holidays (with the opportunity to buy or sell holiday) together with two employee Share Scheme options (Sharesave and Share Incentive Plan).
Pre-employment checks
It's worth remembering that if you are successful, we'll undertake the relevant / standard pre-employment checks after you have been offered a job. This includes taking up your references, verifying your right to work in the UK, verifying your driving licence (if applicable) and a health assessment.
