TLG Infrastructure Limited
Job Description
Senior Quantity Surveyor / Managing Quantity Surveyor
West London
85,000-95,000 + Car Allowance/Company Car + Bonus + Healthcare + Pension
Major Residential Refurbishment Project
Ready to Make the Step Up to Managing QS?
We're working with one of the UK's leading regeneration and refurbishment contractors to recruit a Senior Quantity Surveyor / Managing Quantity Surveyor for a major long-term project in West London.
Importantly, you don't need to already be working as a Managing QS.
We're equally interested in speaking with experienced Senior Quantity Surveyors who are ready to take the next step, lead a commercial team and take greater responsibility for the commercial performance of a major project.
You'll be joining an established project and commercial team, rather than having to build everything from scratch.
The Project
The scheme involves the major refurbishment of four occupied residential tower blocks in West London, incorporating extensive internal and external works, building upgrades and wider regeneration works.
You'll be commercially leading the project while managing an established team consisting of:
2 Senior Quantity Surveyors
Project Quantity Surveyor
Assistant Quantity Surveyor
Trainee Quantity Surveyor
The role is client-facing and will involve working closely with the operational team and senior commercial management.
You'll typically be expected on site around three days per week, providing a good level of flexibility around the remainder of your working week.
What You'll Be Doing
Take commercial responsibility for a major residential refurbishment project
Lead, support and develop an established Quantity Surveying team
Manage project budgets, forecasts and CVRs
Oversee subcontract procurement and package management
Manage variations, valuations and final accounts
Identify and manage commercial risks and opportunities
Work closely with the client and operational delivery team
Lead commercial meetings and provide accurate financial reporting
Support and mentor junior members of the commercial team
Ensure the project maintains strong commercial performance throughout delivery
Who We're Looking For
We're interested in speaking with both established Managing Quantity Surveyors and experienced Senior Quantity Surveyors who feel ready to step up.
You'll ideally have:
Main contractor experience
Strong Senior Quantity Surveyor-level commercial experience
Residential refurbishment, regeneration, recladding, planned works or major refurbishment experience
Experience managing substantial subcontract packages
Strong CVR, forecasting and commercial reporting experience
Good contractual knowledge
Confidence dealing directly with clients and senior stakeholders
Experience supporting or managing junior Quantity Surveyors
Occupied refurbishment experience would be advantageous, but isn't essential if you have strong relevant main contractor experience.
Why Consider It?
This isn't simply a move onto another project.
It's an opportunity to take greater ownership, lead an established commercial team and potentially make the step from Senior QS into Managing QS within a major contractor.
The business has a reputation for retaining its people, offering a sensible work-life balance and providing long-term career opportunities. They've even had employees leave for opportunities elsewhere and subsequently return to the business.
The package includes:
85,000-95,000 basic salary
5,200 car allowance or company car
Minimum 5% annual bonus
Private healthcare
Excellent pension contribution
Travel expenses
Around three days per week on site
Long-term project and secured workload
Genuine progression for an ambitious Senior QS
If you're an experienced Senior Quantity Surveyor wondering what the next step looks like, or an established Managing QS considering a change, we'd be keen to have a confidential conversation.
