These are long-term freelance roles (12 months+) where you'll be central to managing subcontractor accounts, driving commercial processes, and ensuring best practice across cost and contract management. This is not a senior management or strategic role - the right people will be "doers" who are comfortable rolling up their sleeves and delivering the day-to-day QS duties at a high standard.

Reporting: Support the project commercial team with CVRs, forecasts, and cashflow reporting. Collaboration: Work closely with the project team and client to ensure smooth commercial delivery. Support: Provide assistance and guidance to QS colleagues where required. Requirements Experience Level: Proven track record as a Quantity Surveyor or Senior Quantity Surveyor (minimum 5+ years' experience). Contracts: Essential - strong working knowledge of NEC forms of contract. Sector Background: Highways experience is desirable, but strong subcontract management experience in civil engineering/infrastructure is equally valued. Approach: Proactive, detail-oriented, and commercially astute - someone who delivers, not just oversees.

Qualifications: Degree in Quantity Surveying, Commercial Management, or equivalent (professional membership desirable but not essential).
