About the job

Description

Your new company HAYS Property & Surveying are proud to be working in collaboration with a National Property & Construction specialist, as they search for a Senior Quantity Surveyor for their Belfast office. With this an exciting opportunity for the successful individual to head up their PQS component locally, under the stability of the experience across their UK network - it comes at an exciting time of continued growth and success, both here in Northern Ireland but also further afield. Certainly, the autonomy of this Senior leadership role, coupled with the relative flexibility of the local director's involvement (as opposed to some of their multi-national competitors) should appeal to those looking for more freedom or less red-tape in the day-to-day conducting of their role. Your new role You will lead the QS component of minor works projects being undertaken by this organisation's Belfast Office, and lead the marketing of the organisation's PQS offering - by extension the compilation of bids for public sector opportunities and seeking / growing opportunities across the private sector (both in NI & RoI). Working with local leadership, you'll be tasked with growing the NI team's Project / Cost monitoring output in Belfast, liaising with current clients and seeking to add to the customer base. Due to the scope of works, occasional travel will be required across NI / RoI and wider UK to execute work opportunities in these locations. All other roles & responsibilities will encompass those commonly expected in a PQS position within consultancy (see What you'll need to succeed). What you'll need to succeed You'll be a Chartered Quantity Surveyor with circa 5 years post-Chartership experience placing you at the projected level required to fulfill this function. You'll have practical experience as a 'traditional QS' - ie taking off quantities (QTOs), compiling price lists, valuing and certifying works completed. You should be proficient in the preparation of contractor documents, and have experience across standard forms including NEC3/4, JCT and traditional. Ideally your background will have covered both private and public sector works, but more important is a can-do attitude, team-player ethos and a motivation to success in a stand-alone position within an ambitious consultancy. What you'll get in return A full-time position with an established, well-networked consultancy with coverage across the UK, Ireland and Northern Ireland. With this position forming a pivotal function for their Belfast office, it should genuinely appeal to those looking for an opportunity to showcase their abilities in a supported environment. With attractive office space, progressive remuneration and career development routes, definitely worth exploration if you've been mulling the prospect of opportunities.
