Senior Quantity Surveyor

Permanent 
Glasgow

I’m working with a well-established residential developer that delivers high-quality, design-led housing through long-term partnerships across the Central Belt.

This is a role suited to someone who enjoys being properly involved in a project from start to finish, not just managing numbers from a distance. You’ll have autonomy, trust, and the backing of a commercial structure that values consistency, relationships and doing things the right way.

The role:

  • Commercial management of residential projects from pre-contract through to final account
  • Cost control, procurement and subcontractor management
  • Preparation and agreement of valuations, variations and final accounts
  • Working closely with site, design and client teams to ensure commercial performance
  • Supporting and mentoring junior commercial staff where required


What they’re looking for:

  • Proven experience as a Senior Quantity Surveyor within residential construction
  • Strong understanding of cost control and subcontractor procurement
  • Comfortable working in a partnership or framework-style environment
  • Commercially astute, but pragmatic and relationship-focused
  • Degree qualified in Quantity Surveying or similar (or equivalent experience)


Why this one’s worth a look:

  • Stable, long-term workload rather than boom-and-bust projects
  • A business that values relationships, not just margins
  • Supportive commercial leadership and realistic workloads
  • Competitive salary, car allowance, bonus and benefits



If you’re a Senior Quantity Surveyor looking for a role where you’re trusted to do your job properly and be part of a team that works collaboratively rather than combatively, this could be a very good fit.
