  • Previous Quantity Surveying experience within infrastructure, utilities or civil engineering
  • Strong all-round commercial experience
  • Experience taking projects through commercial close-out and final account
  • Good subcontract management experience
  • Strong understanding of cost control, forecasting and change management
  • The ability to pick up existing projects and quickly understand their commercial position
  • Strong organisational skills and the ability to manage multiple schemes simultaneously
