Building Surveyor, Sheffield

An established and highly respected consultancy is looking to appoint a Building Surveyor to support the continued growth of its project delivery team.

This is a slightly different opportunity from a traditional Building Surveying position, offering a strong blend of project management, contract administration and Clerk of Works-style responsibilities across a national project portfolio.

The role would suit someone who enjoys being involved on-site, managing quality, overseeing contractors and taking ownership of projects through delivery rather than sitting purely in a professional services environment.

Working directly with clients, end users and contractors, you’ll play a key role in ensuring projects are delivered safely, correctly and to a high standard from inception through to completion.

The Role

• Acting as the key liaison between end users, contractors and project stakeholders
• Managing refurbishment, adaptations and improvement projects across multiple residential sites nationally
• Undertaking site inspections and monitoring quality of workmanship throughout delivery
• Preparing schedules of work and technical project documentation
• Administering contracts and managing project progress on site
• Assessing completed works and authorising contractor payments
• Managing contractor performance and ensuring compliance with project specifications
• Supporting delivery programmes and resolving on-site issues where required
• Providing clients with regular project updates and reporting

About You

• Background within Building Surveying, Project Management or Clerk of Works environments
• Experience overseeing construction works on site
• Strong contract administration and project coordination skills
• Comfortable managing relationships with contractors, consultants and end users
• Ability to assess workmanship and monitor quality standards effectively
• Experience preparing schedules of work and technical reports
• Full UK driving licence and willingness to travel nationally
• MRICS qualification beneficial but not essential
