Description

The Opportunity

I’m working on a genuinely standout opportunity for a Senior Building Surveyor who wants more than just delivery.

This role puts you at the centre of a growing Building Surveying offering within a well-established, global consultancy — with immediate access to major clients and a live pipeline from day one.

You’ll work closely with leadership, take ownership of key instructions, and play a visible role in how this capability evolves over the next 12–24 months.

If you want ownership, visibility, and proper client exposure, this delivers.

The Role

This is a hands-on role with real influence.

You will:

  • Deliver technical due diligence, pre-acquisition surveys, condition surveys, and associated reporting
  • Lead dilapidations instructions and manage negotiations
  • Produce high-quality reports, specifications, and advisory outputs
  • Support technical surveying work linked to existing client instructions
  • Manage multiple projects across national client portfolios
  • Help shape processes, templates, and best practice standards
  • Build relationships with existing clients and identify further opportunities
  • Support and mentor junior team members as the team grows

There is already strong workflow in place. The focus is on quality delivery and building long-term client relationships.

The Business

You’ll be joining a global consultancy with a strong UK presence and an established national client base.

They are investing in strengthening their Building Surveying capability to support existing client relationships across retail and commercial sectors.

The clients are already secured. The demand is already there.

This role is about delivering that work to a high standard and becoming a trusted advisor to those clients.

What I’m Looking For

  • MRICS qualified Building Surveyor
  • Strong experience in professional services (TDD, dilapidations, condition surveys)
  • Background in a consultancy environment
  • Confident and credible with clients
  • Able to manage workload independently
  • Commercially aware and delivery-focused

Experience with retail or multi-site portfolios is useful, but not essential.

Why This Stands Out

  • Immediate access to major clients and existing workload
  • High-quality professional work across national portfolios
  • Opportunity to operate at Senior or Associate level with real influence
  • Exposure to leadership and client development
  • Backed by an established, well-funded consultancy
  • Flexible, hybrid working environment

This is a role where you can take real ownership of client work and build your profile.

Package

  • £60,000 – £70,000 (flexible for the right individual)
  • Car allowance
  • Comprehensive benefits package
  • Hybrid working
  • Clear progression pathway
