Calibre Search are working closely with an up and coming Building Consultancy who after recently opening up an office in Manchester, are now looking to bring in their first Quantity Surveyor to join them on this new venture.

They have a very established office and team down in London where the other QS of the business is based however they now want to replicate this success up north.

The practice themselves boast an impressive client portfolio working with various private developers and housing providers delivering on a range of high profile commercial and residential projects with a particular focus on façade and remediation work.

Due to you being the first QS to join their Manchester team, ideally they are looking to bring in a QS with extensive consultancy background experience having delivered and led on projects offering both pre and post contract services.

Given you will be the first potential QS to join their Manchester office, they were happy to consider both Senior level and Associate level QS's to which of course the package will reflect your experience.

Any business development would be advantageous however they have enough work on so it's more about finding the right person with the right technical QS skills.
