Competitive Day Rate | PAYE/Umbrella Only - No CIS Available

Daniel Owen are currently recruiting for a Quantity Surveyor on behalf of a well-established principal contractor delivering high-value commercial and education fit-out projects across Leeds.

This is an excellent opportunity to join an established team on an initial 6-month contract, with a strong possibility of extension for the right candidate.

The Role

Working across two major live projects, both valued at over £10 million, you will support the commercial delivery of high-specification fit-out works within the commercial and education sectors.

The projects are delivered under Design & Build (D&B) contracts. Whilst the design is outsourced, the contractor retains full D&B responsibility, so previous experience working within this type of environment is essential.

Responsibilities

• Managing the commercial aspects of two live D&B fit-out projects
• Administering and managing NEC4 contracts
• Cost management, valuations, variations and commercial reporting
• Working closely with site teams to monitor project performance
• Managing subcontractor accounts and commercial documentation
• Using SitePro confidently and efficiently to manage project information
• Supporting the successful commercial delivery of projects through to completion

Requirements

• Approximately 5-10 years' experience as a Quantity Surveyor
• Previous experience on commercial fit-out and/or high-specification education projects
• Experience working on Design & Build contracts
• Strong working knowledge of NEC4 contracts
• Confident user of SitePro, with the ability to use the system efficiently
• Excellent commercial awareness and communication skills
• Full UK driving licence preferred due to travel between sites

Important Payment Information

Please note: This assignment is strictly PAYE or Umbrella only.

CIS payment is NOT available for this role. Applicants must be happy to work either:

• PAYE through Daniel Owen, or
• Via an approved Umbrella company.

Unfortunately, candidates requiring CIS payment cannot be considered.
