Chartered Building Surveyor or Quantity Surveyor

Manchester | £45,000 - £70,000+ DOE + Bonus + Excellent Benefits

There are plenty of consultancies that talk about culture, flexibility and progression. Very few have built a business where those things genuinely come first.

Our client is an independently owned property consultancy that has grown through reputation rather than acquisition, creating an environment where Building Surveyors are trusted to manage their own workload, build lasting client relationships and develop their careers without unnecessary layers of hierarchy.

With a strong pipeline of instructions across the commercial, industrial and residential sectors, they are looking to appoint a Chartered Building Surveyor to join their Manchester office.

It is possible that a suitably qualified and experienced Quantity Surveyor might fit the bill, particularly where a lack of experience in non-project building surveying skills is o?set by project management/cost, and contract knowledge.

A Role with Real Variety:

This is a broad Building Surveying role, offering exposure across both professional and project-led work, including:

  • Contract Administration
  • Building Surveys
  • Dilapidations
  • Schedules of Condition
  • Defect Diagnosis
  • Planned Preventative Maintenance
  • Refurbishment and asset improvement projects

The business actively encourages surveyors to broaden their skillset, making it an excellent environment for someone who has previous exposure to cost management or quantity surveying and would like to continue developing that alongside traditional Building Surveying services.

Rather than being confined to one service line, you'll have the freedom to shape your workload and build expertise across multiple disciplines.

The Kind of Surveyor They'll Value:

  • MRICS qualified
  • Consultancy or private practice background
  • Comfortable managing projects and professional instructions
  • Strong communicator who enjoys building long-term client relationships
  • Ambitious, commercially minded and looking for a business where your contribution is recognised

More Than the Salary:

  • £45,000 - £70,000+ salary depending on experience
  • Annual bonus
  • Hybrid and flexible working
  • 25 days annual leave plus bank holidays
  • Private healthcare
  • Company pension scheme
  • Professional subscriptions paid
  • Ongoing CPD and career development
  • Clear progression without waiting for someone above to move on
  • A genuinely supportive, close-knit team where decisions are made quickly and individuals have a real voice

This is the kind of consultancy where people tend to stay. The workload is varied, the leadership team is accessible, and the emphasis is firmly on delivering quality work rather than chasing timesheets and unnecessary internal targets.

A Business Built for the Long Term:

For Building Surveyors who value autonomy and the opportunity to build a long-term career within an established Manchester consultancy, opportunities like this rarely stay on the market for long.
