Salary: £28,000 - £30,000+ DOE 

Looking to kickstart your career in Building Surveying? We're on the lookout for a Graduate Building Surveyor to join our Building Surveying & Project Management team in Colchester.

This isn't your standard "sit behind a desk" role - you'll be hands-on from day one. Expect to get involved in:

  • Surveys, design and specification work
  • Contract administration and project management
  • Monitoring construction works on-site
  • Preparing drawings, tender documents, planning/building regulation applications
  • Working directly with clients across public sector, military, education, commercial, health and cultural projects

You'll be learning from a team with varied experience, and given the tools to grow quickly - from AutoCAD and Revit training, through to contract administration and project management support.

What you'll need:

  • A degree in Building Surveying
  • Strong communication and organisational skills
  • A proactive approach and willingness to get stuck in
  • Driving licence (as you'll be on site)

What's on offer:

  • £ Competitive salary (regularly reviewed and benchmarked)
  • 25 days holiday + bank holidays, festive shutdown & long-service recognition
  • Flexible & remote working options
  • In-house coaching, mentoring and CPD support
  • Professional membership support
  • Company pension scheme & health cash plan
  • Early finish incentives when targets are met
  • Volunteering leave (up to 2 days)
  • Fully expensed seasonal socials & team events
  • Cycle-to-work scheme, season ticket loan, on-site parking 
  • A supportive team environment where you'll be encouraged to develop

This is a great chance to build your career with a practice that works on projects of all shapes and sizes, and values its people as much as its clients.
