Building Maintenance Solutions Limited is part of the wider BAML Property Management Company who have a portfolio of some of Europe’s largest urban development projects.

As the scale and ambition of our work grows, we never forget the importance of working to the highest standards on every individual element of every development, in which people, business, culture and society thrive.

We’re powered by our people - This ethos is only possible because of our people, who work as one team to constantly and consistently deliver a service to which we are proud to put our name.

As Quantity Surveyor you will support the Project Team to keep a close eye on project finances and contractual relationships and assist in managing and delivering a range of packages. You will be involved in the procurement of capital expenditure packages, insurance work packages and building work packages managing costs from initial calculations to the final figures, minimising the costs where possible, enhancing value for money while still achieving the required standards and quality.

In addition to your role as Quantity Surveyor, you will also be expected to take on or assist with providing project management services to stakeholders for project and programme management, contract administration and cost consultancy.

Taking ownership of post contract, you’ll make sure that the financial position of those works is accurately reported and controlled effectively, managing the contractual relationships between Building Maintenance Solutions and the Stakeholders.
