Commercial Manager​/Quantity Surveyor

Commercial Manager / Quantity Surveyor

London

Up to £70,000 + Bonus + Benefits

I'm working with one of London's most respected workplace design and fit out specialists, a business that's built its reputation by doing things differently. Rather than separating design and delivery, they bring both together under one roof, creating workplaces that are as commercially successful as they are visually impressive. With a client base spanning occupiers, landlords and developers, they've delivered projects ranging from high-end headquarters and flexible work spaces through to large-scale refurbishment and fit out schemes.

A significant proportion of their work comes from repeat business, reflecting the quality of both their people and project delivery.

As the business continues to grow, they're looking to appoint a Commercial Manager / Quantity Surveyor to support the delivery of workplace projects across London.

This is a true delivery-focused commercial role. Rather than getting involved solely at tender stage, you'll take ownership once projects are won, working closely alongside Project Managers, Construction Managers and clients to manage costs, control risk and maximise project performance through to final account.

What You'll Be Doing

Taking commercial ownership of multiple workplace fit out and refurbishment projects through the delivery phase
Managing project budgets, cost control, forecasting and cashflow
Preparing and agreeing client valuations and applications for payment
Assessing, pricing and negotiating project variations with clients and delivery teams
Producing monthly cost reports and providing commercial insight to senior stakeholders
Managing final accounts and ensuring projects are closed out successfully
Identifying commercial risks and opportunities throughout the project lifecycle
Supporting Project Managers and Construction Managers with commercial decision-making
Building strong relationships with clients, consultants and subcontractors
Ensuring projects are delivered profitably while maintaining high levels of client satisfaction
This is a delivery-focused role rather than a traditional contractor QS position. Procurement is managed elsewhere in the business, allowing you to focus on commercial management, valuations, variations, reporting and project performance from start to finish.

What We're Looking For

Experience as a Quantity Surveyor, Project QS, Senior QS or Commercial Manager within fit out, interiors, refurbishment or construction
Strong knowledge of project delivery, cost management and contract administration
Experience managing valuations, variations and final accounts
Commercially astute with excellent communication and negotiation skills
Able to build effective relationships with clients, consultants and project teams
Ambitious, proactive and keen to develop within a growing business

What's On Offer?

Salary up to £70,000
Bonus scheme
Private healthcare
Pension contribution
Hybrid working
Clear progression opportunities
Exposure to some of London's most exciting workplace projects
A collaborative, people-first culture where individuals are trusted, empowered and encouraged to develop their careers
