Junior Quantity Surveyor Cladding & Facades

North West

£28,000 - £40,000 per annum

We re working with a specialist façade and cladding contractor based in the North who are looking to bring in a Junior Quantity Surveyor to support their commercial team.

The company delivers roofing and façade packages across both commercial and residential projects, working with a range of systems including composite panels and rainscreen cladding. They re still a relatively young business but growing steadily, with a focus on delivering quality work and keeping projects running smoothly.

This role is ideal if you re early in your QS career and want exposure to real projects rather than being stuck doing admin or shadowing indefinitely.

• assisting with cost tracking across multiple projects
• helping prepare valuations and variations
• supporting with subcontractor packages and procurement
• working with site teams to gather project information
• helping maintain budgets and cost reports
• learning how projects are managed commercially from start to finish

There will be a mix of office and site exposure, so you ll get a proper understanding of how jobs run, not just paperwork.

• experience in a Junior QS or Assistant QS role, or a placement/degree background in Quantity Surveying
• some exposure to construction projects, ideally cladding, roofing or envelope works
• a willingness to learn and get involved
• good organisation and attention to detail
• confidence to speak to site teams and ask questions

You don t need to have everything nailed down technically. The key is being proactive and wanting to develop.

Because the company is relatively small, you won t be hidden away doing one small part of the process.

• working closely with the people delivering projects
• getting hands‑on exposure much earlier than you would in a larger company
• given the chance to take on more responsibility as you grow

It s a good environment to learn how façade packages actually work, not just the theory behind them.

If you re looking to build a long-term career in quantity surveying and want to get stuck into real projects early on, this is a solid opportunity to do it.
