Associate Director - Building Surveying

AECOM Building Surveying Team are looking to recruit an enthusiastic Associate Director to join our Newcastle Team. For the successful candidate, they will be undertaking various levels of work expected of an Associate Director, whilst reporting into our Senior and Management team. Projects may include live healthcare facilities, live commercial premises, schools, and university buildings mostly based in the Northeast.

The successful candidate will be tasked with winning and delivering work throughout the Northeast region and beyond. In addition to this we will be looking to grow a Building Surveying offering from our Newcastle office. We have a strong national Building Surveying community, collaborating, co-operating and delivering daily. Being part of this 60 strong team in 12 offices may involve occasional travel within the UK, and the opportunity for some international travel.

In the past 24 months, Surveyors from the UK have worked in Los Angeles, San Francisco and Cologne for example. There are opportunities for surveys in the USA and Middle East in 2026/27.

You will be based in our Newcastle Office; however, we operate a ‘Freedom to Grow’ policy where staff have the option of working in the office or from home as they wish, together with the ability to flex their hours. The Surveyor will still be expected to work from the office at least one day per week. There is no limitation to career progression within our Building Surveying team, and you will be encouraged to develop to be the best you can be, grow and flourish as a surveyor and developing business, and embark on a long term career with AECOM.

You will be fully supported, encouraged and mentored with your journey.
