The business currently turns over approximately £12m and operates with a tight-knit team of Quantity Surveyors and Project Managers within a flat management structure.
Clients include Royal London, Bloomberg, AXA and Aviva, with projects delivered across a range of prime London commercial buildings. Recent schemes include projects at 10 Chiswell Street and Brook Street in Mayfair. Projects typically involve internal fit-out packages including drylining, M&E, joinery and decoration, delivered through a trusted and established supply chain.
The role is primarily office-based in the West End with regular site visits, offering strong collaboration with the wider delivery team.
