Senior Quantity Surveyor | £60m Major Education Scheme | Freelance (Ltd Co) | Hertfordshire
A specialist contractor delivering large-scale education and public sector schemes is looking to appoint a Senior Quantity Surveyor on a freelance basis to support a major project currently moving into its main construction phase.

The position will split time between site in Twickenham and the company’s office in Hertfordshire.
