An established property consultancy is looking to appoint an experienced Senior Building Surveyor to its Bristol team.

The opportunity would suit someone who wants to retain the variety of Building Surveying while taking greater ownership of projects and client relationships. The workload combines professional Building Surveying with project-led work, with scope to develop further towards Associate level.

The Role

You will work across a broad range of Building Surveying instructions, with the opportunity to manage your own workload and work directly with clients. Typical work will include:

• JCT Contract Administration
• Refurbishment, maintenance and remedial projects
• Building surveys and condition surveys
• Defect diagnosis and building pathology
• Dilapidations
• Technical due diligence
• Specifications and schedules of works
• Tender documentation
• Managing projects from initial instruction through to completion
• Client and consultant management

The emphasis is on having a good balance of professional and project work, rather than becoming overly specialised in one area.

Why Consider It?

Variety | Maintain exposure to both professional Building Surveying and project delivery.

Ownership |Manage your own instructions and develop direct relationships with clients rather than simply contributing to part of a wider project.

Progression | Take on increasing technical, client and commercial responsibility, with scope to continue developing towards Associate level.

Technical Development | Continue broadening your experience across traditional Building Surveying services, Contract Administration and refurbishment work.

Bristol Market | Build your career within an established Building Surveying team while developing relationships with clients across the region.

What They''re Looking For

Ideally, you will be an MRICS Chartered Building Surveyor with consultancy experience, although experienced surveyors approaching chartership would also be considered.You''ll ideally have:

• A Building Surveying or relevant property/construction degree
• MRICS status or be progressing towards chartership
• Experience within a consultancy or similarly client-facing environment
• A good grounding in professional Building Surveying
• JCT Contract Administration and/or project experience
• Refurbishment and remedial project experience
• Strong technical knowledge and an understanding of building pathology
• Confidence dealing directly with clients
• The ability to manage your own projects and workload

What''s Next?

Someone with a strong technical Building Surveying foundation, good client skills and the ability to manage their own work would be worth a conversation, even if their experience leans more heavily towards either professional or project work.

If you''re a Senior or Chartered Building Surveyor in Bristol or the wider South West and this sounds like the sort of next step you''re looking for, apply with an up-to-date CV.

Equally, your CV doesn''t need to be perfect or completely up to date, so if you''d rather have an initial confidential conversation about the opportunity and whether it would actually represent a worthwhile move, contact:
