Building Surveyor - Liverpool
I'm working with an established property consultancy looking to appoint a Building Surveyor to join its Liverpool team.
This is an excellent opportunity for a recently qualified or soon-to-be-chartered Building Surveyor who is looking to take the next step in their career, with exposure to a varied workload and the opportunity to manage projects from initial feasibility and design through to completion.
Working across Liverpool and the wider North of England, you'll have the chance to build your technical experience while developing direct relationships with clients and taking increasing ownership of your own instructions.
The Role
You'll work across a mixture of professional and project-led Building Surveying instructions, including:
Managing refurbishment and improvement projects from initial brief through to completion
Undertaking building surveys and defect diagnosis
Preparing specifications and schedules of works
Providing Contract Administration services
Producing tender and contract documentation
Carrying out feasibility studies
Preparing initial designs, costings and project programmes
Undertaking measured surveys and producing drawings using AutoCAD
Advising clients on building regulations, compliance and health & safety requirements
Supporting dilapidations and Party Wall instructions
Liaising with contractors, consultants and other members of the project team
Developing strong relationships with existing and new clients
About You
You'll ideally have a RICS-accredited Building Surveying degree and either be recently qualified or approaching your RICS APC.
You'll have developed a good grounding across areas such as:
Building surveys and building pathology
Contract administration
Specification writing
Tender and contract documentation
Refurbishment and improvement projects
Measured surveys
AutoCAD and technical drawings
Experience in dilapidations and Party Wall matters would be useful, although it isn't essential.
You'll also need strong communication and organisational skills, with the confidence to work directly with clients and manage multiple projects and deadlines.
Why Consider It?
This is a particularly good opportunity if you're at the stage of your career where you want to build on your technical foundations and start taking greater ownership of projects.
Rather than being restricted to a narrow specialism, you'll gain exposure to different aspects of Building Surveying and work with projects throughout their lifecycle.
For someone currently working towards chartership, it also offers the breadth of experience that can be valuable as you progress through your APC and develop towards MRICS status.
Location
The position is based in Liverpool, with projects and clients across the wider North of England.
If you're an Assistant Building Surveyor, recently chartered Building Surveyor or someone approaching their APC and looking for the next step, I'd be keen to have a confidential conversation.
