Leading Residential Developer

I’m working with a Managing QS I know well for a leading Residential Contractor, regional offices based out of Leicester.

He is seeking a QS due to wealth of live residential new build projects as well as recent new wins for more live projects to kick off this year.

Will look at salaries up to £65,000 plus additional package (car allowance, bonus, healthcare, pension, life insurance etc).

Typical Duties:
Working closely with other departments, including Land, Development and Construction, you will attend design meetings to advise on all areas that may have a cost implication.
Attend development meetings when appropriate, contract pre-start and subcontract package review meetings.
Upon receipt of Contract Documentation, you will be responsible for checking all contract drawings to identify errors, omissions, anomalies and areas where unnecessary cost may arise.
Assess site staffing levels and build programmes with the Construction Director to ascertain preliminary costs, including collating all cost information and preparing the start on site budget.
Issue variation orders and development changes alongside providing cost advice on major variations prior to issue.
Check all costs posted to each contract, collate and reconcile all costs resulting from subcontract works, variation orders, site instructions, material order and preliminary / running costs.
Check and arrange subcontractor payments.
Take responsibility for the preparation of documents for the basis of external valuation with the client’s agent (CSA, Stage payment schedule, Tick offs).
Attend site meetings, project team meetings, subcontractor meetings and surveying meetings as required.
