Assistant Quantity Surveyor - Tier 1 Contractor

Location: Hertfordshire
Salary: Up to £47,000 + full package

Ready to step up your Quantity Surveying career?

This is a chance to join a leading Tier 1 main contractor that is known for developing its people properly, not just using them to plug gaps. If you're a Trainee, Junior or Assistant Quantity Surveyor with at least two years' experience and you want:

  • better structure
  • stronger mentorship
  • and long‑term progression

This role gives you that platform.

Why this role stands out

  • Tier 1 main contractor with long-term secured workload
  • Clear commercial structure and experienced leadership around you
  • Exposure to major projects and recognised processes
  • Genuine investment in training, development and promotion
  • A role designed to grow with you, not cap you

What you'll be doing

  • Supporting the commercial team across live construction projects
  • Assisting with cost control, valuations, procurement and reporting
  • Working closely with Senior Quantity Surveyors and Commercial Managers
  • Gaining hands‑on exposure to managing packages from early stages through delivery
  • Building solid foundations to progress to Quantity Surveyor level

What we're looking for:

  • At least 2 years' experience in the construction industry
  • Experience with a main contractor (essential)
  • Involvement in supporting or managing project packages
  • Someone ambitious, driven and keen to learn
  • Good communication skills and a professional mindset

This role suits someone who wants support, structure and progression, not just a job title.

What's on offer:

  • Up to £47,000 basic salary
  • Competitive benefits package
  • Clear progression route within a recognised Tier 1 environment
  • Support from experienced Senior QSs and Commercial Managers
  • Immediate interview availability - the team is ready to move quickly
