Graduate Building Surveyor

My client is seeking a proactive and motivated Graduate Surveyor for a short-term assignment inspecting completed works across residential properties in the West Yorkshire area. This is a great opportunity for someone recently out of university to gain hands-on experience in a surveying environment.

• Location: West Yorkshire - including Leeds, Wakefield, Bradford, and Halifax
• Duration: 3-4 months (immediate start available)
• Rate: 170 per day
• Hours: Monday to Friday, 9am - 5pm

• Visit properties to confirm that minor works (e.g., decoration of kitchen ceilings) have been completed
• Obtain tenant signatures on pre-prepared A4 sign-off forms
• Where tenants are not available or decline to sign, record this on the form and take a supporting photo
• Submit confirmations via WhatsApp or agreed digital method
• Group property visits efficiently to minimise travel (e.g., cluster site visits by area)
• Use discretion on how to approach scheduling - either book in advance or door-knock

• Recent graduate or someone early in their surveying career
• Based locally in West Yorkshire
• Full UK driving licence and access to a vehicle
• Organised, proactive, and able to manage their own schedule
• No extensive experience required - great entry-level exposure

My client is a well-established Leeds-based consultancy providing surveying and property services across the public and private sectors. They are currently working in partnership with a major social housing provider to support property inspections and verification tasks across the West Yorkshire region.
