I’m currently working with a leading social housing refurbishment contractor delivering a long-term reactive repairs contract in partnership with a major London borough. They’re looking to add an experienced Quantity Surveyor to their established commercial team based in Streatham.

This is a key role within a £32m annual contract, focused on delivering high-quality reactive maintenance works across the borough. The successful candidate will play a vital part in ensuring monthly commercial targets are achieved — with the team typically managing around £2.5m of spend per month.

The Opportunity:

• Work alongside 10 other Quantity Surveyors in a well-established office with excellent team culture and leadership.
• Clear progression route: those who perform well can quickly progress to Senior Quantity Surveyor level.
• Strong focus on professional development – the company reinvests over 10% of turnover into learning and training, with opportunities for both internal and external development programmes.
• Parking available on site, with a workplace that encourages accessibility and inclusion.

The Role:

• Managing commercial performance and profitability within a busy reactive maintenance environment.
• Monitoring spend and ensuring targets are met or exceeded each month.
• Preparing valuations, forecasts, and financial reports.
• Liaising closely with operational teams, the client, and supply chain partners.
• Ensuring compliance and best practice across all financial processes.

The Ideal Candidate:

• Experienced Quantity Surveyor (or strong Assistant QS ready to step up) within social housing reactive repairs or a similar environment.
• Strong Excel and analytical skills.
• Self-motivated, proactive, and reliable — this team rewards hard work.
• Capable of working independently while contributing positively to a collaborative team.

Salary: Up to £50,000
