Description

The next step for a Quantity Surveyor who wants to grow with a company that’s growing faster.
The utilities world rarely moves this fast.
But when a business goes from £80m to £300m turnover in three years backed by private equity and expanding across renewables, power, and water it opens up serious opportunity for commercial people who want their next move to mean something.
This is one of those moments.
The Bigger Picture
This organisation is scaling fast.
They’re bringing in Quantity Surveyors across two sides of the business Major Projects (battery storage, wind, and solar) and Non-Major / Maintenance (high-volume, lower-value work that keeps power and water networks running).
Both areas are essential.
Both need QSs who can think commercially, challenge constructively, and keep things moving as the growth curve steepens.
Who You’ll Be Joining
They’re a PE-backed utilities contractor known for backing their people through training, chartership, and genuine career acceleration.
They’ve built a flexible, hybrid culture (3–4 days in the office or on-site, 1–2 from home) where performance counts more than being in the office
People who do well here are proactive, ideas-led, and comfortable in a fast-moving environment that still looks after its team.
What You’ll Do
Depending on which side of the business you join, your focus will shift but the commercial expectations remain high:
Major Projects:
*
Take over live energy projects (battery, wind, solar) with full commercial responsibility.
*
Manage subcontractor accounts, measurement, change, and risk.
*
Lead cost reporting and keep delivery partners aligned commercially.
Maintenance / Non-Major:
*
Oversee smaller, repeat works CVRs, cost reports, WIP monitoring, and variations.
*
Liaise with clients and keep commercial information accurate and current.
*
Ensure profitability and visibility across a high-volume workload.
Across both, you’ll have support from a committed Commercial Manager and access to chartership routes and structured progression.
Why People Stay
*
Huge growth = career acceleration.
*
Structured chartership and professional development.
*
PE backing = security and investment.
*
Modern hybrid setup and a team that values balance.
*
A culture of promoting from within genuinely lived, not just claimed.
You’ll Fit Best If You…
*
Are contractually aware (NEC / JCT / FIDIC / Bespoke experience all valued).
*
Have a good personality approachable, confident, professional with clients.
*
Want to learn, lead, and eventually replace your manager (their words, not ours).
*
Are flexible whether your experience is in utilities, civils, or another sector, solid QS principles are what count.
The Details
*
Location: Wakefield base for Maintenance; UK-wide travel for Major Projects (expenses covered).

Contract: Permanent, full-time.
*
Salary: £50–60k + £5.1k car allowance + pension + 25 days holiday + BHs + benefits.
