Are you looking for an opportunity to join a business in growth phase?
This a chance to join a business at the right time growing, investing and creating real opportunities for people who want to step up. You'll be given the platform to develop your career, work on a diverse pipeline of projects, and be recognised for the impact you make.
With a major push underway to grow a high-performing multi-disciplinary team in Newcastle, we're looking to bring in a Senior / Chartered Building Surveyor who wants more than just another role.
This is a genuine opportunity for an ambitious Building Surveyor to step into a business that's investing heavily in its people, its capability, and its long-term presence in the North East. You'll be part of a modern consultancy offering that combines technical delivery with a forward-thinking, advisory-led approach to built assets.
Working closely with the wider Building Surveying team in offices throughout the UK, you'll take ownership of a varied workload spanning professional services, project work and technical delivery.
You'll also play a key role in shaping client relationships and, as the business progresses the development of more junior surveyors not just overseeing work, but actively helping people progress.
This isn't a siloed role either. You'll collaborate with teams across the UK on larger national instructions, giving you exposure to bigger clients and more complex schemes, while still maintaining a strong regional presence.

- Supporting the appointment and management of sub-consultants
- Providing clear, commercially aware advice to clients and project teams
- Mentoring and developing junior team members
- Contributing to business development and identifying new opportunities
- Ensuring projects are delivered efficiently, profitably and to a high standard
About You:
- MRICS (or close to achieving it), or equivalent experience
- Strong, well-rounded Building Surveying background across both professional and project work
- Confident in client-facing situations, with the ability to build trust and win repeat business
- Solid understanding of construction methods, contracts and procurement routes
- Experience acting as Contract Administrator / Employer's Agent
- A proactive mindset - someone who wants to get involved, add value and push things forward
- Comfortable mentoring others and contributing to a positive team environment
