Take ownership of major MEP packages. Work on high-profile projects. Build your career within a consultancy that genuinely invests in its people.

We're working with a highly regarded multidisciplinary construction consultancy that is continuing to expand its Cost Management team in Cambridge.

With a strong pipeline of exciting projects across the healthcare, education, infrastructure, regeneration and public sectors, they are looking for an experienced Senior MEP Quantity Surveyor to take a leading role in the commercial delivery of complex mechanical and electrical packages.

This is an opportunity for someone who wants more than simply managing numbers. You'll have genuine ownership of your projects, direct exposure to clients and senior stakeholders, and the opportunity to influence commercial strategy from early-stage cost planning through to final account.

The Opportunity
You'll join an established and collaborative team, working across a varied portfolio of significant developments while having the autonomy to make your mark.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Taking commercial ownership of MEP packages across major projects.
• Producing cost plans, estimates, budgets and tender documentation.
• Developing and implementing effective procurement strategies.
• Managing tender processes, contractor appointments and commercial negotiations.
• Administering NEC and JCT contracts throughout the project lifecycle.
• Managing valuations, variations, change control and final accounts.
• Identifying commercial risks and opportunities and implementing appropriate mitigation.
• Leading value engineering exercises to maximise project value.
• Advising clients on commercial strategy and project cost throughout the lifecycle.
• Building strong relationships with clients, contractors and wider project teams.
• Leading commercial meetings, workshops and client presentations.
• Supporting and mentoring junior members of the team where appropriate.

What We're Looking For
We're keen to speak with experienced MEP Quantity Surveyors who are commercially strong, client-focused and ready to take greater ownership of major projects.

You'll ideally have:

• A degree in Quantity Surveying, Commercial Management or a related construction discipline.
• Strong experience within MEP Quantity Surveying / Building Services.
• Proven experience managing mechanical and electrical packages from pre-contract through to final account.
• A strong understanding of NEC and JCT contracts.
• Excellent commercial, negotiation and stakeholder management skills.
• The confidence to deal directly with clients, contractors and senior project stakeholders.
• MRICS status or a genuine commitment towards achieving chartership would be advantageous.
• A proactive approach and ambition to progress within a growing consultancy.
• A full UK driving licence is preferred.

Why This Role?
This is a genuine opportunity to step into a senior position where your experience will have a visible impact.

You'll work on high-profile, technically challenging projects, gain valuable client exposure and have the support to continue developing your career - whether that means progressing towards chartership or ultimately moving into a senior leadership position.

The business has built a strong reputation for delivering quality work while maintaining a genuinely collaborative culture. You'll be joining a team where people are supported, development is encouraged and progression is achievable.

What's on Offer?

• 60,000- 80,000 salary, depending on experience
• Private healthcare
• Competitive pension contribution
• Paid professional memberships
• Full APC / chartership support
• Travel expenses covered for office and site visits
• Genuine long-term career progression
