Full-Time
Assistant Quantity Surveyor | Prime Residential Contractor

Location: Chelsea, London

Salary: £35,000 – £45,000 + Package (Dependent on Experience)

Role Type: Permanent

The Opportunity

Are you a junior commercial professional looking to move away from general contracting and into the world of ultra prime construction?

We are representing a leading high-end residential contractor based in Chelsea who are synonymous with luxury. They specialize in the refurbishment of Grade I & II listed buildings and the construction of bespoke super-prime residences with project values reaching £15M+.

They are looking for an Assistant Quantity Surveyor who possesses a sharp commercial mind and the "high-end" eye for detail required for luxury finishes.

The Role

Working directly under a Commercial Manager, you will be mentored through the nuances of bespoke contracting. This isn't just about moving numbers on a spreadsheet; it’s about managing artisan sub-contractors and sourcing specialist materials.

Your focus will include:

*

Package Management: Handling high-value specialist packages (bespoke joinery, stone, home automation).

*

Procurement: Negotiating with a niche supply chain.

*

Commercial Support: Assisting with valuations, variations, and cost reporting.

*

Contract Admin: Exposure to JCT forms of contract.

The Candidate

*

Experience: Ideally 12 months+ experience with a main contractor or developer (though high-caliber Graduates with a strong placement year will be considered).

*

Communication: Exceptional verbal and written English is non-negotiable given the client-facing nature of the role.

*

Ambition: You should be eager to work toward your APC/RICS or further professional development.

*

Local Knowledge: Ideally based within a reasonable commute of West London/Chelsea.

What’s in it for you?

*

A chance to build a portfolio of "trophy" projects in the most exclusive postcodes in the world.

*

Direct mentorship and a clear progression path to QS level within 18–24 months.

*

A professional, sophisticated office environment in the heart of Chelsea
