An established, highly respected multidisciplinary consultancy is seeking a Quantity Surveyor to join their team supporting one of the most ambitious energy infrastructure programmes in the UK - National Grid’s Great Grid Upgrade. This programme forms part of a £30bn nationwide investment to modernise the electricity network over the next four years, enabling large-scale renewable energy integration and strengthening the UK’s energy resilience.
About the Consultancy:
You will be working with a consultancy renowned for its expertise in delivering complex, technically challenging infrastructure programmes. They are trusted by major clients across the public and private sectors for their collaborative approach, technical excellence, and innovative solutions, and are highly regarded for supporting high-profile, nationally significant projects.
About the Role:
This is a North West remote-based role with occasional travel, so candidates must hold a full driving license and have access to a car. You will contribute to a programme that is transforming the UK’s electricity network, supporting critical upgrades, new substations, and reinforcing existing infrastructure to meet the country’s growing energy demands.
Key Responsibilities:
Assist with cost planning, measurement, and commercial management across multiple high-value infrastructure projects.
Monitor budgets, manage financial reporting, and support cost control across your workstreams.
Support contract administration, including change management, risk tracking, and reporting.
Collaborate closely with clients, contractors, and project teams to ensure smooth project delivery and compliance with programme objectives.
Contribute to one of the largest upgrades of the UK’s electricity network in a generation, helping deliver safe, sustainable, and cost-efficient energy infrastructure.
Ideal Candidate:
2-4 years’ experience in quantity surveying, ideally within construction, civil engineering, or energy infrastructure projects.
Strong commercial awareness and understanding of measurement and cost control processes.
Proactive, solutions-focused, and collaborative with excellent communication skills.
Willingness to travel occasionally to project sites across the North West.
Why This Role Stands Out:
Work on one of the most significant public infrastructure programmes in the UK, with high visibility and national impact.
Join a consultancy celebrated for technical excellence, innovation, and collaborative delivery.
Remote-based flexibility combined with the chance to gain exposure to large-scale, technically complex projects.
Opportunity to be part of a programme that will reshape the UK energy network and enable the transition to renewable energy.
This is a career-defining opportunity for a Quantity Surveyor looking to build experience on a nationally critical, high-profile infrastructure programme while working with a consultancy trusted to deliver excellence on some of the UK’s most complex projects
