Job Description:

Associate / Junior Associate – Cost Management

An exciting opportunity has arisen to join a commercially focused consultancy that is truly best-in-class. This agile and dynamic firm combines the scale and capability to deliver complex projects with a genuine commitment to providing high-quality, client-focused service.

We are seeking a talented Senior Cost Manager or Junior Associate, ideally already operating in a team lead capacity, to join this bright and ambitious business. The role offers strong commercial sector exposure, working with lenders, developers, investors, and technology companies to deliver transformational buildings and workplaces where people can collaborate and thrive.

This opportunity would particularly suit someone currently working within a larger, more established corporate environment who is looking for a breath of fresh air—a place where they can broaden their impact, take ownership, and continue to grow professionally. The company prides itself on being collaborative, diverse, and innovative, offering an excellent working environment and genuine career progression.

We would be keen to speak with individuals who meet the following criteria:

  • MRICS qualified
  • Some team leadership or management experience
  • Commercial sector consultancy cost management experience, ideally with a minimum of 5 years’ experience
  • A strong track record delivering London-based projects autonomously and successfully
  • Excellent stakeholder management skills
  • A natural ability and desire to build and nurture both existing and new client relationships
  • If this sounds like you, I would love to hear from you. Please get in touch at e.drake@stratusrecruitment.com to arrange a call or a confidential meeting.
