Senior Quantity Surveyor London | Up to £110,000 + Package

Are you a commercially astute Senior Quantity Surveyor looking to step into a high-impact role within a forward-thinking workplace design and delivery business?

We are partnering confidentially with an award-winning London-based commercial interiors specialist that is redefining how modern workplaces are designed and delivered. Blending architecture, interior design, and fit-out under one roof, this business has carved out a unique position between traditional architecture practices and fast-track fit-out contractors. With a strong pipeline of high-value Cat A and Cat B commercial office projects across London, they work with leading landlords and occupiers across sectors including finance, gaming, retail, and global corporate brands. The Opportunity Due to continued growth and a strong secured order book, they are seeking a Senior Quantity Surveyor to take commercial ownership of key projects and play a pivotal role within the commercial team. This is not a back-office QS role. You will be commercially leading projects from pre-construction through to final account, working closely with design, delivery, and client teams in a highly collaborative environment.

Key Responsibilities

  • Full commercial management of high-spec commercial fit-out projects
  • Cost planning and budgeting during pre-construction
  • Procurement strategy and subcontractor management
  • Contract administration (JCT Design & Build experience preferred)
  • Risk management and value engineering
  • Managing variations, valuations, and final accounts
  • Supporting and mentoring junior commercial staff where appropriate

What We’re Looking For

  • Proven experience as a Senior QS within commercial fit-out or design & build
  • Strong knowledge of the London office interiors market
  • Experience delivering Cat A & Cat B projects
  • Confident managing multiple stakeholders, including landlords and blue-chip occupiers
  • Commercially sharp, proactive, and solutions-driven
  • Degree-qualified in Quantity Surveying or related discipline

Why This Role?

  • Salary up to £110,000 (DOE)
  • Strong bonus and benefits package
  • Award-winning, design-led business with an excellent market reputation
  • Genuinely collaborative culture — not a traditional contractor environment
  • Clear progression pathway into Commercial Lead / Commercial Director level
  • Exposure to landmark London workplace projects

This is a rare opportunity to join a business that combines creativity with commercial rigour — delivering workplaces that people genuinely want to spend time in.
