Senior Project Manager – Surveying

Our client is looking for an experienced Chartered Surveyor/Project Manager to join their loss adjusting team, working across a mixed portfolio of commercial, major, and complex material damage insurance claims.

You’ll take ownership of building repair projects from instruction to completion — scoping CDM requirements, managing contractors, controlling costs, and keeping clients informed throughout. It’s a senior, client-facing role with real variety and the opportunity to mentor junior colleagues and lead the team.

  • Prepare Bills of Quantities, Schedules of Work, and tender documentation.
  • Scope CDM requirements and manage compliance across all projects.
  • Control costs and budgets, prepare interim valuations, and certify payments.
  • Negotiate with contractors on variations and costs.
  • Report to clients and stakeholders at each stage of the project.
  • Support client meetings and mentor less experienced team members.

You’ll be ARICS, MRICS, or FRICS qualified (or working towards it), with solid project management and CDM experience and at least 5 years in insurance or a closely related field. Exposure to subsidence, fire, flood, or other complex building claims is a real advantage.

  • Chartered status (ARICS/MRICS/FRICS) preferred.
  • Strong CDM and JCT contract experience.
  • Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills.
  • Organised, analytical, and able to manage a varied caseload independently.

A well-regarded organisation, a genuinely varied caseload, and real scope to make your mark.
