The Role
We’re looking for a results driven Managing Quantity Surveyor to join us on our new redevelopment project, Church Street, a JV with our partner Westminster Council, based in Edgware Road. We are currently in preconstruction and over the next 4 years we aim to deliver 430 new homes, redevelop Church Street Library, and provide new community facilities. We are set to commence piling at the end of 2025 meaning you'll have the unique opportunity to join a scheme right from the beginning of construction
In this role, you will be taking ownership of all the commercial, contractual and financial matters relating to sub-contract packages on the Church Street scheme. You’ll be responsible for both internal and external reporting, package procurement and post contract management of the packages in line with the tender event schedule and within the allocated budget, whilst being supported by an already established team that will be reporting into you.
You’ll have extensive experience working as a commercial lead on mid to high rise mixed use residential schemes,
procurement of Groundworks, RC Frame, MEP, Windows & Doors packages is preferred, as well as in-depth commercial knowledge. A proven track record of managing and driving procurement of packages to achieve gains alongside producing CVR’s is just part of the role.
Ours is a high-performance culture. High performance in this role means top-class organisation and attention to detail. We’re looking for someone who’s excited by building strong relationships with not only suppliers but our JV partner, Westminster Council. Following the successful delivery of previous developments the bar is high to keep delivering the quality and certainty that we’re proud to deliver to our partners.
You’ll also be doing it all in an office that we’d wager is one of the nicest on a London site. We kit them out to be cool, comfortable (with big sofas, a proper kitchen and a games areas for the darts players and the pro putters) and nothing like the typical unloved portacabin.

What we do: We’ve worked in partnership for 31 years to create outstanding places in London. We’re growing, with our construction turnover doubling, and with a pipeline of new projects where we’re raring to get started and make a difference.
Why we’re here: We’re here to pursue better, differently.
Better: One of The Sunday Times’ “100 Best Small Companies to Work For” for over a decade, winner of multiple Pride In The Job and WhatHouse awards for our people and the quality of our homes, and proud to have the nation’s best site in our ranks (winning the highest possible marks across the Considerate Constructors Scheme’s five areas – the first site ever to do so in 22 years of the CCS).
Differently: Our culture is unusual. Different means more transparent with information. More direct with feedback that helps us all grow. More rigorous about setting goals, then giving more freedom to go and achieve them. It’s definitely not for everyone. We don’t hire know-it-alls, we hire “learn-it-alls”. As our CEO, Killian, says: “We work hard to find people who thrive on context and responsibility, rather than rules and procedures. We then work like owner managers, not a leader and a load of helpers.”
Benefits:
Private medical insurance for you and your family through Vitality (including discounts on spa breaks, cinema tickets and your food shopping, free Starbucks, 50% off Virgin Active Membership and more).
Income Protection Insurance to help you cope financially if you’re unable to work due to illness or injury, Life Assurance equivalent to four times your salary, your annual leave & Bank Holidays, enhanced maternity and paternity leave and workplace nursery salary sacrifice, allowing you to save tax and NI on monthly nursery fees.
We think the best benefit of being here is the learning culture and the ability to make a real difference – we dislike hierarchy and politics, and “not my job” isn’t in our vernacular. Which means if you really care about raising the bar and really want to feel connected to the end product, as opposed to like a cog in a big machine, this could be the place for you to grow your career.
