About Us:

CubicWorks is a new business that concentrates on and delivers construction refurbishments and fit-outs, taking tried and tested formulas, shaking them up, then delivering for customer success. We design and create extraordinary spaces through our unique collaborative position with customers and partners. To deliver solutions sustainably, transparently and with integrity.

We must achieve our goals by delivering our projects the right first time, and to ensure this happens, we have an opportunity for a Quantity Surveyor who has a relentless focus on quality and detail and is a confident communicator to join our Operational team.

We’re not looking for people who sit down and say “that’ll do”. We operate with an agile mindset in a fast-paced environment, and we are always looking to continually improve and evolve. We value speed, agility, innovation and being brilliant to work with. Our ambitious goals present a tremendous opportunity for change. We work hard to deliver, and there’s a lot to do, but the ability to have an impact here is endless.
