Senior Quantity Surveyor

Sydney, NSW

A well-established national property and construction consultancy is seeking a Senior Quantity Surveyor to join its Sydney team.

With more than 50 years of industry experience, the consultancy has built a strong reputation for delivering independent cost management and advisory services across both public and private sector projects. Offering a balanced portfolio of work and a collaborative team environment, this is an excellent opportunity to join a stable business with genuine long-term career prospects.

Role Overview

This role is suited to a Quantity Surveyor with 5+ years' consultancy experience who is looking to take ownership of projects while continuing to develop their career within an established national consultancy.

You'll manage projects across a diverse range of sectors, providing cost management services from feasibility through to project completion. Working closely with clients and project teams, you'll play a key role in delivering commercial outcomes while mentoring junior team members and building long-term client relationships.

Key Responsibilities

• Prepare cost plans, estimates and feasibility studies across all project stages
• Manage project budgets and provide ongoing cost reporting
• Prepare tender documentation and procurement advice
• Assess variations, progress claims and final accounts
• Build and maintain strong client and stakeholder relationships
• Deliver commercial advice throughout the project lifecycle
• Mentor and support junior Quantity Surveyors
• Manage multiple projects across both public and private sector clients

Skills & Experience

• Degree qualified in Quantity Surveying or a related discipline
• 5+ years' consultancy Quantity Surveying experience
• Strong experience across pre-contract and post-contract services
• Excellent cost planning and financial management skills
• Strong communication and stakeholder management abilities
• Ability to manage projects independently while working collaboratively within a team
• AIQS membership or working towards accreditation is highly regarded

Why This Role Stands Out

• Diverse portfolio across public and private sector projects, offering excellent variety
• Hybrid working with up to two days working from home
• Clear career progression within an established national consultancy
• Collaborative and supportive team culture with strong mentorship
• Long-standing business with over 50 years of industry experience
• Opportunity to take ownership of projects while continuing to develop professionally

This is an excellent opportunity for a Senior Quantity Surveyor looking to broaden their project exposure while joining a respected consultancy that offers flexibility, stability and long-term career growth.
