Quantity Surveyor
Building a sustainable tomorrow
BAM Site Solutions are looking for an experienced Quantity Surveyor to join the commercial team of a busy contracting business based in Wellingborough. You’ll provide primary commercial support to our delivery teams, with a particular focus on integrated temporary works packages across a varied portfolio of live projects. It’s a role that offers genuine breadth — you’ll see packages of all shapes and sizes, work alongside subject matter experts, and build a well-rounded commercial skill set in a fast-moving operational environment. For the right person, it’s a strong platform for career progression within a structured, high-performing team.
Making Possible
Overseeing commercial performance of packages across multiple accounts. Taking ownership of the commercial progress of your packages — compiling monthly cost and revenue data, tracking budgets, actuals and forecasts, and negotiating account queries to secure interim payments.
Subcontractor and supply chain management. Owning subcontractor relationships across your packages, developing and applying SLAs for consistency, and resolving queries promptly so projects keep moving.
Tendering and procurement. Working closely with our Estimators, you’ll be responsible for the commercial sign-off of tender submissions, analyse returns for best value and compliance, and support the procurement of both labour and materials.
Cost control and value engineering. Tracking cost progress across current packages and establishing risks and opportunities as they emerge. A core part of the role is robust project-level costing — building an accurate picture of cost at project and package level, and making sure progress claims are properly aligned with works actually completed on the ground.
Broader commercial support. As well as keeping internal stakeholders updated on the progress of their works, you’ll resolve disputes, advise the wider team on CIS, and generally act as a reliable commercial point of contact across the business. IND1
What’s in it for you?
- A varied portfolio of projects and packages
- Broad commercial exposure across multiple live schemes
- A supportive team with clear routes for progression
- Mentoring from experienced SMEs
- Competitive salary and benefits package

- A Quantity Surveying qualification and solid experience in a QS role
- Strong command of subcontract management and core commercial processes
- Confidence handling applications, valuations and invoice queries
- Working knowledge of the Construction Industry Scheme (CIS) in practice
- Strong organisational skills with the ability to prioritise effectively across multiple live workstreams
- Good communication instincts — you can build relationships across internal teams and the supply chain, as well as customers.
