LSP are partnering a leading player in the Transmission & Renewables sector, specializing in the design, construction, and commissioning of high-voltage substations and overhead lines (up to 400kV).

We are seeking a commercially astute Managing Quantity Surveyor to lead the commercial delivery of a high-profile, multimillion-pound energy infrastructure project. This is a critical role for a "heavyweight" surveyor who thrives in fast-paced environments and enjoys a mix of site-based engagement and strategic commercial management.

Your Impact in the role?

Commercial Leadership: Drive the commercial strategy across key infrastructure sites, ensuring all financial objectives are met.
Contract Management: Act as the subject matter expert for NEC3/4 contracts, managing notifications, compensation events, and instructions.
Supply Chain Oversight: Lead subcontractor procurement, valuations, and the settlement of final accounts.
Financial Reporting: Prepare accurate CVRs, cash flow forecasts, and project reports for senior stakeholders.
Risk & Recovery: Proactively identify variations and delays, ensuring robust mitigation plans and cost recovery strategies are in place.
Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work closely with Project Managers, Engineers, and Finance teams to ensure operational delivery aligns with commercial targets.

What You Bring?

Experience: Proven track record in Major Infrastructure (Energy, Rail, or Civils). Specific experience in Electricity Transmission (Substations/OHL) is highly advantageous.
Technical Expertise: A deep understanding of NEC3/4 contract suites and commercial strategy.
Education: Degree-qualified in Quantity Surveying (or equivalent "graduate calibre" experience).
Skills: Advanced negotiation skills, commercial "savviness," and proficiency in the MS Office Suite (particularly Excel).
Requirements: A valid UK driving licence is essential for site-based travel.

Competitive Salary & Bonus: Discretionary performance-related bonus scheme.
Mobility: Company car and fuel card (including a wide range of EV/Hybrid options) OR an EV salary sacrifice scheme.

Future Planning: Matched contributory pension scheme and Life Assurance.
Work-Life Balance: 25 days annual leave (+ Bank Holidays) and enhanced family leave policies (Maternity/Paternity/Adoption).
Additional Perks: Cycle-to-work schemes, retail discount portal, and professional recognition rewards.
