Working closely with two Senior Quantity Surveyors, this Junior QS role offers exposure to the backbone of industrial construction projects. You’ll support the preparation and measurement of Bills of Quantities, assist with cost tracking and payment schedules, obtain and compare subcontractor quotations, and contribute to tender reviews and procurement processes.
There will also be opportunities to attend site meetings, assist with progress measurements, and help ensure projects remain financially controlled from early costing through to completion. The environment is practical and demanding, requiring someone who is comfortable working in a construction setting and who enjoys the detail behind cost management and commercial decision-making.
The ideal candidate will hold a BSc, BTech or Advanced Diploma in Quantity Surveying and have at least one year of post-practical work experience, ideally within the industrial construction space and with an interest in civil works. Strong Excel skills are essential, as much of the reporting and cost tracking relies on accurate spreadsheet work.
Candidates should already be based in Johannesburg and registration with the SACQSP would be advantageous, although not essential. Notably, the company is supportive of individuals who want to pursue professional registration in the future and above all else, this environment suits someone resilient, detail-oriented and able to hold their own in a fast-paced construction team.
