Cost clarity builds confidence — and the best commercial developments are shaped by Quantity Surveyors who bring rigour, foresight and sharp commercial instinct to every stage of the project lifecycle.

At Architecture Social, we work closely with cost consultancies, multidisciplinary practices and developer-side teams delivering offices, retail schemes, mixed-use developments and commercial fit-outs across London and the South East. Our consultants regularly brief us on their need for Quantity Surveyors who combine strong measurement skills with confident client-facing advisory work. We maintain active shortlists so that when these roles arise, we can connect the right candidates immediately.

What Our Clients Typically Ask For:

• Quantity Surveyors experienced in cost planning from feasibility through to final account on commercial building projects
• Professionals skilled in preparing bills of quantities, tender documentation and procurement strategies for competitive and negotiated routes
• Candidates confident in post-contract cost management including valuations, variations, loss and expense claims and final accounts
• QSs with working knowledge of JCT and NEC contract suites and experience administering contract provisions
• Individuals proficient in CostX, CATO or similar measurement and cost management software
• Professionals who are MRICS qualified or progressing through APC with strong analytical and numerical capabilities
• Surveyors who communicate cost information clearly to clients, architects and project managers throughout the project lifecycle

If your cost management expertise and commercial acumen consistently deliver certainty for clients and project teams, we want to hear from you.
