Cost Manager

Package: Competitive salary and comprehensive package

Are you looking for a client-side Quantity Surveyor position where you can influence investment decisions rather than simply report on costs?

A leading UK hospitality operator is expanding its property team to support an exciting programme of acquisitions, developments and investment across its national estate.

Reporting to the Head of Capital Projects, you will take commercial ownership of projects from early feasibility through to final delivery. You will work closely with senior stakeholders, influence how capital is invested and help create the commercial standards and benchmarking information that will guide future projects.

The opportunity:

• Take commercial ownership of a varied portfolio of capital projects
• Prepare and manage project budgets, forecasts and cost plans
• Support acquisition feasibility and development appraisals
• Review project performance and identify emerging commercial risks
• Manage external Quantity Surveyors, consultants and contractors
• Support tendering, procurement and contractor selection
• Challenge cost information and ensure genuine value for money
• Develop project cost and benchmarking data
• Help improve commercial processes across a growing property function

We are looking for a commercially astute Quantity Surveyor / Cost Manager with approximately three to five years’ experience. You may already be chartered or working towards MRICS status.

Experience within hospitality, retail, leisure or another multi-site operator would be particularly relevant.

This is an excellent opportunity to move into a visible client-side role where your judgement will be valued, your ideas will be heard and your work will directly influence the future of a growing national portfolio.
