What the role covers

John Sisk and Son is recruiting an Assistant Quantity Surveyor at Avonmouth, Bristol, working in the commercial reactive and minor works team on a framework contract. The posting sets the work out as supervised commercial delivery: preparing tenders, measuring and packaging the work, analysing returns, preparing variations and valuations, subcontract valuations and final accounts, taking site measurements and attending site and subcontractor meetings. The holder maintains site records and control documents, measures progress on site and prepares the application for payment to the client. The advert also asks for involvement in the cost value reconciliation, and the employer states that responsibility grows as capability develops, so that an assistant should be preparing a reconciliation without third party input before promotion. Exposure to subcontractor negotiation, the interpretation of contract law and design and build arrangements is offered without responsibility at this grade. Applicants must be fully conversant with the Standard Method of Measurement and have used schedules of rates to prepare quotations and applications for payment. A quantity surveying degree, completed or in progress, is required, and an HNC or HND in quantity surveying is listed as desirable. The employer states the position is full time and lists 26 days of holiday, an employer pension, travel expenses and enhanced parental leave. The advert carries the reference 2026-2916 and no salary figure.
