Overview:
Knowledge. Passion. Pace. We see more than just contracts.
Role: Senior Quantity Surveyor
Location:Edinburgh
Challenges. Opportunities. Solutions. At Robertson, we see them our way. We’re bold enough to ask questions. Brave enough to look at things differently. Confident enough to be ourselves. Join us and you’ll join the UK’s largest family-owned construction, infrastructure and support services business.
And as Senior Quantity Surveyor, you’ll be part of a team that’s doing incredible things - for ourselves, for the built environment around us, and for a truly sustainable future.
Your new role:
About the role
As a Senior Quantity Surveyor, you’ll be responsible for:
• Liaising with the operational management team and advise on all matters relating to Contract and Commercial issues
• Maintaining accurate financial control systems and report monthly on Cost/Value Reconciliation
• Liaising with and advise on all financial aspects of contracts, ensuring that valuations are maximised, certified and paid on time
• Monitoring progress on site and take a lead issuing required notices in accordance with contract procedures and timescales
• Prepare forecasts of cost and value of all trades including Preliminaries, monitor and report on same
• Preparing Preliminaries budgets in association with contract staff, monitor and report on same
• Ensure that all quotations are carefully vetted and comply with the specification ensuring that the most competitive bids are obtained

• Assisting the Operations Team, as required, securing labour, materials and Sub-contractors to ensure that contracts are completed on time and within budget
• Ensuring work is carried out in accordance with the Company’s Health and Safety Policy & Quality Manual
About you
You’ll already be qualified and experienced in this field, and you’ll have a background in managing budgets and delivering similar services to a high standard. Have demonstrable Quantity Surveying experience within a relevant sector in the construction industry.
Just as important are strong communication, sales and negotiation skills, an analytical approach, and a genuine ability to set realistic objectives and solve key problems.
What's in it for me:
Working the Robertson Way
Joining us isn’t just about seeing things our way. It’s also about working the Robertson Way too, by bringing our 5 guiding principles to life. Here’s what that means…
We listen
Listening enables us to work positively and collaboratively, and gives customers, partners and colleagues the assurance that their voices are always heard.
We are professional
Our mix of prudence and diligence, care and attention to detail means that our customers have certainty and assurance in everything we do and trust us to deliver.
We take responsibility
Each of us is accountable for what we do. From the smallest detail to team safety and caring for our communities and the environment, we know that everything matters.
We are determined to succeed
Every challenge is an opportunity. We work collaboratively and focus on safety, productivity and quality to find solutions we can be proud of and that provide a positive, lasting benefit.
We are one team
We work as one - in our teams and partnerships, and with our customers. We respect each contribution, and everyone stands up to be counted. We are Team Robertson.
In return, we offer a wide range of rewards and benefits, including 33 days annual leave, a great pension and valuable life assurance. What’s more, you’ll also be able to make the most of a range of brilliant extras. These include our Cycle to Work Scheme, discounts at restaurants and cinemas with a Taste Card, annual flu vaccine, and Health & Wellbeing and Life Management Support for you and your family.
We also have a brilliant smarter working policy, too. That means many of our office-based people and some of our site-based people are able to either work from home or as part of our hybrid model.
When it comes to diversity and inclusion, we see things differently at Robertson. That’s why we’re working hard to create an environment where everyone can feel welcome, and where we can all be ourselves. We encourage applications from people of all races, ages, genders, religions, sexual orientations and more - so whoever you are, we hope you’ll see things our way, too.

If you’ve got what it takes to look at things differently, to find new perspectives, and to discover the extraordinary within the ordinary, we’d love to meet you. To apply for this role and to start seeing things our way, submit your CV on our careers site
This role will be subject to pre-employment screening, including references. The level of screening may vary depending on role responsibilities and will be discussed at interview.
Successful candidates will be required to undergo an adverse financial check and DBS/Disclosure, full details of which will be discussed at interview.
