About the Opportunity

I am working with an established commercial property organisation in Manchester seeking an experienced Senior Building Surveyor to join its growing Building Consultancy team.

This is an excellent opportunity for a commercially minded surveyor to take ownership of a diverse portfolio of commercial assets, delivering refurbishment, maintenance and capital improvement projects.

The successful candidate will play a key role in shaping long-term asset strategies, managing complex projects and working closely with internal stakeholders and external contractors.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead building surveying projects from inception through to completion, ensuring delivery on time, within budget and to a high standard.
• Manage capital works, planned maintenance programmes and commercial refurbishment projects.
• Deliver CAT A and CAT B refurbishments, building fabric improvements and M&E-related projects.
• Undertake building condition assessments, identify defects and recommend appropriate remedial solutions.
• Support the development and implementation of long-term asset management strategies.
• Provide technical advice on building regulations, compliance, building pathology and sustainability.
• Manage relationships with contractors, consultants and key stakeholders.
• Identify opportunities to improve building performance, operational efficiency and asset value.

The ideal candidate will have:

• A degree in Building Surveying or a related discipline.
• Significant experience within commercial building surveying, property consultancy or asset management.
• Strong knowledge of building pathology, defects, remediation and building regulations.
• Experience delivering refurbishment, capital works and planned maintenance projects.
• Excellent project management, communication and stakeholder engagement skills.
• A commercially focused approach with the ability to manage multiple projects independently.
• An understanding of sustainability and its impact on commercial property.

MRICS qualification would be advantageous, although candidates with strong relevant experience are also encouraged to apply.

What's on Offer?

• Competitive salary of £50,000–£60,000.

• A collaborative environment with experienced property professionals.
• Opportunities for professional development and career progression.
