Project Surveyor (12-Month FTC)

Your new company

You’ll be joining a highly regarded organisation responsible for managing a unique and historic estate across Gloucestershire. Known for its supportive culture and excellent working environment, the organisation offers the rare opportunity to work on a diverse portfolio of heritage assets, where preservation, sustainability, and quality delivery are at the centre of everything they do.

Your new role

As an Interim Project Surveyor (12 Month FTC), you’ll play a key role in delivering a £1m programme of backlog estates projects across a number of live sites. This is a varied, site-based role with a strong focus on heritage building works, including roofing, windows, gutters, and wider restoration projects.


You’ll take ownership of projects from procurement through to delivery, managing NEC4 contracts, overseeing contractors on-site, and coordinating logistics across a complex estate. With projects ranging from asbestos-impacted roofing replacement on the main office to restoration works on residential and heritage buildings, this is an opportunity to work on technically interesting and meaningful schemes.


Alongside project delivery, you’ll engage closely with stakeholders, consultants, and specialists (including ecology and heritage experts), ensuring works are carried out sensitively and in line with compliance requirements


What you'll need to succeed

  • Experience in a Building Surveying, Estates, or Facilities role

  • Strong background delivering building fabric and roofing projects

  • Experience managing contractors and overseeing site-based works

  • Knowledge of procurement, budgeting, and programme management

  • Familiarity with NEC4 contracts

  • Ability to diagnose defects and specify remedial works

  • Strong communication and stakeholder management skills

  • A hands-on approach and willingness to be on-site across Gloucestershire


Desirable:

  • Experience working with heritage or listed buildings

  • Understanding of environmental or ecological constraints

What you'll get in return

  • The chance to work on a genuinely interesting and varied portfolio of heritage projects

  • A healthy work-life balance with a standard 37-hour working week

  • A supportive and collaborative team environment

  • Competitive day rate of up to £45/hour DOE

  • Potential to transition into a permanent role and build a long-term pension

  • The satisfaction of delivering impactful projects that preserve and enhance historic buildings
