Junior Quantity Surveyor – MTC Projects (Newry & Mourne)

Your new company

You will be joining a well‑established construction and maintenance contractor delivering long‑term Measured Term Contracts across the Newry & Mourne area. The organisation has a strong reputation for reliability, quality, and client-focused service, providing a stable pipeline of work and excellent opportunities for professional development. With continued growth across its maintenance and minor works portfolio, the company is now seeking a Junior Quantity Surveyor to support its commercial operations.

Your new role

As a Junior Quantity Surveyor, you will play a key role in supporting the commercial delivery of MTC projects, working closely with senior QS staff, contract managers, and operational teams. This role offers hands‑on exposure to the full commercial cycle within a fast‑paced maintenance environment.
Your responsibilities will include:

  • Assisting with measurement, pricing, and preparation of schedules of rates
  • Supporting the management of reactive, planned, and minor works projects
  • Preparing valuations, variations, and cost reports
  • Assisting with subcontractor procurement and payment processes
  • Maintaining accurate commercial records and documentation
  • Liaising with clients, site teams, and internal departments to ensure smooth project delivery
  • Ensuring compliance with contract requirements and company procedures
This is an excellent opportunity to gain experience in a structured, repeat‑work environment where commercial accuracy and efficiency are key.

What you'll need to succeed

  • A degree or diploma in Quantity Surveying or a related construction discipline (or currently completing one)
  • Strong numerical and analytical skills
  • Good communication and organisational abilities
  • A proactive approach and willingness to learn
  • Competence in Microsoft Office; experience with SOR‑based contracts is beneficial but not essential
  • Ability to work effectively within a busy, multi‑project environment

What you'll get in return

  • Competitive salary and benefits package
  • Ongoing training, mentoring, and clear progression opportunities
  • Exposure to a wide range of maintenance and minor works projects
  • A supportive team environment with experienced commercial professionals
  • Long‑term career development within a stable and growing organisation
