The role
We are looking for a Building Surveyor to join our growing Energy Consultancy team in Oxford. This role suits a Building Surveyor who is technically strong, increasingly confident managing projects and clients, and ready to take the next step in responsibility while continuing to develop towards Senior level. You will deliver a wide range of professional Building Surveying services alongside specialist work in the energy, utilities and infrastructure sectors, working closely with engineers, project managers and CAD technicians.
We are flexible and open to location of the role, although there will be some UK-wide travel.
