A well-established national property and construction consultancy is seeking a Quantity Surveyor to join its North Sydney team.
With more than 50 years of industry experience, the consultancy has built a strong reputation for delivering independent cost management and advisory services across both public and private sector projects. Offering an even mix of project work, a collaborative team environment and clear career development pathways, this is an excellent opportunity to continue building your career with a respected national consultancy.
Role Overview
This role is suited to a Quantity Surveyor with 2 years' consultancy experience who is looking to take the next step in their career.
You'll work across a diverse portfolio of public and private sector projects, gaining exposure to cost management, project delivery, advisory and strategic asset management services. Working closely with experienced senior professionals, you'll continue developing your technical capability while progressively taking ownership of projects and building strong client relationships.

• Strong understanding of pre-contract and post-contract services
• Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills
• Strong commercial awareness and attention to detail

Why This Role Stands Out

• Continue developing your experience across cost management, project delivery, advisory and strategic asset management
• Learn alongside experienced Quantity Surveyors who are passionate about mentoring and professional development
• Build strong client relationships while progressively taking on greater project responsibility
• Hybrid working, with the flexibility to work from home two days a week
• Join a collaborative national consultancy with a stable pipeline of work and long-standing client relationships
• Clear opportunities to progress into a Senior Quantity Surveyor position
