Gaining the opportunity to work with and use Candy pricing software. Refining forecast and P&L models. Preparing weekly and monthly budget/cost reports and participating in budget/cost reviews. Assisting in preparing monthly reports for the CPS Senior Team, including progress updates, fees earned, costs to date, forecasts, and EVM. Operating as a Senior QS on one of the largest road projects in Europe. Who We’re Looking For
Experience in highways works and strong knowledge of road structures, traffic monitoring, signalling, and electronic signage equipment. Proven expertise in both pre-contract and post-contract Quantity Surveying disciplines. Strong negotiation skills with clients, stakeholders, and supply chain partners.
