The programme is circa 2 years in duration, offering long-term project exposure from delivery through to completion.

This is a career-defining opportunity to work on a flagship renewable energy infrastructure scheme with real complexity and scale.

  • Contract administration and commercial management under NEC4 ECC

  • Managing change control, compensation events, valuations and reporting

  • Working closely with project delivery teams and client stakeholders

  • Supporting risk management and commercial strategy

  • Ensuring contractual compliance across the lifecycle of the project

Requirements

  • Executive / Senior-level QS with 7+ years' experience

  • Strong background in infrastructure

  • Power / HV / Transmission experience preferred

    or heavy civil engineering experience

  • Must be fully NEC4 ECC literate

  • FIDIC experience advantageous

  • Comfortable working 3 days per week in Exeter (travel paid)

  • Happy to be Bristol office-based long term

What's on Offer

  • £65,000 - £75,000 salary

  • Travel expenses covered for Exeter site days

  • Flexible hybrid working (1-2 days from home)

  • High-profile renewable energy project exposure

  • Long-term career stability within a respected consultancy

  • Clear progression at Executive level


If you're an experienced Exec QS looking to step into a major renewable infrastructure scheme with a consultancy that is thriving and well-respected in the market, I'd be delighted to discuss this further.
