Graduate Quantity Surveyor (Also referred to as our Commercial Management Graduate programme)

Location: Multiple

Pay range: Competitive

About us

Established in 1897, and celebrating our 125th anniversary in 2022, the Wates Group is one of the leading privately-owned construction, residential development and property services businesses in the UK. We employ over 3,800 people and work with a wide range of public and private sector customers and partners. We’re committed to the long-term sustainability of the built environment, and aim to eliminate carbon from our operations by 2025. We’re honoured to have recently received a Queen’s Award for Enterprise in the Sustainable Development category, which is a record third win for the company. We’re also committed to increasing the proportion of women at all levels of our business, and broadening the ethnic diversity of our workforce.

About the role

When you join us on the Graduate Quantity Surveyor programme, you’ll develop an understanding of our commercial processes and activities, and be involved with project delivery in relation to profit and risk management. Learning how to value and pay sub-contractors, and prepare and issue payment notices, you’ll also prepare tender and contract documents, and develop an understanding of our professional standards and governance procedures, and how to implement these.

You’ll have wide range of additional responsibilities, including producing and analysing reports to ensure projects are financially viable, and providing contractual, commercial and financial information to your line manager and other functions. We’ll expect you to safeguard Wates’ contractual position in respect of the progress of works, design responsibilities and our legal obligations to sub-contractors, and you’ll build effective working relations with key stakeholders, clients, wider teams and supply chains. You’ll also be involved in forecasting, risk assessment and the monitoring of cashflow, and help to build a bid winning strategy while identifying our customer’s key requirements. On successful completion of the programme, you’ll move into an Assistant Quantity Surveyor role.

About you

To be a success on the programme you’ll enjoy learning new things, have a curious nature, be a superb communicator and you won’t be afraid to ask questions. Organised, reliable and professional, and a problem solver with the ability to think logically, you’ll have the initiative to start and complete tasks. It’s important that you possess good time management skills, and are able to prioritise your work to meet agreed deadlines. With a full UK driving licence, you’ll have obtained or be working towards a 2:2 in a Construction Related Degree and have a grade 4/C in Maths and English GCSE.

Please be aware that you should be willing to commute for up to an hour a day around the location you apply for. This location can change if you’re assigned to a new site, and as Wates don’t support relocation, you should be comfortable that you can meet this requirement.
