Requirements

  • 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. You’ll have obtained or be working towards a 2:2 degree in any subject.

Responsibilities

  • 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.
