Job Location

Job Description
It’s not every job where you make a difference for the people of Scotland. But it’s what’s behind every job here. Our work keeps Scotland’s water flowing, from reservoir to tap – and from sewer to treatment plant. Do your bit by joining our Customer Service Delivery (CSD) commercial team as a Quantity Surveyor . What you’ll do As a Quantity Surveyor, you will provide commercial management in respect to financial, commercial, and contractual matters. This will include analysis and production of commercial and contractual information, preparation of contract documents in accordance with Delivery Partner Agreements, assessment of monthly applications. All in compliance with Scottish Water Commercial Procedures, practices, and policies. In addition you will be required to develop and maintain excellent working relationships with all internal and external stakeholders. What you'll bring You'll need to be a qualified and experienced quantity surveyor, bringing a strong track record of working in this field. Experience of managing projects using standard construction contract forms - particularly NEC3 and NEC4 - is essential, as is the ability to work confidently with numbers and manage information effectively. Strong communication skills are also a must, enabling you to work effectively with colleagues, partners, and stakeholders at all levels. Experience of working within an alliance or partnering arrangement will be highly valuable, as will a collaborative approach to achieving shared goals. A full driving license is also required. Looking out for you While the work we do is important, we know it’s not the only thing that matters. That’s why we make sure you have everything you need to find a good work-life balance. You’ll get plenty of time to recharge with 38 days of holiday every year (including public holidays). And you can even buy five more if you need a little extra time. You can also take paid time off to volunteer in your community. When it comes to major life events we have family-friendly policies around adoption, maternity, and parental leave. And for the everyday? We embrace flexible working. For your future, there’s our pension (the ‘know-what-you’ll-get-when-you-retire’ kind), as well as life assurance. As for some nice extras? You can expect an annual company bonus. Not to mention access to SW Splash – handy rewards that can save you money on holidays, bills, and shopping. The not-so-small print This role will be a Grade 6. If you’re new to Scottish Water, you’ll join us on a starting salary of £36,410. Performance-driven pay progression would then allow you to move through the range to a maximum of £46,990. If you’re interested in this role – or know someone else who might be - we’ll be accepting applications until midnight on Sunday 28th September. Job offers at Scottish Water are conditional, and will be confirmed on completion of our pre-employment screening, e.g. referencing, criminal record checks, license checks, etc. Screening is conducted on our behalf by a third party, and must be completed before your start date. Don’t worry - we’ll only start these checks once you’ve accepted an offer.
