About the @one Alliance
The Anglian Water @one Alliance is a totally collaborative organisation made up of nine partner companies (Anglian Water, SWECO, Balfour Beatty, Barhale, Binnies, MMB, MWH Treatment, and Skanska) and an extended supply chain, delivering over half of Anglian Water’s capital investment programme.
We are gearing up for our most exciting and challenging Asset Management Period yet, known as AMP8, this will see us deliver a programme of work larger than we’ve ever delivered before. We’ll be embarking on a new kind of project delivery focusing on nature-based solutions like wetlands and urban drainage schemes.
We are driving change, empowering us to set global benchmarks and build a better environment, with the opportunity to offer enhanced growth and development to our workforce. We’re looking to build on our existing teams with an environment built for career progression.
With such an exciting portfolio of projects planned for AMP8 to keep the water flowing across the region, our ability to manage our work and outperform against our customer’s expectations will come under greater scrutiny.
We need aspiring driven talent to help us achieve our ambitious targets, are you ready to join us as we prepare to deliver the most creative and innovative AMP we have ever seen?
What will you be doing as our new Quantity Surveyor?
As a Quantity Surveyor in the @one Alliance, you’ll act as the commercial conscious to the integrated delivery team, providing commercial support to both the delivery management and on-site delivery teams. Ensuring that operations are carried out to control costs, maximise value, minimise future liabilities and maintain the required standard of quality and safety, you’ll also oversee the full compliance with the Alliance and Anglian Water governance procedures on a consistent basis.
Key responsibilities:

A little bit about your skills, experience and behaviours….
To be considered for this position, you’ll have extensive experience in managing costs. Whilst a Degree (or equivalent) in an engineering/ management/ cost discipline would be beneficial, the passion and desire to pursue a career in Commercial Management is more important.
Showcasing your first-class customer service and leadership skills, you’ll have an in-depth knowledge of construction and safety and be comfortable challenging processes, practices and norms to improve the overall commercial offering to the business.
