Employment: Full-time, permanent

Salary: £28,000-£30,000

Start date: As soon as possible / by agreement

About the Role

Our client, a growing property consultancy, is looking for an ambitious Graduate Surveyor to join their team. This is an excellent opportunity for a motivated graduate who wants hands-on exposure to a varied range of surveying work and the chance to develop quickly within a professional consultancy.

You will work alongside experienced Chartered Surveyors and senior colleagues, assisting with property inspections, technical reporting, valuation work, defect investigations and project-related instructions. The role combines office-based work, site inspections and direct contact with clients, contractors and other property professionals.

What You'll Be Doing

• Assist with residential and commercial property inspections and surveys.
• Support the preparation of RICS-style survey reports, defect reports and other technical property advice.
• Assist with property valuations, comparable research and market analysis.
• Undertake measured surveys, photographic schedules and accurate site notes.
• Help senior surveyors with defect diagnosis and recommendations for remedial works.
• Support project work – specifications, schedules of works, tender documentation, site inspections and progress reporting.
• Liaise professionally with clients, agents, contractors, solicitors and other consultants.
• Carry out property and market research and keep clear records of comparable evidence.
• Help prepare fee proposals, quotations, client correspondence and general job administration.
• Maintain accurate electronic project files, inspection records and supporting documentation.
• Manage allocated tasks efficiently and meet agreed reporting deadlines.
• Build technical knowledge of relevant legislation, RICS guidance, building regulations, health and safety and professional standards.

What We're Looking For

Our client wants someone enthusiastic, personable and driven – attitude matters more than previous experience. You'll ideally have:

• A degree in Building Surveying, Real Estate, Property, Construction or another relevant property-related discipline.
• A genuine interest in surveying, property and the built environment.
• Strong written English and the ability to produce clear, accurate and professional reports.
• Confident communication skills and a professional manner with clients and third parties.
• Good attention to detail and a methodical approach to inspections and record keeping.
• Commercial awareness and an interest in property values, construction and market conditions.
• Good organisational skills and the ability to juggle several tasks at once.
• A proactive, positive attitude and the confidence to ask questions, take responsibility and learn quickly.
• A full UK driving licence is essiential, due to the site-based nature of the role.

Training & Career Development

This role is designed to be the foundation for a long-term career in surveying. You'll gain practical experience across a broad range of instructions while working closely with experienced surveyors. Where applicable, the role can support progression towards RICS professional qualification and the APC process.

• Regular exposure to live property inspections and client instructions from an early stage.
• On-the-job mentoring from experienced surveyors and senior leaders.
• Increasing responsibility as your knowledge and confidence grow.
• Experience across surveying, valuation, defects and project work.
• Support with relevant professional development and technical training.

Why Join Our Client

• A varied role with exposure to real projects and client work – not a narrow graduate function.
• A young, dynamic and commercially focused working environment.
• Direct access to senior surveyors and decision-makers.
• A clear opportunity to develop technical skills, client confidence and professional responsibility.
• Progression driven by performance, attitude and capability.
