Leading UK infrastructure services firm providing end‑to‑end water, wastewater, telecoms, power and vegetation solutions.
You’ll play a key role in supporting projects that make a real difference in local communities — from keeping the water running to improving essential infrastructure. You’ll collaborate with colleagues across Avove, learning and sharing expertise as part of a team that’s genuinely invested in your growth.
We design, build and maintain the UK’s utilities infrastructure — helping to keep the water running, the lights on, and communities connected. From sustainable engineering to digital innovation, everything we do helps shape a better future.
Our welcoming and collaborative Commercial Team, working on the successful Northumbrian Water account, is looking for a motivated and experienced Senior Quantity Surveyor to join us.
Most importantly, you’re someone who enjoys problem-solving, teamwork, and contributing to shared success. If you’re returning to work, looking to step up into a new challenge, or simply want to work for a company that values flexibility and balance, we’d love to hear from you.
Please note: a full valid driving licence is required for this role.
You’ll bring an HNC or equivalent in Quantity Surveying and have experience managing NEC3 or NEC4 Contracts (target cost, fixed price, or cost reimbursable).
If you’ve taken a career break, are returning to the sector, or want a workplace where you can thrive and be yourself — you’ll feel at home here.
At Avove, you can bring your whole self to work. We’re proud to create an inclusive environment where your voice matters and your ideas help shape the future.
We’re also happy to explore adjusted hours or tailored development plans to support your transition back into the workplace.
We offer full training, mentoring and ongoing professional development, plus the flexibility you need to thrive — both in and out of work.
You’ll be part of a supportive team that values collaboration, communication, and a “can-do” attitude.
This is a full-time, permanent role with hybrid working — balancing home-based work with time in our Durham office.
