Getting Quantity Surveyor Jobs

A good quantity surveyor is someone who is able to accurately cost a job whilst actively seeking to minimise costs, whilst keeping quality high. Without good quantity surveyors a construction company could struggle and ultimately fail and this means that there is a lot of competition for quantity surveyor jobs.

Getting the Job

In order to be a quantity surveyor you will need to hold a degree on civil or structural engineering, economics, or any other degree which has strong links with the role. Once you have a good degree in the right subject, you will probably find that you will need to start at the bottom and work your way up to the coveted role of quantity surveyor.

It is still extremely difficult to get work as a quantity surveyor as companies want to be absolutely sure that they choose the most able and qualified candidate for the job.
