About Technica Ltd

Technica is an independent engineering and construction company solving complex challenges for the UK and international energy sectors. We deliver turnkey, multi-disciplinary projects — from design through to build — with control, confidence and care.

Our ‘Why’:

“Technica believe in long-term relationships. We want our clients to have total trust that we’ll deliver excellence in our solutions to their engineering problems.”

We’re entering a bold new chapter, underpinned by a 5-Year growth strategy that will see Technica evolve, expand and play a leading role in the energy transition. We’re looking for people who want to build something meaningful — for themselves, our clients, and our sector.

Why this role matters

We’re hiring a Quantity Surveyor to take commercial ownership of key infrastructure and construction projects delivered under NEC and JCT contracts. But this role is about more than managing costs — it’s about ensuring projects are commercially sound, contractually compliant, and set up for successful delivery.

You’ll work closely with Engineering, Construction, and Project Management teams, helping to create financial clarity, manage risk, and support confident decision-making throughout the project lifecycle.

This role is ideal for someone who:

  • Thrives on taking full commercial responsibility for multiple live projects
    • Understands how strong financial control supports successful, stress-free project delivery
    • Is comfortable working across NEC and JCT contracts in complex project environments
    • Enjoys working side-by-side with delivery teams to keep projects efficient and on track
    • Is confident managing procurement and building effective relationships with subcontractors and suppliers
    • Takes pride in supporting and developing others as part of a collaborative commercial team

How you’ll contribute

You’ll be responsible for the end-to-end commercial management of multiple projects, working across NEC and JCT contracts and supporting teams from pre-construction through to final account.

You’ll:

  • Take full commercial responsibility for construction and infrastructure projects, managing cost plans, budgets, forecasts, and cost-to-complete assessments
  • Prepare, manage, and analyse cost plans, valuations, and final accounts, including interim valuations and contract administration
  • Procure subcontractors and suppliers, preparing tender packages, analysing returns, and negotiating appointments and contracts
  • Manage project budgets, monitor expenditure, and produce accurate monthly CVRs, cashflows, and commercial summaries
  • Identify, value, agree, and control variations and change processes, ensuring accurate and timely submissions
  • Prepare and present commercial reports to directors and key stakeholders
  • Work closely with Engineering, Construction, Project Management, and internal teams to drive cost efficiency and project success
  • Build and maintain strong working relationships with clients, consultants, subcontractors, and supply chain partners
  • Assist the Pre-Construction team with cost planning, tender support, and commercial input to project proposals
  • Identify, assess, and help mitigate commercial and contractual risks
  • Mentor and support junior members of the commercial team where required

What you’ll bring

 Essentials

  • Proven experience working as a Quantity Surveyor (8+ Years)
  • Strong working knowledge of NEC and JCT contracts and commercial processes
  • Excellent understanding of construction methods, procurement routes, and cost drivers
  • Ability to interpret drawings, specifications, and technical documentation
  • Experience managing budgets, forecasts, valuations, and final accounts
  • Confident communicator, able to engage clients and senior stakeholders
  • Experience supporting pre-construction and tendering activities
  • Highly organised, with strong attention to detail across multiple projects
  • Proficient in Excel, Word, and Windows OS
  • UK Drivers License

Desirables:

  • Familiarity with E, C & I projects (beneficial but not essential)
  • Experience mentoring junior team members
  • MRICS status (preferred but not essential)
  • Experience using SAGE software

What you’ll get

  • £69,000–£88,000 salary, based on experience
  • 25 days holiday + bank holidays
  • Private healthcare (plus family options)
  • Company pension
  • Death in Service & Critical Illness cover
  • Work from anywhere in the UK
  • Recognition scheme & genuine commitment to your development
