THE OPPORTUNITY
As a Cost Manager in Quantum, you will be the link to clients, project teams as well as contractors.
You’ll take part in the development of projects, ensuring the cost controls are implemented, and delivered in a timely and professional manner whilst simultaneously maintaining coordination between the client and other relevant partners.
Among other things you will be expected to:
- Prepare cost analysis based on drawings, engineering estimates, materials, and labor.
- Develop cost plans to guide design teams and liaise with architects, engineers, and contractors.
- Prepare tender and contract documents, including bills of quantities.
- Evaluate and negotiate tenders from contractors and subcontractors.
- Monitor project progress and manage budget control, including measuring and valuing variations, interim payments, and final accounts.
- Collaborate with the team to meet client requirements and deliver successful projects.
- Conduct monthly valuations, forecast final costs and sales, and provide advice on commercial and contractual matters.
- Commercial vetting of contractor tenders and contracts.
- Certification of contractor monthly valuations and final accounts.
- Communicate regularly with project staff and specialist subcontractors to ensure commercial controls are in place, understood and followed at all times.
- Produce accurate reports and monitor all commercial aspects of the project, ensuring adherence to budgets.
Your days will vary between desktop work, virtual meetings and in-person interactions, while you also from time to time will need to travel to meet the clients or contractors in person and construction sites where relevant. Since the projects we manage are different by nature, your regular working day will be different as well.
LOCATION
You will be based at our office alongside the rest of Quantum’s team, with occasional time spent at the client’s office. Here, you’ll find a supportive environment with no micromanagement, plenty of opportunities for growth, and the freedom to reach your full potential.
