Senior Quantity Surveyor - Cambridge (site based) Kentish Town (HQ)
Would you like to join one of the UK's Best Big Companies as awarded by Best Companies? Murphy Technical Services (MTS) is growing, and we are seeking the right calibre of commercial resource to support this. MTS sits within the multidisciplined Specialist Businesses Unit of J Murphy & Sons. This includes building, ground engineering, electrical services, utility connections, design and engineering, alongside the specialisms of the wider business; this role focuses on mechanical and electrical services, required initially as part of a new build train station, and then beyond.

The business unit provides ideal opportunities for those wishing to take on more responsibility and operate at a business level rather than simply one project; as a commercial team we are delivery focussed, whilst maintaining the Murphy family feel.
Reporting into the Commercial Manager leading the portfolio, the right individual will commercially lead the Mechanical, Electrical, Plumbing, and Fire Protection systems (MEPH) work package for Cambridge South Station. This role would be good for anyone looking for a new and exciting challenge and for anyone looking to gain exposure and experience to all aspects of commercial delivery within a project from start to finish, working closely alongside their operational counterparts.
