Quantity Surveyor / Senior Quantity Surveyor x 2 (Reactive & Voids / MOD Works) – £50,000 - £75,000 - Colchester – Main Contractor - Permanent There’s something quietly satisfying about being part of a business that gets it right - where systems run smoothly, promises are kept, and everyone from the directors to the delivery teams genuinely cares about doing good work. That’s the environment you’d be joining here. A forward-thinking main contractor delivering refurbishment, maintenance, and improvement projects across the South - with a big focus right now on MOD estates. We’re looking for two Quantity Surveyors to join their team in the Colchester area. You will spend most of your time office based but with regular visits to sites across the southern region - keeping close to the projects you’re shaping. The work is largely reactive maintenance and void refurbishments, so experience in that space is essential. If you’ve previously worked on MOD frameworks or have existing security clearance (DBS and SC), that’s a real bonus. The business has grown by sticking to simple principles - collaboration, accountability, and doing what’s right for clients and communities. They’re not chasing headlines; they’re building a reputation. And it’s working. If you’re looking for a role where your work actually has an impact - where your accuracy, communication, and commercial instincts are valued - this is it. You’ll need to be someone who thrives on variety, enjoys a team that’s supportive but expects high standards, and appreciates the satisfaction of seeing things done properly. Location: Colchester, with travel across the southern region Security: Basic DBS and SC clearance required or obtainable If that sounds like the kind of setup you’d enjoy - let’s have a chat. Apply now or contact Ricki @ Rework for more information.
