Quantity Surveyor – NL
Description
Job Opening: Quantity Surveyor
Ensure cost clarity and drive project profitability across Europe’s most advanced data-center
builds.
From our headquarters you will keep multi-million-euro data-center
projects financially healthy, travelling about 30 % of the time to sites in the Netherlands,
Germany, and France. Your clear cost reporting and timely warnings help project teams stay
on budget and on schedule.
From pre-project calculations and technical submittals to monthly pay-runs and final account
sign-off, you ensure value for money at every stage. You coordinate purchase orders and
procurement workflows, maintain live work budgets in the ACC cost module, and review
supplier invoices before they hit our ledgers. Side-by-side with Project Managers and the
Project Administrator you turn raw cost data into clear insights, flag risks early, and
negotiate savings that protect both margin and client satisfaction. Regular site visits keep
you close to progress on the ground and help you coach teams on cost-control best practice.
We think this profile is a good fit
Part of our approach is that we prefer not to think in strict categories. We like to keep your
profile as open as possible. Our best estimate is that you will need the following:
• Proven experience—or a strong affinity—with cost control in construction or fit-out
projects.
• A structured, methodical working style and an eye for numerical detail.
• Confidence to chase missing data, challenge discrepancies, and advise on cost-saving
options.
• Proficiency with Excel and modern cost-management systems (ACC, or similar).
• Willingness to travel ca 30% of your time to project sites in NL, DE, and FR.
• A good command of English is required. German, Polish, French or Dutch are a plus but not
required.
• The mindset to grow into a senior QS role, shaping financial strategy across multiple
business units.
