£23.5 - £27 per hourEstimated

About the role

Our placements last for 12 months, working across both design and construction teams, to offer the broadest exposure to the industry, working on real-world projects that make a difference in communities. It’s a great chance to get involved with live projects while gaining experience relevant to your degree. This role is working for our United Utilities framework, so travel around their region is required.

What you’ll do

  • Working with your senior QS you will manage all aspects of commercial and cost management of a project including paying subcontractors, raising notices, and completing cost to completes.
  • Ensure that proper records, including final accounts, are kept and maintained so financial information for audits and cost assurance is readily available.
  • Develop contract management skills, understanding the New Engineering Contract (NEC) and how change control works.
  • Promote our quality, cost, and efficiency strategy to ensure everyone is minimising costs and maximising value.

What you'll need

  • You must be studying a full-time undergraduate degree in Quantity Surveying, Civil Engineering, or a related field.
  • Keen eye for detail and a commitment to accuracy in all tasks.
  • Ability to communicate effectively with team members and stakeholders.
  • A proactive attitude and eagerness to learn.
  • Valid UK driving licence to travel to sites

What’s in it for you

  • Gain practical experience in your chosen role
  • Work on projects that have a positive impact on the community
  • Mentorship and guidance from experienced professionals
  • 26 days annual leave (pro rata for the duration of your placement)
  • Access to our Early Career Professionals network
  • Plus, if you have a successful placement year you could be offered a permanent role for when you finish your studies, as well as the potential for funding support towards your final academic year.

Here, you’ll build a career with purpose—on projects that make a real difference. And you’ll be part of a team that invests in your future. This role is to start Summer 2027.
