About Us

A small family firm spreading its wings…Look at our website, it’s us in a nutshell!

Dedicated, professional & client focused but with a healthy blend of fun, work life balance and training added into the mix.

We believe in doing things the right way, every day and every time. 

We get to know our clients and their requirements so we can give the best service possible. It’s as simple as that.

The role

We are looking for an RICS qualified surveyor from either the Residential or Building Surveyor pathway to join us to undertake some or all of the following:

  • Level 2 & 3 surveys
  • Listed building surveys
  •  Snagging inspections/surveys
  • Specific defect reports
  • Party Wall work 

* with no valuation work!

Clear professional communication between yourself, clients and the rest of the team is paramount. 

There is scope for progression within the role.

The pitch

We want a dedicated and diligent surveyor to join us, so we want to make this a great place to work, these are some of the things we bring to the table:

  • A real family business where your voice will be heard. We want you to succeed and will support you in your career.
  • We love our clients and we take time with each and every one of them, our bonus structure is about our client experience not about numbers of jobs completed!
  • Training can be given to help you undertake any of the above types of work if you do not have experience in them yet.
  • Working from home, we believe in a proper work life balance with a flexible diary approach. So if you need the afternoon off to watch your kids school play…take it off and work longer another day. If you prefer to write up reports early morning but head off for a swimming class at 4pm….do it!
  • Office support to book your appointments, manage your diary and even undertake desktop research for you…. The idea is to get you focused on being a surveyor.

The package

Salaried position:

  • Salary in the region of £40-45k p/a with a bonus in addition. However, we will create a package to suit you, and we will consider full time and part time hours.
  • 25 days holiday plus bank holidays annually.
  • Additional day off for your birthday each year.
  • Pension
  • A generous referral bonus for any job you bring in (no pressure to do this though)
  • RICS membership fees paid annually [+ Help achieving MRICS if not already there yet].

  • Fees paid weekly
  • Bonus for excellent customer service

Bonus points:

If you like cows and springer spaniels….told you we’re a different kind of firm! (all will be revealed at interview!)

The small print:

  • You must be a RICS qualified surveyor who is customer focused with an eye for detail. You will need to want to be part of a small business practice where your voice matters but you will also need to take initiative and responsibility for your own actions. It goes without saying you will need to have a “can do attitude” with flexibility in your approach.
  • You need a full UK Driving licence and your own car
  • You need the right to work in the UK
  • You will need to have a DBS check for this role
