Contractor or client side
Pick the right kind of QS
Contractor's quantity surveyors manage subcontract packages, valuations and the commercial position for a main contractor or specialist. Client-side (PQS) surveyors protect a client's budget, value work and certify payments.
Look at the forms of contract they have worked under, such as NEC or JCT, and the sectors and project values on their profile.
