Job Description: Post-Contract Quantity Surveyor

Are you a cost management specialist who excels in the high-stakes environment of active construction sites? AECOM , a global leader in infrastructure consulting, is seeking a Post-Contract Quantity Surveyor to join our world-class Cost Consultancy team in Dubai.

• Valuations & Progress Claims: Rigorously assess contractor progress claims and prepare interim valuations for payment, ensuring accuracy and project alignment.

• Variation Orders: Evaluate, negotiate, and manage change orders and variations, protecting the client from unnecessary costs while ensuring fair compensation for additional work.

• Financial Reporting: Prepare regular cost reports, cash flow forecasts, and anticipated final account statements to provide stakeholders with clear financial visibility.

• Risk Mitigation: Identify potential commercial risks early in the post-contract phase and implement strategies to minimize financial exposure.

• Final Accounts: Manage the complex process of settling final accounts, ensuring all contractual obligations are met and disputes are resolved efficiently.

Requirements & Qualifications

• Education: Bachelor’s degree in Quantity Surveying , Construction Economics, or a related field.

• Experience: Significant experience in post-contract cost management , specifically within the Middle East’s residential and commercial sectors.

• Chartered Status: RICS (Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors) membership or equivalent is highly preferred.

• Technical Skills: Proficiency in industry-standard software (such as CostX or Candy) and a deep understanding of FIDIC contracts.

• Soft Skills: Exceptional negotiation, analytical, and communication skills for collaborating with developers, contractors, and internal project leads.
