This role requires an upfront & proactive approach to the management of change, close liaison with internal colleagues & the need to form strong, open working relationships with clients and colleagues based on trust & integrity. The exciting new role would suit a hands-on individual who is confident in using MS Excel and keen to drill into data and draw logical conclusions from it. A background in quantity surveying would be beneficial, as would any relevant qualification or degree; accreditation by the RICS or a similar professional body would be an additional advantage.
