The Council is looking to recruit dynamic, client focused, personable and technically strong Assistant Building Surveyors with good people, design, project and contract management experience. You will be part of a growing team of building and quantity surveyors within both the Low-rise and High-rise teams within Housing and Homelessness.

You should be degree qualified in a relevant construction related technical subject and be working towards an associate or full membership of a related professional body such as CIOB, RICS or similar.

It is expected you will have post qualification experience in building surveying and/or project/contract management.

You should have good communication skills both written and verbally and be able to present well as a representative of the Council.

We're committed to creating a workplace culture where all our people feel valued, included and able to be their best at work, and we recognise the benefits that a diverse workforce with different values, beliefs, experience, and backgrounds brings to us as an organisation.

As part of our goal to improve our organisational culture and create a great place to work together for the people of Edinburgh, we want to make sure that we're bringing the best people into our roles, not just in their skills and experience but also in their approach to work.

To help achieve this, we're changing the way we interview and assess candidates by moving from a competency-based interview approach to a behavioural and technical (skills for the job) based approach. This new way of interviewing will allow us to assess how you think and how you would bring Our Behaviours of Respect, Integrity and Flexibility into your ways of working.

You can find out more on Our Behaviours web page Our Behaviours - The City of Edinburgh Council

Our salary range typically reflects the initial starting salary and annually increases until it reaches the top of the range.

Happy to talk flexible working.
