Graduate MEP Quantity Surveyor - Immediate start
Company Description
Work with Us. Change the World.
At AECOM, we're delivering a better world. Whether improving your commute, keeping the lights on, providing access to clean water, or transforming skylines, our work helps people and communities thrive. We are the world's trusted infrastructure consulting firm, partnering with clients to solve the world's most complex challenges and build legacies for future generations.
We have an immediate graduate opportunity for a Quantity Surveying graduate (0 to 2 years' experience) to join our project cost management team, to help provide construction cost management services to our clients in Ireland and around the world. The role is for AECOM's Dublin office location, however there may be the potential for an alternative Ireland office location for the right candidate.
AECOM provides Cost Management services to Clients in both the public and private sector, and to organisations in all areas of the Construction Industry including:
* Commercial - new build, refurbishment and fit out for major property developers
* Mission Critical - new build and upgrade of data centres, and new build substations
* Healthcare - new build and refurbishment of private and public facilities
* Education establishments including schools and universities
* Residential developments for developers such as Orbit, Waterloo and Bromford Housing
* Infrastructure schemes, including large scale rail, highways and water projects.
Graduates will have the opportunity to work on local projects, as well as to interact with teams based across the UK and potentially further afield. You will also have chance to be involved in all stages of a project; from initial project definition and brief, cost planning, through to procurement, construction and building use.
You will have opportunity to work with a wide variety of clients including some very high-profile names, often working alongside other construction professionals in multi-disciplinary teams. We believe that actually doing the work itself gives the best opportunity to learn, so you can expect to be given responsibility, and will need to be able to work both autonomously and as part of a team, all whilst receiving the guidance and support to allow you to develop.
AECOM have a strong MEP Quantity Surveying team who you will be required to support, providing you with the ideal opportunity to broaden your knowledge on all aspects of a construction project.
