About the Role

We need a driven Quantity Surveyor to join the Macquarie Park Bus Depot project delivery team. You will report on projected costs, undertake cost planning to ensure the project stays within budget and provide regular progress reporting to the key stakeholders.

You'll join a progressive, close-knit team with a strong collaborative culture and a shared focus on delivering outstanding project outcomes.

With a strong pipeline of projects on the cards for the Region, this is a perfect time to join a business that will support your career aspirations within a team that delivers high-quality outcomes.
