• Assist in preparing specifications, tender documentation and contractor procurement
• Support Building Safety Act related work, including inspections and data collection
• Assist with reinstatement cost assessments and pre-acquisition surveys
• Contribute to dilapidations, project monitoring and compliance-related instructions
• Build strong working relationships with internal teams and external clients

WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE

You’ll be successful in this role if:

• You are developing strong technical knowledge and professional judgement
• You take ownership of your work and deliver to a high standard
• You build trusted relationships with colleagues, clients and contractors
• You contribute effectively across a range of instructions and projects
• You are progressing confidently through your APC pathway

HOW YOU’LL SPEND MOST OF YOUR TIME

• Undertaking site inspections and gathering building data
• Supporting the preparation of technical reports and surveys
• Working on live projects alongside senior surveyors
• Assisting with contract administration and project delivery
• Supporting compliance and building safety-related work
• Logging experience and competencies aligned to your APC

You’ll work in a hybrid way, balancing home working, site inspections and office collaboration, with flexibility and trust built in from the outset

YOUR PATHWAY TO MRICS AT SRVO

• Dedicated MRICS-qualified supervisors and counsellors
• Structured mentoring and regular progress reviews
• Support with competency selection, case study preparation and ethics
• Paid professional fees, exams and resits
• Protected time for APC-related development and CPD

For most candidates, this typically results in chartership within 12-24 months, depending on experience and engagement.

Beyond MRICS, there are clear routes into senior technical roles, project leadership or broader advisory positions.
