Graduate Apprentice Quantity Surveyor

What you'll be doing

As an Graduate Apprentice Quantity Surveyor, you'll play a key role in the delivery of major infrastructure projects, helping to create and maintain the structures and systems that communities rely on every day. Working across both site and office environments, you'll gain practical experience while developing a strong understanding of engineering principles, design processes, project delivery, and asset management.

Working alongside experienced engineers and project teams, you'll contribute to activities throughout the project lifecycle, from planning and design through to construction and handover. As part of your apprenticeship, you'll combine academic study with practical experience, developing the technical, analytical, and professional skills needed for a career in civil engineering.

You'll learn how to:

• Support the delivery of civil engineering projects while developing an understanding of engineering principles, standards, and industry best practice
• Review and interpret engineering drawings, specifications, models, and technical information
• Assist with the development of engineering solutions that meet project, customer, and regulatory requirements
• Support site engineering activities, including surveying, setting out, inspections, and quality assurance processes

Alongside your role, you'll attend Glasgow Caledonian University on day release and work towards a Graduate Apprenticeship in BSc Construction and Built Environment (Quantity Surveying).
