Graduate Building Surveyor
Plenty of Graduate Building Surveyors sit their APC final assessment with a diary full of Level 2 and very little at Level 3. That wouldn't be the case here. A Graduate Building Surveyor joining this Birmingham team gets the complete spread of building surveying work, so the Level 3 experience the RICS asks for comes through day-to-day instructions.
The firm is an established multi-sector consultancy offering a full building consultancy service, with clients from local owners through to national organisations. Workflow has stayed steady and the building surveying department is growing, which is behind this hire. There's a structured RICS graduate support programme in place. The firm expects its graduates to work towards Chartered status and backs them to get there.

- Inspecting buildings and recording condition, defects and likely causes, with support from chartered colleagues
