Surveyor/Senior Surveyor - Valuation - Excel/Financial Modelling

My client, a market leading consultancy is looking to add 2 surveyors to their valuation team. 1 is focused on commercial/residential Red Book Valuation and the other is focused on Excel and financial modelling.

The art & science of valuations have perhaps always led to different solutions, my client is finding these different approaches are becoming ever more entwined as they seek, and then strive to deliver, answers that simply can’t be found in a textbook.

With expanding data sources available and rapidly improving technology enabling greater interpretation and analysis of information, as well as increasingly complex valuation models, my client is looking for individuals who want to join them on their journey of pushing valuation boundaries and matching their client’s needs with their ability to perform ahead of what they would describe as a ‘traditional valuation surveyor’. You will need good Excel and financial modelling skills to perform at the desired level.

The roles present an exciting opportunity to join one of the UK’s top valuation practices and advise a variety of UK and international clients on an extensive range of asset types, from major mixed-use regeneration projects to trophy office buildings, from sports stadia to hospitals. The service lines offered are also diverse, and include valuation, lease advisory and strategic real estate (including preparing business cases).

Their clients include leading property companies, banks, debt funds, developers, Local Authorities, government departments, the NHS, infrastructure providers and football clubs.
