Brief Description
As a Chartered Quantity Surveyor Apprenticeship, you’ll support the planning and delivery of projects, helping to keep installations organised, efficient, on schedule, ensuring the value of the works is fully captured. You’ll work closely with site teams, suppliers, contractors, and clients, developing valuable industry skills.
Training to be Provided
Alongside your practical training, Lusso will enrol and support you through a 5-year part-time Quantity Surveying degree apprenticeship course with UWE Bristol – Chartered Surveyor Degree Apprenticeship, giving you the opportunity to become a Chartered Surveyor from (RICS) industry recognised qualification while earning and developing your career.
Future Prospects
After your apprenticeship, your career path will largely depend on which side of the construction industry you choose to specialise in:
- The Consultancy Route (PQS): If you work for a professional practice, you will transition toward client-side advisory work. Your progression will move through Associate Director to becoming an Equity Partner in the firm, where you share in company profits.
- The Contractor Route (Main/Sub-contractor): If you work on-site for a builder, your path focusses heavily on strict budget management and supply chain control. This path leads directly into Commercial Management and operations.
- Specialist Niches: With MRICS status, you can easily pivot into high-paying specialist fields like Construction Law & Dispute Resolution, Capital Allowances Tax Advisory, or Infrastructure Project Controls (e.g., HS2, green energy grids).
- The Freelance/Contracting Route: Once you achieve SQS level experience, many chartered surveyors set up their own companies to work on a day-rate basis.
