Candidate Quantity Surveyor

The civils and earthworks contractor in Stellenbosch needs a QS who can price a tender and still defend a final account. If you learn fast and don't mind being shown things twice, you'll settle in within a few weeks.

The site is in Stellenbosch; early starts mean public transport timing matters, so check your route before applying. Shifts rotate, so you'll need to be flexible about days and nights.
