Making that jump… From Developer/Main Contractor to the PQS/Consultancy side
A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away…
A period of relentless heat has hit the country, and the national team has actually won a competitive penalty shootout!
Though the heat is easing up, the construction industry continues to thrive, and the demand for skilled Quantity Surveyors remains constant.
The Directors of all PQS/Consultancies, obsessed with finding exceptional Quantity Surveyors, have dispatched a bold new plan to combat the skill shortage…
A New Hope: Switching to the PQS/Consultancy Side
I work closely with Quantity Surveying consultancies across the UK every day, and it’s clear that Directors of PQS practices are increasingly open to hiring talented QS professionals with a background in main contracting or development.
So why consider making the switch to the PQS/Consultancy side?
The Benefits of Joining the PQS Side
- Achieve MRICS: PQS firms are more likely to support you through the MRICS qualification process.
- Better Work/Life Balance: Consultancy roles often provide greater flexibility.
- Pace of Work: You may prefer the more structured and collaborative approach within consultancies.
- Faster Career Progression: PQS firms tend to offer clearer and quicker career advancement opportunities.
- Strategic Influence: Working in the office (more often than not) allows you to contribute directly to the growth and direction of the business.
Join the Force
So, use the Force—join the PQS side—and together, we can conquer the Quantity Surveying galaxy.
