We have an opportunity for a Quantity Surveying graduate to work within our project cost management teams, to help provide construction cost management services to our clients in the UK and around the world. AECOM provides Cost Management services to Clients in both the public and private sector, and to organisations in all areas of the Construction Industry including:

Graduates will have the opportunity to work on local projects, as well as to interact with teams based across the UK and potentially further afield .You will also have chance to be involved in all stages of a project; from initial project definition and brief, cost planning, through to procurement, construction and building use.
