Experienced Quantity Surveyor - Darwin / FIFO Opportunities
 
Huge opportunity for an experienced Quantity Surveyor to join a well-established international construction advisory firm, who are known for delivering major projects across Australia and around the globe.
  
Location:  Darwin-based ideal, as you will be working on N.T. projects; however, we are open to candidates from across Australia, as FIFO arrangements are also available.
  
Salary: Salary is negotiable and above market, to secure someone who brings value to the team.

For context, their recent projects include a landmark Darwin infrastructure project ($500mil), which you could be part of. The role would suit someone from a consultancy or contractor background.
