We are currently supporting a major FPSO / offshore construction project in Singapore with a reputable EPC company, and I would like to connect with experienced Quantity Surveyors who may be open to exploring a new opportunity.
This is a yard-based EPC role, and the selected candidate will be working closely with the construction, subcontract, commercial, cost control, planning, and project teams at Seatrium Megayard. The role is suitable for candidates who have strong hands-on experience in quantity surveying, measurement, cost control, contract administration, progress verification, variation claims, subcontractor management, and commercial support within FPSO, offshore, marine, shipyard, EPC, construction, or oil and gas project environments.
The Quantity Surveyor will be responsible for supporting the Subcontract Engineer in managing construction contract costs by preparing accurate measurement reports, providing quantity-based progress updates, reviewing subcontractor variation order requests, supporting estimation activities, assisting in the development of variation order requests, and preparing tender-related documentation where required.
Accurate and timely data entry will be important for this role, as it will support project reporting, earned progress tracking, and the approval process for construction-related claims and commitments.
We are preferably looking for candidates who have been involved in FPSO or offshore construction projects, ideally from the construction phase through to mechanical completion, handover, or close-out. Candidates with good exposure to shipyard construction activities, subcontractor claims, progress verification, remeasurement, site instructions, and project commercial reporting will be highly considered.
