The Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade is launching a recruitment campaign for the purpose of recommending persons for appointment to the position of Senior Quantity Surveyor Grade I in the Department.
The post of Senior Quantity Surveyor Grade I is a full-time position, based in Dublin or Limerick reporting to the Director of Property Development. The successful candidate will be required to advise on matters relating to procurement and cost control of building projects and monitor work programmes through inception, procurement and delivery. Candidates should note that as the role will involve management of projects overseas, a willingness to travel, occasionally at short notice, is important.
For further information, (including details on how to apply) please see the Information Booklet.
The closing date for completed applications is 13th April 2026 at 12 noon. Late applications cannot be accepted.
NOTE: Qualifications/eligibility may not be verified by the Department until the final stage of the process. Therefore, those candidates who do not possess the eligibility requirements, and proceed with their application, are putting themselves to unnecessary effort/expense and will not be offered a position from this campaign.
This course will prepare you for a career in the construction industry, whether you want to work as a quantity surveyor and economic advisor or manager or as building development co-ordinator and manager. Quantity surveyors are engaged in private practice as partners or employees in professional firms.
