Senior Cost and Payment Follow-up Engineer
MIDROC Consulting Architects and Engineers PLCAbout This Role
This is a senior commercial-control position sitting inside a consulting architecture and engineering firm, not a contractor. That distinction matters: you would be protecting the client's money rather than the builder's margin, which means scrutinising interim payment certificates, verifying quantities against drawings and site reality, and challenging claims before they are approved. It suits an engineer who has moved decisively from site execution into the financial side of construction and is comfortable being the person who slows down a payment when the paperwork does not hold up.
What the Requirements Say About This Role
The eight-year floor with four of those specifically in cost control signals that general civil engineering experience alone will not be treated as equivalent — the employer wants a track record of owning project budgets, not just contributing to them. The pairing of a BSc in either civil engineering or construction technology and management suggests they value someone who understands both how work is built and how it is measured and priced. The emphasis on negotiation and accountability hints at a role where you will regularly face contractors pushing for larger certifications, and where your judgement is expected to hold up under scrutiny from clients and senior management alike.
How to Approach This Application
Lead with the scale and value of the projects whose budgets you have controlled, and be specific about the mechanisms you used — payment certification workflows, variation order reviews, cost variance reporting. Because this is a consulting firm under a large investment group, demonstrate familiarity with FIDIC-style contract administration and client-side reporting if you have it. Your renewed professional license should be visible early in the application, as it is a hard gate rather than a nice-to-have.
Who This Role Suits
Best suited to a mid-to-senior quantity-surveying-inclined civil engineer with genuine client-side cost control experience; expect a competitive pool given the single vacancy and the group's reputation, so depth of documented project financial responsibility will be the deciding factor.
