Degree Apprenticeship – Trainee Quantity Surveyor

Here at Willmott Dixon Interiors, we are currently recruiting for our degree apprenticeship roles on our Management Trainee scheme to start with us in September 2025. We have a vacancy for a Trainee Quantity Surveyor to join our Interiors team who are based opposite the Old Bailey, London (but our construction projects themselves are in London and South East).

As a Trainee Quantity Surveyor your career is all about managing the costs of a project. This will include preparing tender and contract documents, weighing up commercial risks, procuring the best supply chain and managing payments for completed work.

We welcome all applications, but for this role we have an emphasis on candidates with A-Level, BTEC, T-Level and HNC qualifications, along with a passion for a career in construction. Our programme will give you a great foundation; you will get exposure to all areas of our business to develop your understanding of the construction business as a whole, not just your chosen discipline. We will provide you with all the support you require to study for a relevant degree qualification whilst you are gaining valuable, hands on experience on our construction projects.

Our highly regarded management trainee programme has successful been running for over 40 years; many of our past management trainees are now in senior managerial roles or sit on the main board! This is a structured, proven route to a management role in one of the most forward-thinking construction companies in the UK.
