• Operating in accordance with the commercial requirements of the projects (costs and programme).

• A #DifferenceMaker outlook we’re transforming society together in everything we do.
• Strong technical knowledge and a creative problem-solving mindset.
• A proactive approach to client relationships and delivering outstanding service.
• RICS, CABE, CIOB or similar accreditation.

Working for Sweco Building Control you’ll experience an inclusive, friendly and flexible working environment where colleagues are encouraged to grow and develop together. A meaningful career where you’ll help to transform society by being a trusted consultant to our clients.

As the only Building Control body accreditation with an ISO 17020, in relation to impartiality, you'll work to maintain the highest standards alongside a team of innovators in a variety of projects, with regular training and bitesized learning opportunities.

We're committed to enabling all our colleagues to achieve a great balance between work and their other priorities, such as caring responsibilities, leisure activities, further learning or other interests. We offer flexible and hybrid working, to ensure we have a healthy work/life balance, and ask our employees to have an office or site presence on an average of three days a week.

If you believe you have the skill set required, are keen to join a business with genuine opportunities for career progression, then we’d love to hear from you.
