The Opportunity

HeatherDaniel International (HDi), a construction recruitment specialist, is searching for a Project Quantity Surveyor to sit on the developer side in Coconut Grove. You will act as the commercial “Logos” for a high-net-worth developer, protecting their estate against market chaos.

This is a move away from high-volume operations and into strategic executive advisory. Instead of processing a conveyor belt of packages, you will advise at estate level: running full-cycle cost control and contract negotiation, and aligning leadership hiring and procurement with the developer’s capital-deployment goals.

If you have a strong foundational knowledge of the PQS role — and preferably an MRICS background — this is a chance to put that training to work for a high-net-worth developer in Coconut Grove, not on a high-volume operations desk.

Key Responsibilities

  • Strategic advisory: Transition from high-volume operations to strategic executive advisory for a high-net-worth developer, protecting their estate commercially.
  • Cost control: Deliver full-cycle cost control across the developer’s estate, from the first commercial decision through to completed negotiation.
  • Contracts: Lead contract negotiation so that the estate is protected against market chaos.
  • Capital alignment: Align leadership hiring and procurement with capital-deployment goals.

Requirements

  • PQS foundation: Strong foundational knowledge of Project Quantity Surveyor roles.
  • Chartership: An MRICS background is preferred.
  • Location: A developer-side seat in Coconut Grove, Miami.

Compensation & Benefits

  • Package: $125,000 – $145,000.

Why candidates choose HDi

We start with you, not with a requisition to fill. The people we place today are often the clients who hire us tomorrow. That only works if we treat the first conversation with care.

We know what a Quantity Surveyor is. We work in verticals — cost, project advisory, claims and dispute, built-environment leadership, and data center and mission-critical programmes — not as a generalist shop that learns your job from a Wikipedia page.

We are honest about salary and fit, even when the answer is no. We do not mailshot your curriculum vitae. We do not share it without your consent. That promise is written in full on our Candidate Charter.
