Role Overview
Quantity Surveyors measure, value, and manage the cost of construction work. You’ll prepare bill of quantities, verify contractor measurements, process running bills, and track project costs against budgets. In EPC projects, the QS is the financial gatekeeper — ensuring every rupee spent is accounted for, every measurement is verified, and every variation is documented. Metro deploys QS professionals to projects where clients need independent quantity verification and cost control support.
