PLEASE DO NOT APPLY USING THE DERBYSHIRE COUNTY COUNCIL WEBSITE, PLEASE SEE DETAILS BELOW.

The Role

An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Building Surveyor to join the Peak District National Park Authority. Working within a small, busy team based in Bakewell, you will play a key role in delivering an ambitious programme of capital projects across one of the most varied and distinctive public sector estates in the country - from North Lees and Warslow Moors to the Monsal, Tissington and High Peak Trails, National Park Centres and operational properties across the Park.

You will take an active role across a varied and ambitious capital programme, contributing your own design thinking to new projects alongside the full range of building surveying work, from condition surveys through to procurement and contract management. With significant capital investment to deliver, there is genuine scope to shape projects that will support the National Park's operational future and generate long-term income. The role offers exceptional breadth across both traditional heritage buildings and modern construction, making it ideal for a chartered surveyor or someone actively working towards MRICS or CIOB. Structured support for chartership is available.

About you

The successful candidate will hold a relevant qualification (RICS, CIOB, degree or HNC) and be able to demonstrate practical experience across a range of building types and construction methods. Strong organisational skills, the ability to manage your own workload and lead projects, and good communication skills are essential.

You will have experience in building surveying and project delivery, strong knowledge of construction and building regulations, and the ability to manage contracts and contractors effectively. You will also possess excellent communication and organisational skills, be proficient in AutoCAD and Microsoft Office, and be able to work independently while managing multiple priorities.

Flexible Working

Flexi-time is offered as standard. We also offer hybrid working (up to 60% homeworking following induction period).

Benefits

A high-quality defined benefit pension scheme (2 years to qualifying period), 26-31 days holiday (plus bank holidays) with the option to purchase more, volunteering leave and free parking at most of our offices. Please check out our Total Reward Brochure to see what else we offer.
