Candidate profile: A quantity surveyor with major-project experience wanted to leave a cycle of short-term site assignments and find an employer with safer planning, clearer progression and a credible sustainability agenda.

Challenge

The candidate’s technical record was strong, but their employment history looked fragmented because several projects had ended abruptly. They needed to explain those moves confidently and identify employers whose culture matched the way they wanted to work.

Solution

Erdobar developed a transparent career narrative, highlighted commercial-control achievements and screened opportunities for programme stability, leadership quality and environmental commitments. We introduced the candidate to an infrastructure group delivering long-term rail and energy projects rather than short-cycle construction packages.

Result

The candidate joined as Senior Quantity Surveyor with a defined path to Commercial Manager. Within nine months, they led cost control on a complex civils package and were selected for the company’s leadership-development programme.
