Job description

Quantity Surveyor | Oil & Gas & Industrial Projects
Location: Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

Mission: Powering Malaysia’s Industrial Backbone
Are you ready to move beyond standard construction and dive into the high-pressure, high-reward world of Energy and Heavy Industry? Join a premier listed engineering group at the forefront of Malaysia’s industrial evolution. Our Technical Services division is seeking a sharp, commercially-minded Quantity Surveyor to manage the financial heartbeat of critical oil & gas facilities and heavy industrial assets. From massive shutdowns to complex brownfield modifications, you will be the commercial anchor ensuring our projects remain viable, profitable, and precise.

Role: Impact Beyond the Spreadsheet
This is not a desk-only job. You will be deeply embedded in the project lifecycle, supporting engineering, planning, and site execution teams. Your responsibilities will include:

- Financial Guardianship:
- Lead cost tracking, reporting, and cash flow forecasting to keep multi-million ringgit projects on track.

- Contractual Precision:
- Administer complex contracts, manage Bills of Quantities (BOQs), and lead rigorous tender evaluations.

- The "Live Plant" Challenge:
- Navigate the fast-paced commercial realities of shutdowns, turnarounds, and minor CAPEX works within high-stakes, live environments.

- Claim & Variation Mastery:
- Expertly handle Variation Order (VO) submissions, change orders, and contractor claims with a firm but fair hand.

Who You Are
You thrive in environments where "accuracy" is the bare minimum. You understand that in the industrial sector, a minor oversight can have a major impact. Your toolkit includes:

- Industry Pedigree:
- Significant experience within Oil & Gas, Petrochemical, Power, or Heavy Industrial sectors.

- Technical Literacy:
- Proficiency in MEP, piping, mechanical, and E&I scopes.

- Battle-Tested:
- Experience navigating the unique commercial pressures of live plant environments and shutdown/turnaround schedules.

- Commercial Sharpness:
- Solid background in contract administration and a meticulous approach to cost control and claims.

Why Join Us?

- Scale & Stability:
- Join a powerhouse listed engineering group with a robust project pipeline across Malaysia.

- Complexity that Challenges:
- Work on brownfield and live plant projects that require a higher level of strategic thinking than standard greenfield builds.

- Professional Growth:
- Surround yourself with a high-caliber technical team and lead the commercial delivery of energy-shaping projects.

Ready to Step Up?
If you have the technical grit and commercial acumen to manage projects that keep the lights on and the industry moving, we want to hear from you.
