opportunity to achieve accreditation in the field of cost engineering.

Alternatively, BTEC/SCOTVEC, HNC/HND together with relevant experience are also acceptable.
*New entrants will normally attract the minimum of the pay scale, currently £24,725. However, Higher Starting Pay (HSP) has been
approved to a maximum of £27,292. Any offer of HSP will depend on your level of experience and qualifications.
