About Us

QS Planet was created to address the need for a dedicated online Jobs Board for Quantity Surveyors. We identified the fact that they needed one place to visit and be able to directly link up with employers and see what is available in the market both locally and globally, without having to use agencies as middle men.

We also needed to provide a platform for employers to connect with candidates directly in order to speed up the recruitment process in this increasingly dynamic and fast-moving environment. This means employers recruit effectively from anywhere in the world as well as on their doorstep, without having to compete with agencies and pay high agency placement fees.

QS Planet also provides a full recruitment facility for those clients wishing to outsource the entire process or seeking to actively head hunt for specific high level, or challenging, positions. Read more about our outsourced recruitment service.
