The Development & BTR Valuation team in JLL’s UK Living Advisory business needs a Senior Surveyor in a replacement role to focus on residential development and Build to Rent assets.  Busy, successful, and highly regarded in their market, the team needs a skilled valuer who can learn quickly to take responsibility for residential development, investment and BTR valuations.
