In episode 233, Paul welcomes Alice Graham, a chartered Quantity Surveyor turned Solution Specialist at Procore Technologies. Together, they unpack Alice’s career journey — from studying QS at Heriot-Watt University to working in consultancy, and eventually pivoting into construction technology.

Alice shares how her “skills inventory” helped her redefine her path, the case for becoming a visible role model in construction, and why QSs have more career options than they might realise — including tech, entrepreneurship, and even writing books. The conversation also covers:

  • PQS vs. Main Contractor career paths
  • Mid-career pivots for chartered surveyors
  • The growing demand for domain expertise in ConTech
  • How visibility, creativity, and content can shape your influence
  • What the industry must change to retain top talent

This is a must-listen for anyone in Quantity Surveying who is questioning their next step — whether you're climbing the ladder or building a new one.
