About Cost Managers

A Cost Manager is usually a position in a construction consultancy or client side company. Cost Managers provide commercial and cost consulting services for their clients from different sectors, ensuring the well financial and commercial management of clients’ projects. Typically a Cost Manager will report to a Senior Cost Manager/ Associate Cost Manager.

The career path of a Cost Manager can begin as a trainee or graduate level, and progress to a management role on site or at head office running the cost and contracts function for multiple projects worth millions of pounds each. The responsibility of a Cost Manager will be assisting the cost/ contract management team and to take full responsibility for the cost projection and control functions, such as preparing cost plans, providing cost advice and carry out post contract cost control.

Proven Cost Managers who have successfully completed projects from start to finish will be in demand for job vacancies on some of the world's most interesting and challenging projects in places such as London, Dubai and Hong Kong.

The Recruitment Consultants at Maxim Recruitment have been filling Cost Manager vacancies in the UK and overseas since 2003 and would be happy to read an updated CV and offer some expert career advice.

About Canada

Construction workers are very much in demand in Canada. This vast country is home to construction influences from both Europe and the USA, making Canada a rich and diversified country to work and live in.

Canadian infrastructure is always being newly built, upgraded and extended, with cold weather taken into account. Job vacancies in the management levels are particularly high and with a 2.5% annual growth rate, construction jobs are on the increase.

In most of Canada’s major cities English is the official language. The notable exception is Quebec City where French is the official and most widely spoken language, as is the Quebec Province. Native languages are also spoken, but rarely in the construction industry. A speaker of French and English is highly advantageous to working in the Quebec Province, although most inhabitants are bilingual.  

Living and working in Canada gives the best of both worlds. A highly organised and efficient construction industry coupled with everything city life has to offer. And for those who love the ‘great outdoors’ an almost infinite expanse of countryside, with its beautiful forests, lakes and wildlife.
