ROLE OVERVIEW
We are looking for a qualified Valuation Surveyor to join Scanlans Consultant Surveyors, undertaking Red Book valuations primarily for secured lending purposes across the West and East Midlands.
This role suits a Chartered Surveyor and RICS Registered Valuer who enjoys producing technically robust, well-written valuations, backed by strong local market knowledge and a professional, client-led approach.
Scanlans is a long-established, partner-led practice where quality matters. You’ll be trusted to manage your own workload, supported by an experienced team, and given the stability of being part of Trinity Property Group and the wider Odevo Group.
You’ll work across a varied range of asset types including industrial, retail, residential, mixed-use, offices and HMOs, offering genuine variety rather than repetitive single-sector work.
ROLE EXPECTATIONS
You will be responsible for undertaking valuations end-to-end, including inspections, analysis and reporting, ensuring compliance with Red Book requirements and lender expectations.
This role requires a high level of accuracy, strong report writing and confidence working independently, balancing inspections, lease analysis and reporting deadlines without compromising quality.
You will work closely with senior colleagues and partners in a supportive environment where standards are high, but the culture remains practical and down-to-earth.

You’ll be successful in this role if:
- Your valuation reports are consistently accurate, compliant and delivered on time
- You apply strong judgement and local market knowledge to your advice
- Your inspection notes, measurements and supporting information are thorough
- You manage your workload effectively and communicate proactively on priorities
- You build strong working relationships with colleagues and clients through reliability and professionalism
HOW YOU’LL SPEND MOST OF YOUR TIME
Most weeks, you’ll be:
- Undertaking site inspections and taking accurate measurements
- Assembling property information and reviewing searches
- Reviewing and analysing occupational leases and their impact on value
- Applying strong local knowledge and awareness of the Midlands property market
- Producing Red Book valuation reports in a timely and consistent manner
- Valuing a range of assets including industrial, retail, residential, mixed-use, offices and HMOs
You’ll work in a flexible way, with a blend of home working and office-based collaboration at Scanlans House in Knowle, alongside regional travel for inspections.

- Is MRICS or FRICS qualified

EXPERIENCE THAT HELPS
