Job Description:

A Quantum Senior Associate Director job is available based in London. It is suitable for a Senior Consultant already working within quantum disputes or a Senior Quantity Surveyor working with a major contractor on UK projects. Candidates seeking promotion within specialist quantum disputes and aiming to work for a top-tier consultancy are encouraged to apply.
The role requires strong analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills. It involves working on complex construction disputes that are currently being adjudicated, arbitrated, or litigated worldwide.
Responsibilities and Duties
As a Senior Associate Director in the Quantum division, you will collaborate with the London quantum team, including experts in quantum and delay, to develop litigation strategies. Reporting to a Manager who may also be a Lead Testifying Quantum Expert, you will support multiple arbitration and adjudication cases, as well as live project work involving contract administration and distressed project support.
Analyze construction accounts, costs, values, and payments to identify errors or opportunities.
Conduct technical analyses and prepare reports for use in arbitration and adjudication.
Draft sections of quantum expert reports for review by senior experts.
Provide quantum-related advice through reports and presentations.
Desired Skills and Experience
Candidates should have recent experience as a Quantum Consultant, Senior Quantum Consultant, or a Senior Quantity Surveyor with a reputable UK contractor. Key requirements include:
10+ years’ experience in Quantity Surveying or cost control for a reputable contractor or consultancy.
Experience managing construction contracts, assessing claims, and resolving disputes.
Knowledge of key contract forms like NEC3 ECC & PSC, frameworks, and bespoke contracts.
Experience with claims assessment, dispute resolution, and arbitration procedures.
Excellent report writing and communication skills in English.
Proficiency with MS Office, MS Project, Primavera, and similar tools.
Experience managing junior staff and communicating technical material to non-technical audiences.
Qualifications/Educational Requirements
Bachelor’s degree in Quantity Surveying or Commercial Management.
Master’s degree in construction law or related field is highly desirable.
MRICS, MInstCES, or progressing towards Chartership is preferred.

Quantum Computing Recruitment Trends 2025 (UK): What Job Seekers Need To Know About Today’s Hiring Process

Summary: UK quantum computing hiring has shifted from credential‑first screening to capability‑driven evaluation. Employers now value provable contributions across the stack—algorithms & applications, compilation & optimisation, circuit synthesis, control & calibration, hardware characterisation, error mitigation/correction (QEM/QEC), verification/benchmarking, and hybrid HPC/quantum workflows—plus the ability to communicate trade‑offs, costs and feasibility to non‑quantum teams. This guide explains what’s changed, what to expect in interviews and how to prepare—especially for quantum algorithm engineers, quantum software/compilers, experimentalists, quantum control & firmware, cryo/readout engineers, quantum error correction researchers, verification/benchmarking specialists, and quantum‑adjacent product managers. Who this is for: Quantum algorithm/applications engineers, compiler/optimisation engineers, control/firmware engineers, experimental physicists & hardware engineers (superconducting, trapped ion, photonic, spin/neutral atom), cryogenics & RF/microwave, QEC researchers, verification/benchmarking specialists, quantum‑HPC orchestration engineers, and product/BD roles in the UK quantum ecosystem.

Why Quantum Computing Careers in the UK Are Becoming More Multidisciplinary

Quantum computing has long been considered an elite subfield of physics and computer science. But as quantum technologies advance—from fault-tolerant hardware to quantum algorithms and quantum cryptography—they’re moving closer to real applications in finance, materials simulation, optimisation, cryptography and more. As this transition happens, UK quantum computing careers are becoming increasingly multidisciplinary. Quantum systems are no longer just the domain of physicists and quantum software engineers. If quantum technologies are to be trusted, adopted and regulated, professionals must also incorporate expertise in law, ethics, psychology, linguistics & design. In practice, quantum computing projects now intersect with data governance, risk, human interaction, explainability and communication. In this article, we’ll explore why quantum computing careers in the UK are shifting to multidisciplinary roles, how these five supporting fields intersect with quantum work, and what job-seekers & employers should do to keep up in this evolving frontier.

Quantum Computing Team Structures Explained: Who Does What in a Modern Quantum Department

Quantum computing has shifted from lab curiosity to the next frontier of high-impact computing. Across the UK, universities, national labs, start-ups, and established tech and finance firms are building quantum teams to explore algorithms, design hardware, and deliver quantum-ready software. As momentum grows, so does the need for clear, robust team structures. Because quantum R&D spans physics, engineering, computer science, and product, ambiguity about who does what can slow progress, increase risk, and inflate costs. This guide maps the typical roles in a modern quantum computing department, how they collaborate across the research-to-product lifecycle, skills and backgrounds UK employers expect, indicative salary ranges, common pitfalls, and practical ways to structure teams that move fast without breaking science.
