Kitchen fitting with out of plumb walls

Can’t see any mention of a professional kitchen fitter or any evidence of one in the photo.You make a lot of assumptions.
Yes.

I was assuming that
we are having a kitchen fitted, all bespoke.
meant that the OP did not pay for a bespoke kitchen to be made and then got an amateur to install it FOC.

Now that I think about it again I realise

People often use Bespoke without understanding its meaning.
 
...neither are truly level, how would he go about making the gap uniform along the edge without compromising something further down the line?
You don't/can't. The units must have plumb ends, the tops must be level front to back and side to side, ideally checked with a long spirit level end to end of the units as well (this highlights any minor sag in the tops of the cabs far better than any laser line can - a string line can do the same but TBH is a bit of a faff to use in kitchens). If the walls are out then your scribe strips should cover this. You cannot line up the units with the walls, but you can overboard/dot and dab with boards to correct wonky wall make it line up to the kitchen (something I have found necessary on a few occasions). A professional fitter should know this...
