The Opportunity
An opportunity for an experienced Estimator or Senior Estimator to join a growing construction business with a long and secure pipeline of work.
This role would suit someone commercially minded who is comfortable pricing work end-to-end, engaging with the supply chain, and helping shape future workload. There is flexibility for an Estimator ready to step up, or an established Senior Estimator looking for more influence and less red tape.

Preparing accurate and competitive cost estimates for construction and roofing projects
*
Reviewing drawings, specifications and tender documentation
*
Pricing works properly with a focus on margin, risk and deliverability

Engaging with subcontractors and suppliers to obtain and assess quotations

*
Working closely with the commercial and operational teams

*
Enjoy working in a growing, hands-on business rather than a corporate setup

Be comfortable taking ownership and influencing outcomes
Key Requirements

Strong commercial awareness

*
Comfortable managing multiple tenders and deadlines
