Electrical Estimator

I’m currently working with a National M&E Contractor in London who are looking to recruit an additional Intermediate Electrical Estimator into their London team. Looking for someone with experience working within the industry on similar scale projects valued up to £100m M&E across a wide variety of sectors, ideally data centre (DC) experience in the UK and/or Europe – Shell & Core projects up to £20m – DC £50m to £100m projects.

The business has a great culture and environment which has helped with retention of staff over the years with their average duration sitting above the industry average. Boasting a highly competitive package and salary for the right experience, this would be a great time to make contact as this business rarely recruits additional staff within this team. They have also embraced some hybrid working at times (still needing people to live a commutable distance from the office in Central London).

Please see below as a snapshot of the responsibilities and experience required.
