About you
You are a Senior Estimator who knows how to put together strong, commercially sound tenders without cutting corners. You understand refurbishment and fit out projects properly, not just from a pricing perspective but from a delivery point of view as well. You can spot risk early, ask the right questions and build estimates that stand up commercially and operationally.
You will already have solid experience working as a Senior Estimator within construction, refurbishment or fit out. Experience across industrial, commercial or educational projects would be highly beneficial, especially within refurbishment environments where programmes, sequencing and live site challenges need careful consideration.
You will be confident pricing from drawings and specifications, analysing subcontractor quotations and preparing commercially competitive tenders. A strong understanding of construction methods, JCT contracts and construction risk is important for this position. You should also be comfortable using Excel and estimating systems, with experience using COINS or similar platforms being an advantage.
Strong communication skills matter here as you will be working closely with commercial teams, operational staff, supply chain partners and senior management. You will lead the estimating process across a range of industrial, commercial and educational refurbishment and fit out projects throughout the UK.
Day to day, you will review tender documentation, prepare detailed cost plans, engage with subcontractors and suppliers, assess project risks and contribute to tender strategy discussions with the leadership team. You will also play a key role in value engineering, identifying opportunities to improve project value without compromising quality or delivery.
Your experience will directly influence which projects the business secures and how they position themselves within the market. You will be joining during an exciting period of growth, giving you the opportunity to make a genuine impact while progressing your own career within a stable and ambitious contractor.
The package includes a salary between £65,000 and £70,000 along with the opportunity to join a growing business with a strong pipeline of work and a supportive leadership team.
