Senior Estimator

Senior Estimator
Location: North West London (office based)

Are you confident pricing complex refurbishment schemes where information is incomplete?
Do you understand façades, fire remediation and the realities of working in occupied buildings?
Ready to step into a high-impact senior role with real influence over commercial strategy?

I'm working with a growing contractor delivering technically complex projects across London and the South East. They're looking for a Senior Estimator to take ownership of high-value, high-risk schemes within a regulated environment.

This is not a standard estimating role - you'll be pricing projects driven by compliance, evolving design, and the Building Safety Act. Project types are generally cladding and facade remediation, refurbishment, heritage and HRBs.

What you'll be doing

Leading the full estimating process from feasibility through to tender submission
Producing detailed cost plans, tenders and risk allowances
Interpreting fire strategies, façade remediation scopes and technical methodologies
Building robust pricing models across complex, compliance-led works
Engaging with specialist subcontractors and supply chain partners
Driving commercial strategy, value engineering and risk mitigation
Supporting bid strategy, programme assumptions and delivery planning
What we're looking for

Proven experience as a Senior Estimator within refurbishment, façades or fire remediation
Strong understanding of existing buildings and compliance-led construction
Experience pricing complex projects with incomplete or evolving design information
Commercially sharp with confident decision-making ability
Exposure to Building Safety Regulator processes or HRBs (desirable, not essential)
What's on offer

Salary up to £100,000 depending on experience
Structured development into BSR and HRB environments
Exposure to Gateway processes and emerging best practice
Long-term career progression within a growing, specialist contractor
A genuinely challenging role where your input shapes project success
If you're looking to move into a more technical, high-profile estimating role where no two projects are the same, this is worth a conversation.
