Following its transition to an Employee Ownership Trust , the business is continuing to invest heavily in its people and future growth. The estimating function currently consists of 6 Estimators and 2 Trainee Estimators , with the business now looking to strengthen the team further with an experienced Senior Estimator, ideally based in London, although Midlands candidates will also be considered. This is not a high-volume estimating position focused simply on processing subcontractor quotations. As a self-delivery Civil Engineering contractor , the business requires someone with strong first-principles estimating knowledge who understands how projects will actually be constructed and can use that knowledge to develop competitive, commercially considered tenders. You'll work closely with Pre-Construction, Planning, Commercial and Operational teams, taking ownership of significant tenders and helping identify the methodology, risk, opportunity and value engineering that can ultimately turn an estimate into a winning bid. The business takes a selective approach to tendering , rather than pursuing high volumes of opportunities, giving its estimating team the time to properly interrogate and develop each bid. This represents an excellent opportunity for either an established Senior Estimator or an ambitious Estimator ready to step up, with genuine long-term progression available within a growing employee-owned contractor. Senior Estimator Salary & Benefits Salary £90,000 - £130,000 DOE Approximately £5,000 - £6,000 car allowance . Salary-sacrifice electric vehicle scheme available as an alternative. Free EV charging at the office. Discretionary bonus scheme. 6% employer pension contribution , with 5% employee contribution. Private medical healthcare. 26 days' annual leave plus bank holidays.

Build up labour, plant, materials and productivity rates based on proposed construction methodology. Review drawings, specifications, programmes and tender documentation to fully understand project requirements. Assess how projects will practically be constructed, incorporating methodology, logistics and site constraints into the estimate. Identify and evaluate commercial and technical risks and opportunities throughout the tender process. Work closely with Pre-Construction, Planning, Commercial and Operational teams to develop competitive tender strategies. Obtain and interrogate subcontractor and supplier quotations where appropriate. Participate in tender reviews, adjudications and post-tender negotiations. Identify value-engineering opportunities and alternative construction solutions. Develop competitive tenders that go beyond simply producing a price, with a focus on helping the business win the right projects . Work across projects including highways infrastructure, utilities, drainage, groundworks, plot enabling, foundations and earthworks . Contribute to the business's selective bidding strategy, focusing estimating resource on suitable opportunities with a strong prospect of success.
