Senior Estimator

Position: Senior Estimator (Permanent)
The Company:

We are working with a growing Regional Building Contractor who have grown consistently over the last few years and take on construction projects valued up to £30 Million for a varied client base which are almost exclusively based in the North West of England.

They are privately owned, profitable and are active in a number of market sectors including; education, healthcare, extra care, leisure, residential, commercial and industrial.

They secure work through a number of key regional procurement frameworks and good relationships with private clients.

This role is based in a small but highly successful Pre-Construction team reporting into a highly experienced Preconstruction Manager.

The Role:

Due to gradual and consistent growth over the last 5 years they are now in a position to recruit a Senior Estimator to their Pre-Construction team.

They are also offering the opportunity to progress into a broader Preconstruction Management role that will be available in 12 months time.

With support from the rest of the precon team and company Directors you will be tasked with generating Cost Plans and building up cost estimates as part of the tender process to help in putting together persuasive bids for construction projects.

They also take on their own developments so you will be asked to provide early stage cost advice and guidance on these schemes too.

You will work closely with the pre-construction manager, another Estimator, the technical, commercial & operational delivery teams.

Working for this growing building contractor you will be valued as a key member of the team.

This contractor provides really good support and training to help you to be successful in your career with a Senior Management team who have joined from a variety of top tier contractors who are keen to pass on their knowledge.

You:

They would like to recruit a Senior Estimator who has experience of pricing building schemes similar to those described above.

You will be IT literate ideally with experience using Conquest (previous experience of using specialist Estimating Software would be very useful but they can also train you on using this).

You will need to be able to commute to their offices so will likely live in the North West of England.

Rewards:

This is a really good time to join an ambitious and growing organisation with excellent and a clearly defined career development plan.

They offer a generous salary package with a variety of benefits including a realistic bonus.

You will be working with a successful contractor who work on varied and technically interesting construction projects surrounded by knowledgeable construction professionals
