Quantity Surveyor

I'm working with a well-established civil engineering contractor with a strong regional presence and a growing pipeline of infrastructure and earthworks projects. They're looking to appoint an Estimator to support their expanding pre-construction function.

This role will involve preparing detailed cost estimates across a range of civils schemes, reviewing drawings and specifications, and building robust first-principles pricing models. You'll manage tenders from initial enquiry through to submission, obtaining and analysing subcontractor and supplier quotations to ensure commercially competitive bids.

You'll need previous estimating experience within civil engineering, groundworks, infrastructure or heavy construction, alongside strong analytical skills and advanced Excel capability. A good understanding of plant, labour outputs and key cost drivers within bulk earthworks or remediation projects would be highly beneficial.

In return, you'll be joining a stable and forward-thinking contractor offering long-term security, a supportive team environment, and genuine opportunity for progression as the business continues to grow.
