Senior Estimator

Reference: wtl4d41nuu3ulzl4u3ue

We are seeking an experienced Senior Estimator to lead the preparation of accurate, competitive, and commercially sound estimates for a varied programme of projects. This role will suit a detail-oriented professional with strong technical understanding, excellent commercial judgement, and the confidence to work collaboratively with clients, suppliers, subcontractors, and internal delivery teams.

You will manage the estimating process from initial enquiry through to tender submission, reviewing drawings, specifications, schedules, and other project documentation to identify scope, risks, opportunities, and resource requirements. Responsibilities will include preparing detailed cost plans, bills of quantities, labour and material calculations, subcontractor packages, and final tender returns. You will obtain and evaluate supplier and subcontractor quotations, ensure assumptions and exclusions are clearly documented, and maintain accurate estimating records. The role will also involve contributing to value engineering exercises, reviewing design changes, supporting project handovers, and providing commercial advice throughout the pre-construction phase.

The successful candidate will have substantial experience in a senior estimating or pre-construction position, ideally within construction, civil engineering, building services, or a related sector. You should be confident interpreting technical information and using estimating, cost management, and Microsoft Office software. Strong numerical, analytical, and negotiation skills are essential, along with the ability to prioritise workloads and meet demanding deadlines. You will be expected to communicate clearly with stakeholders at all levels, challenge information where necessary, and work with integrity and professionalism. A relevant qualification or demonstrable equivalent experience is preferred, as is a strong understanding of procurement routes, contractual requirements, construction methods, and current market costs.
