Senior Estimator

Reference: hdj35pzzz4urqiqan0kj

We are seeking an experienced Senior Estimator to lead the preparation of accurate, competitive, and commercially robust estimates for a range of projects. The successful candidate will evaluate drawings, specifications, schedules, and other documentation to develop detailed cost plans and tender submissions. You will work closely with project managers, design teams, procurement specialists, subcontractors, and suppliers to ensure all pricing is well researched, clearly presented, and aligned with project requirements.

Your responsibilities will include reviewing tender and contract documents, identifying scope gaps and commercial risks, obtaining and analysing supplier and subcontractor quotations, and preparing detailed bills of quantities, cost breakdowns, and project estimates. You will maintain pricing databases, monitor market trends, assess labour, materials, plant, and logistics costs, and contribute to value engineering and cost-saving initiatives. You will also support bid strategy, prepare tender clarifications, participate in negotiations, and provide clear recommendations to senior stakeholders. Once projects are secured, you may assist with handover activities to ensure estimated costs, assumptions, exclusions, and programme considerations are fully understood by the delivery team.

Applicants should have substantial estimating experience within construction, engineering, infrastructure, or a closely related sector, along with a strong understanding of contracts, procurement processes, construction methods, and commercial principles. Proficiency with estimating software, spreadsheets, and relevant digital tools is required, as is the ability to interpret technical drawings and project specifications. You will be highly analytical, commercially aware, organised, and confident communicating with internal and external stakeholders. Strong attention to detail, the ability to manage multiple tenders under tight deadlines, and a proactive approach to identifying risk and opportunity are essential. Relevant technical or professional qualifications are desirable, together with a proven record of delivering accurate estimates for complex projects.
