- Maintaining accurate records of estimates, rates and market data
- Supporting handover meetings to ensure a clear transition from tender to delivery
About you
You will have previous estimating experience within water, utilities, civil engineering or a related construction environment. A strong understanding of construction methods, supply chain pricing and commercial principles is essential, along with the ability to interpret technical information and produce clear, accurate documentation.
You should be commercially aware, highly organised and confident managing multiple tenders to demanding deadlines. Excellent communication and negotiation skills are required, as is a methodical approach to checking costs and ensuring accuracy. Experience with estimating software and Microsoft Excel would be advantageous.
