About the job Estimator

Are you an Estimator looking to join a well-established, financially secure contractor with an outstanding reputation for delivering high-quality groundworks and civil engineering projects across the Midlands?

Our client is a privately owned, forward-thinking business that has built long-standing relationships with many of the UK's leading housebuilders and developers. With a strong pipeline of secured work, continued investment in people and technology, and ambitious plans for sustainable growth, they offer a genuine long-term career opportunity rather than just another job.

As part of an experienced and collaborative pre-construction team, you'll play a pivotal role in securing new projects by producing accurate, commercially competitive tenders across a diverse portfolio of residential groundworks and infrastructure schemes. You'll work closely with operational and commercial teams, influencing projects from the earliest stages and contributing directly to the company's continued success.

This is an excellent opportunity for an Estimator who wants to join a business where your expertise is recognised, career progression is actively encouraged, and you'll be involved in some of the Midlands' most exciting residential developments.
