Overview

Senior Estimating Manager

I'm currently working with a leading consultancy delivering a nationally significant rail programme and am looking to appoint two Senior Estimating Managers to support a major project portfolio.

This is a fantastic opportunity for experienced estimators with a background in heavy civils and major infrastructure to take on a leadership role within a complex, high-profile environment.


Key Details

* Pay rate: Up to £64.22 per hour (umbrella)
* Duration: 6-12 months
* Location: London and/or Birmingham (on-site 3 days per week)


The Role

As a Senior Estimating Manager, you will play a key role in the cost management and assurance of a major rail programme. You will lead a small estimating team, work closely with stakeholders, and produce high-quality estimates to support decision-making at various project stages.

* Leading and developing a small estimating team within a major rail project
* Providing assurance and challenge on contractor estimates
* Producing high-level order of magnitude and first-principles estimates
* Working across multiple work packages and disciplines
* Completing full take-offs independently using UK methods of measurement (RMM1, CESMM4)
* Reviewing and guiding the work of junior estimators
* Preparing basis-of-estimate reports for senior review
* Benchmarking estimates against market data
* Engaging confidently with engineers, clients, and project stakeholders


About You

You will bring strong experience in:

* Heavy civils, rail, and major infrastructure projects
* MEP estimating
* Estimating techniques, deep-dive cost analysis, parametric modelling, and data validation
* Estimating software and indirect cost development

You'll also understand the role of a consultancy within major projects and the importance of robust, defensible budgetary estimates.

If you're an experienced estimator looking for a long-term contract role on a flagship infrastructure programme, I'd be keen to discuss this opportunity further.
