This is a rare opportunity for an Estimator to join a growing subcontractor who works for renowned tier one contractors and has a strong reputation with a consistent pipeline of work across the Midlands. This role offers training, development and progression to senior and beyond.
Are you an Estimator feeling stuck pricing the same type of work and looking to broaden your experience across groundworks, brickwork, and civils? Do you want a role where your success will directly impact your progression?
The business delivers specialist subcontract packages including groundworks, tarmac, and brickwork for Tier 1 main contractors. With long‑standing client relationships across education, defence, and leisure sectors, they have built a strong and reliable pipeline of work. As demand continues to grow, they are investing in their estimating team to support the next phase of expansion.
In this role, you'll take full ownership of tenders from enquiry through to handover, working from drawings, building up rates, and collaborating closely with clients and the supply chain to produce accurate and competitive submissions. Your input will directly influence project wins and business growth.
This role will suit an Estimator with a construction background, particularly within groundworks, brickwork, or structural packages, who is commercially aware, confident, and motivated to develop their career in a fast‑paced environment.
With no ceiling on progression and a business that actively promotes from within, this is a genuine opportunity to accelerate your career, gain wider project exposure, and progress into senior and leadership roles as the company continues to grow.
