Are you an experienced Estimator with a background in manufacturing or engineering — someone who not only understands costs and quotations but also enjoys seeing projects through from concept to completion? If you combine strong commercial awareness with hands-on project coordination skills, this could be your ideal next role. The Company We’re partnering with a well-established and expanding manufacturing business. With continued investment in innovation, facilities, and people, the company is looking to strengthen its commercial and technical team with an Estimator / Project Engineer who can bridge the gap between estimation, engineering, and delivery. The Role This is a varied, technically engaging position that combines estimating and project engineering. You’ll play a key role in preparing accurate costings and quotations, while also managing projects through the early stages of production — ensuring that technical specifications, timelines, and customer expectations are fully aligned. Day-to-day, you’ll be: * Reviewing engineering drawings and specifications to produce detailed and accurate cost estimates. * Liaising with suppliers and subcontractors to source pricing and lead times for materials and services. * Calculating material, labour, and overhead costs to prepare quotations and tender documents. * Collaborating with design, production, and quality teams to ensure manufacturability and efficiency. * Acting as a technical liaison between customers and internal departments to ensure clear communication throughout each project. * Supporting project planning, scheduling, and change management during early project phases. * Identifying value engineering opportunities and recommending cost-effective solutions. About You We’re looking for a well-rounded professional with both commercial and technical understanding: * Proven experience as an Estimator, Project Engineer, or similar within a manufacturing or engineering environment. * Strong ability to read and interpret technical drawings (CAD experience advantageous). * Excellent numerical and analytical skills with solid commercial awareness. * Confident communicator able to engage with clients, suppliers, and internal teams. What’s on Offer * Salary up to £45,000 * A varied role combining estimating and project involvement. * Career progression opportunities within a forward-thinking, growing manufacturer. * Supportive, collaborative working culture where your input genuinely makes a difference. * The opportunity to work on diverse, technically challenging projects. If you’re someone who thrives on both the technical and commercial sides of manufacturing — and enjoys taking ownership of projects from quote to completion — we’d love to hear from you.
