This company is targeting significant growth, aiming to scale to £5 million in turnover over the next few years. They operate in highly specialised sectors including nuclear, defence, and major infrastructure projects, and offer full end-to-end services including bending, fabrication, welding, laser cutting, and paint processes.\nYou’ll be joining a business that’s growing rapidly and investing in its people – offering long-term development, a stable working environment, and genuine progression routes into more senior commercial or management positions.\nJob Description:\nAs an Estimator, you will play a vital role in supporting the estimating and sales function, reporting directly to the Commercial Manager.

It’s a chance to become part of a high-growth engineering business where your ideas and input will be valued. As an Estimator, you’ll be given real responsibility, support from experienced leadership, and the chance to grow into a more senior commercial position as the business scales.\nIf you’re an experienced Estimator or commercially-minded fabricator ready to step up, this could be the perfect next move
