Electrical Estimator
Posted on May 27, 2026 by CV-Library
Preston, Lancashire, United Kingdom
Construction
Immediate Start
£60k - £70k Annual
Full-Time
The Opportunity
Our client is one of the North West’s most established M&E contractors and they are looking for an experienced Electrical Estimator to join their pre-construction team. This is a hybrid role with four days working from home, making it well suited to someone who works well independently and manages their own workload with confidence.
The business has a structured and consistent forward order book, and the estimating function is a well-supported one. For an experienced estimator, this is a role with real substance – a varied project pipeline, a strong supply chain network and a team around you that knows how to deliver.
About the Business
With over 50 years in the industry and a team of more than 200 staff, our client is one of the longest-established building services engineering businesses in the North West. They deliver comprehensive electrical and mechanical packages – including full design and build capability – for major projects across the region and nationally, and hold places on major public sector procurement frameworks covering projects from £50,000 to over £3 million.
Their work spans healthcare, commercial and industrial sectors, with a particularly strong track record in complex NHS hospital schemes. Beyond core M&E, their capability extends to building automation and controls, renewable energy and data and telecoms infrastructure. The business is accredited to ISO 9001 and ISO 14001, and operates a full 24-hour maintenance service alongside project delivery.

What We’re Looking For

*
Confident reading and interpreting electrical drawings, specifications and tender documentation
*
Proficiency in estimating software and Microsoft Excel
*
Strong commercial awareness and attention to detail
*
Ability to manage multiple tender programmes simultaneously
*
Self-motivated and well organised – essential given the hybrid working pattern
What’s on Offer
