Graduate Estimating Engineer

Biggin Hill

c.£35,000 + Training + Company Car + Career Development

Engineering degree completed… but not sure you want a traditional design office role?

Looking for a position where you can combine technical knowledge with problem solving, customer interaction and commercial exposure?

This opportunity could be exactly what you’re after.

We’re supporting a well-established engineering business that works on complex industrial systems used within large commercial and manufacturing environments. Following continued growth, they are looking to recruit a Graduate Estimating Engineer to join their specialist projects and commercial team.

This role would suit someone who enjoys the technical side of engineering, but also has the confidence and personality to work closely with customers, suppliers and colleagues across the business.

Importantly, this is not a heavily sales-driven environment focused on cold calling or unrealistic targets. Instead, the role centres around understanding engineering requirements, preparing accurate project quotations and helping customers identify the right technical solution.

What You’ll Be Doing

You’ll work alongside experienced engineers and commercial specialists, gradually taking ownership of a variety of project and service-related quotations.

Typical duties will include:

Preparing cost estimates for engineering works, repairs and upgrade projects

Reviewing drawings, technical information and customer requirements

Calculating labour, materials and external contractor costs

Speaking with suppliers to obtain pricing and lead times

Producing clear and professional proposals for customers

Supporting customers with technical and commercial queries

Updating internal systems and tracking quotation activity

Visiting customer sites occasionally with senior team members

You’ll gain exposure to a wide variety of engineering projects and applications, giving you an excellent platform to build both technical and commercial experience.

What They’re Looking For

Degree qualified in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Energy Engineering or a similar technical subject

Strong communication skills and a professional approach

Good attention to detail and numerical confidence

Interested in engineering systems, industrial technology and problem solving

Motivated to build a long-term career within a growing engineering business

Full UK driving licence

Graduates with placement experience, part-time technical work or customer-facing experience would be particularly interesting, although this isn’t essential.

Why Apply?

Excellent training and mentoring from experienced professionals

Clear progression into senior commercial or technical engineering roles

Opportunity to work on interesting industrial projects

Supportive and collaborative team environment

Company vehicle provided after probation

Growing business with long-term opportunities

Competitive salary and benefits package

This is a brilliant opportunity for an ambitious graduate who wants to move into a varied engineering role offering far more than a standard graduate desk job
