Are you an experienced Senior Estimator looking to work on technically challenging, high-value refurbishment and remediation projects?

We're working with a highly respected specialist contractor that has built an excellent reputation for delivering complex refurbishment, façade remediation, heritage restoration and fire safety projects across London and the South East. Due to continued growth, they're looking to appoint an experienced Senior Estimator to play a key role within their pre-construction team.

This is an excellent opportunity to join a business at the forefront of the Building Safety Act, working on some of the UK's most technically demanding refurbishment schemes, including occupied buildings, listed properties and Higher Risk Buildings (HRBs).

The Role

As Senior Estimator, you'll take ownership of the estimating process from initial enquiry through to tender submission, working closely with commercial, pre-construction and operational teams to produce accurate, commercially competitive and technically robust tenders.

You'll be involved in a wide variety of complex projects where no two schemes are the same, requiring strong commercial judgement and the ability to develop pricing strategies from evolving design information.

Typical Projects

* Cladding and façade remediation

* Major refurbishment projects

* Heritage and listed building restoration

* Fire remediation works

* Building Safety Act-driven schemes

Responsibilities

* Preparing detailed cost plans, estimates and tender submissions

* Reviewing technical documentation, specifications and drawings

* Producing comprehensive pricing for complex refurbishment and remediation projects

* Liaising with specialist subcontractors and supply chain partners to obtain competitive quotations

* Identifying commercial risks, opportunities and value engineering solutions

* Supporting bid strategy, programme development and tender presentations

* Working closely with delivery teams to ensure a smooth handover following project award

About You

We're keen to speak with experienced estimators who have a background within one or more of the following sectors:

* Refurbishment

* Façades and external envelope

* Fire remediation

* Main contracting

You'll also have:

* Proven experience operating at Senior Estimator level

* Excellent commercial awareness and attention to detail

* The ability to interpret complex technical information and develop clear pricing strategies

* Strong negotiation and communication skills

* Experience working on refurbishment or compliance-led projects would be highly advantageous

Experience working on Higher Risk Buildings (HRBs) or projects under the Building Safety Regulator is desirable but not essential.

Training & Development

This employer is committed to investing in its people. If you don't already have extensive exposure to the Building Safety Act or Higher Risk Buildings, you'll receive ongoing training, mentoring and support to develop your expertise in this rapidly evolving sector.

What's on Offer

* Circa £100,000 salary (depending on experience)

* Excellent benefits package

* Long-term career progression

* Exposure to technically challenging, high-profile projects

* Structured professional development

* Opportunity to become a key member of a growing and well-established contractor
