  • Working closely with the CAD team to interpret drawings and specifications
  • Sourcing pricing from suppliers and subcontractors
  • Supporting the wider commercial team with measurement and take-offs
  • Building strong working relationships internally and with clients

What We're Looking For

  • Some experience in an estimating, quantity surveying, or similar construction role is ideal, though this is a junior-level position and full training will be provided
  • Comfortable working with CAD packages, or willing to learn
  • Full UK driving licence and access to a car
  • Strong numeracy and attention to detail
  • A proactive, organised approach and good communication skills

What's on Offer

  • £30,000+ basic salary, depending on experience
  • Holiday entitlement
  • Pension scheme
  • Genuine progression opportunities within a growing business

If you're looking to build a career in construction estimating with a business that will invest in your development, we'd love to hear from you.
