Estimator

Job Posted: a month ago

Salary: £ 50,000 - 60,000 / Annum
Job Type: Permanent
Location: Northampton, Northamptonshire

Expire in: 22 hours

Job Description

A growing specialist brickwork subcontractor is looking to appoint an experienced Estimator to support the next stage of its expansion. With turnover of circa £13.5m, a strong portfolio of repeat clients and a well established reputation for delivering brickwork packages across London and the South East, this is a business with real momentum and a solid platform for long term growth. The company's own website highlights a specialist focus on brickwork and a track record of projects across locations including London, Watford, Reading and Bushey.

This is a standout opportunity for an Estimator who wants autonomy, flexibility and genuine influence. The role is primarily remote, giving you the ability to work from home for the majority of the week, with bi-monthly meetings in London and occasional additional site visits where project demands require it. You will play a key role in pricing and securing work in a subcontracting environment, working closely with senior stakeholders and helping protect margin as the business continues to scale.

If you are commercially sharp, confident managing tenders and looking for a role where your input will be visible and valued, this is a position with real scope. You will be joining a contractor that already has strong client relationships in place, a healthy repeat order base, and the ambition to keep building on that success.
