Expire in: a month
Our client is a small but growing UK manufacturer in the metals industry, supplying some of the most demanding industries in the world — defence, telecoms, marine and general engineering.
This role sits at the centre of an exciting period of growth, with a genuine opportunity to play a key role in a growing business rather than just fit into an existing one.
What's on offer
*
£40,000 – £45,000 depending on experience
*
Strong bonus potential of up to 30%
*
Group profit share scheme
*
Pension scheme
*
A genuinely varied, high-ownership role in a business investing in its future
The role
This is a rare, full-spectrum technical estimating role. You won't just be putting together quotes — you'll own the whole journey from enquiry through to order and delivery:
*
Reviewing customer enquiries and technical specifications, working out material, process and testing requirements
*
Estimating and costing jobs, sourcing material from suppliers where needed
*
Preparing and issuing quotations, negotiating where required and processing orders through to delivery
*
Building close working relationships with the production team to make sure what's quoted can be made, on time and to spec
*
Acting as a key point of contact for customers — this is customer service and technical support as much as it is estimating
About you
*
Come from a manufacturing or engineering background — ideally from a smaller, subcontract or precision engineering environment where you've had to wear more than one hat (estimating, technical, customer-facing)
*
Comfortable interpreting technical drawings, specifications and customer requirements
*
Methodical and precise: small errors here can have real consequences once something reaches the shop floor
*
Confident communicating with both customers and internal production teams
*
Knowledge of tube manufacturing or non-ferrous metals (brass, copper, copper-nickel, aluminium) is a bonus, not a requirement
*
Happy to be based on-site, with occasional customer visits (mileage paid)
If you've been the person at a smaller manufacturing business who ends up doing a bit of everything from estimating, quoting, chasing suppliers to keeping customers happy, this could be a natural next step.
