Key responsibilities will include:
· Collaborating closely with Commercial and Sales departments to support business growth
· Quantify flooring works from drawings and specifications using Callidus and other digital tools.

· Engaging with clients and main contractors to fully understand project requirements.
· Working under pressure to meet deadlines, often across several concurrent projects.
· Researching and analysing costs for flooring materials, adhesives, labour, and equipment
· Obtaining and assessing supplier / subcontractor quotes to ensure value for money
· Collaborating with the Procurement Manager to negotiate pricing and secure discounts
· Identifying and evaluating project-specific risks during the pricing stage
· Producing and submitting clear, concise and competitive flooring quotations
· Assisting with bid preparation and contract negotiations
· Supporting the commercial team with pre-construction planning and budgeting
· Monitoring and evaluating pricing strategy success through analysis of win rates and post-project cost reviews
The Role Requires:
· Proficiency with Microsoft Office, Outlook, and client portals/document hosting systems.
· Precision and attention to detail in all aspects of estimating
· Ability to work independently as well as within a team
· Strong communication skills-both verbal and written
· A flexible, can-do approach with a proactive mindset
The client is successful, growing and will provide their employees with further training and qualifications to support their professional development. Preference will be given to candidates that are well educated, conscientious and are self-starters.
This is an exceptional opportunity to really make a positive mark within a very friendly, supportive and team-oriented business.
