Job Description
Estimator - Specialist Roofing & Construction
Location: Greater Manchester
Salary: £30,000-£50,000 DOE
Sector: Specialist Zinc & Copper Roofing / Construction
I'm recruiting on behalf of a contractor in Greater Manchester, looking to appoint an Estimator as they enter an exciting period of growth.
This is a great opportunity for someone who wants to join a small, close-knit business where they can genuinely make an impact. My client specialises in zinc and copper roofing, with a strong focus on sustainable construction, and is currently seeing increased demand for its specialist services.
Rather than joining a large company where you're just another number, you'll work closely with the Directors and have the opportunity to help shape the business as it grows. For the right person, there is significant scope to develop the position, take on greater responsibility and progress alongside the company, with the potential for bonus/profit-share opportunities longer term.
The Role
As Estimator, you'll take responsibility for preparing and submitting accurate, competitive quotations while working closely with the Directors on both existing opportunities and future business growth.
Your responsibilities will include:
Preparing accurate and competitive project estimates from drawings and client specifications
Producing professional, well-structured quotations within required timescales
Reviewing drawings, specifications and project information to establish costs
Monitoring enquiries and identifying potential new projects
Managing the enquiries inbox and following up opportunities with prospective clients
Building and developing relationships with new and existing clients
Monitoring live projects from a cost perspective
Supporting the Directors with business development
Helping develop the company's presence and brand, including its website and social media
Taking ownership of the role and identifying ways to improve estimating and commercial processes
About You
Ideally, you'll have some previous estimating experience within construction, although my client is particularly interested in finding someone with the right attitude, initiative and ambition to grow with the business.
You'll ideally have:
Around 1+ year of estimating experience within construction
The ability to read and interpret construction drawings
Experience using CAD
A relevant degree or construction qualification would be advantageous
Strong communication and relationship-building skills
A proactive and commercially minded approach
Good organisation and attention to detail
A reliable, hardworking and flexible attitude
An interest in sustainability and specialist construction
What's on Offer?
£30,000-£50,000 salary depending on experience, alongside the opportunity to join a specialist business at an important stage of its growth.
You'll receive 20 days' annual leave plus bank holidays, with potential access to a company bonus scheme.
More importantly, this is a role with genuine long-term potential. The company is family-run, ambitious and looking to grow, so someone joining now has the opportunity to grow with it rather than coming into an already rigid structure.
For someone who proves themselves and contributes to that growth, there is scope for increased responsibility, career progression and potentially profit share further down the line.
If you're an Estimator looking for somewhere you can have a real influence rather than simply producing quotes all day, this could be an excellent opportunityBefore You Apply
