This reputable cladding contractor delivers high-quality facade projects, working with major contractors such as Willmott Dixon, Galliford Try, Morgan Sindall, Wates, and Kier.

* Use standard pricing templates where available, adapting them as required.
* Price projects in the £1M to £5M range, including both new-build and recladding schemes.
* Collaborate closely with main contractors and internal stakeholders throughout the tender process.
Ideal Candidate:
* Experience as an Estimator in facade cladding, rainscreen systems, or similar.
* Comfortable building estimates analytically from scratch.
* Understanding of rainscreen build-ups and recladding projects.
* Familiarity with Gateway Two processes is a bonus.
* Skilled in using OST, Bluebeam, or similar take-off software.
* A team player with an ethical mindset and a willingness to learn and share knowledge.

* £50,000 – £80,000 (depending on experience)
* £5,000 car allowance
* Flexible hybrid working arrangements
* Fluid team structure offering clear progression and promotion pathways
