A rapidly expanding manufacturing business supplying products into the construction sector is looking to appoint a Technical Estimator as part of its continued growth.

This is a fast-paced, high-volume environment where priorities can shift quickly. The business is looking for someone who enjoys momentum, can juggle multiple enquiries at once, and brings a proactive, solutions-focused mindset to their work.

The role

Working closely with both customers and internal teams, you’ll manage estimating activity from initial enquiry through to final quotation, ensuring a strong balance between technical accuracy and commercial awareness.

Your responsibilities will include:

Reviewing customer enquiries, drawings and specifications
	
Producing accurate and timely costings for manufactured products used on construction projects
	
Clarifying technical requirements with customers and internal stakeholders
	
Managing multiple live enquiries while working to deadlines
	
Maintaining pricing and enquiry information using internal systems
	
Supporting ongoing improvements to estimating processes as the business continues to scale

What we’re looking for

This role will suit a driven, organised and people-focused individual who performs well in a busy environment.

Experience in estimating, technical sales, or a similar commercial/technical role – we would consider engineers with pricing experience looking to move into a fully office based role
	
A good technical understanding and confidence interpreting drawings or specifications
	
Strong numerical accuracy and attention to detail
	
Good Excel skills
	
The ability to communicate clearly with both technical and non-technical stakeholders
	
A proactive, respectful and career-minded approach
	
A relevant degree (such as engineering, manufacturing or a related technical discipline) would be advantageous but is not essential.

What’s on offer

Competitive salary, which is negotiable, but most likely between £30,000 – £45,000, depending on experience
	
Full-time hours: 7:00am – 4:00pm, Monday to Friday
	
A role within a business that is growing quickly and investing in its people
	
Genuine scope for development and progression as the company continues to expand
	
A collaborative, hands-on working environment
