About The Company:
We are currently working with a highly respected specialist subcontractor working with some of the UK's leading Tier 1 contractors. Specialising in drylining, plastering, SFS and fire stopping, the company has established an excellent reputation for quality, reliability and delivering projects to a consistently high standard.
With a strong portfolio of repeat clients, several industry awards and an impressive level of staff retention, they have built a business that people genuinely enjoy being part of.
The company has developed a positive, supportive and collaborative culture, combining high standards and ambition with an environment where employees are valued and given the opportunity to develop.
Due to continued growth and a strong pipeline of work, the business is looking to appoint an experienced Estimator, or a Quantity Surveyor looking to make the move into Estimating, to join its team.
The Opportunity
This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced construction professional to take a key role within an established and growing specialist subcontractor.
The successful candidate will be responsible for preparing accurate and competitive tenders across a range of specialist construction projects, working closely with Tier 1 contractors, clients, suppliers and the internal commercial and operational teams.
Candidates with an Estimating background are preferred, but the company will also consider experienced Quantity Surveyors who have a strong background in drylining, fire stopping or a similar specialist subcontracting environment and are looking to move into an Estimating-focused role.
