Are you an experienced Estimator or Tender professional looking to step into a role where your input genuinely shapes project success and business growth?

This is an opportunity to join a dynamic, growing construction specialist known for delivering high-quality projects and building long-standing client relationships across the UK (carpentry, joinery and fit out packages). With a strong pipeline of secured and repeat business, the company offers stability, progression, and the chance to work on varied and meaningful projects.

The Role: You will take ownership of the full tender lifecycle, from initial bid/no-bid decisions through to final submission and handover. This is a client-facing role where your ability to build relationships and present confidently will be just as important as your technical expertise.

Key responsibilities include:

• Producing accurate, competitive estimates and tender submissions
• Developing winning tender strategies aligned with business priorities
• Analysing tender opportunities and making clear bid recommendations
• Managing supplier and subcontractor input to inform pricing and design
• Preparing and presenting tender documentation to internal stakeholders and clients
• Ensuring all submissions are high-quality, compliant, and submitted on time
• Supporting smooth handover to delivery teams upon project award

What we’re looking for:

• Proven experience in estimating / tendering within construction
• Strong commercial awareness and attention to detail
• Excellent communication and presentation skills
• Ability to build and maintain relationships at all levels
• Highly organised with strong planning capability
• Proficient in MS Excel and Bluebeam (or similar)

Desirable: Membership of a professional body such as Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors or Chartered Institute of Building (or equivalent industry experience).

The Opportunity: This role offers more than just estimating, it’s a chance to become a key part of a business where your ideas, commercial thinking, and client engagement directly influence growth and success. If you’re looking for a position where you can add real value, gain exposure, this could be the right move.
