Job Description
South WalesSalary: £35,000 - £42,000 + Car AllowanceFull-time | PermanentVibe Recruit is delighted to be working on behalf of an established and growing business to recruit an experienced Estimator to join their Facilities Management team.
This is an excellent opportunity for an Estimator with experience within Facilities Management, construction, building maintenance or a similar environment to take ownership of estimating a varied range of works across commercial supermarket sites.
The projects are diverse and can include petrol forecourt rebuilds, commercial roofing projects and general building and maintenance works, meaning no two projects will necessarily be the same.

Travel will form a relatively small part of the position and could cover locations from Bristol through South Wales and West Wales, and occasionally into Cornwall.

Carry out desktop estimating, reviewing drawings, specifications and project information to accurately scope works.
Conduct occasional site surveys where required to establish project requirements and site-specific considerations.
Calculate project costs including labour, materials, tools, equipment and plant.
Produce detailed Bills of Materials (BOMs), ensuring everything required is identified ahead of project commencement.
Work closely with contractors, suppliers and internal operational teams to ensure projects are accurately costed and planned.
Prepare relevant project documentation, including consideration of health & safety requirements and site restrictions.
