The business has a strong track record delivering major civil engineering, earthworks, groundworks, remediation, drainage and infrastructure projects across Yorkshire and the wider North of England.

Reviewing drawings, specifications, scopes and contract documentation
Obtaining and analysing subcontractor and supplier quotations
Producing accurate bills of quantities and tender breakdowns

Attending site visits and tender meetings
Liaising with clients, consultants, subcontractors and suppliers
Working closely with the operational team to ensure buildability and accurate pricing
Supporting the handover of successful tenders to the commercial and delivery teams
Managing multiple tenders and deadlines at any one time

You'll ideally have:
Proven experience as an Estimator within civil engineering, groundworks or infrastructure
Experience pricing projects from first principles
