Estimator

Estimator - Bespoke Projects

Leicester

You know your joinery. You understand drawings. And you know how to turn an opportunity into a profitable project.

If that sounds like you, this could be a very good move.

We''re working with an established bespoke joinery business delivering high-value projects for a diverse client base, and they''re looking for an experienced Estimator to join the team.

This isn''t a role where you simply price a set of drawings and send out a quote.

You''ll be involved from tender through to handover, helping win work, build client relationships and make sure projects start on the right commercial footing.

What you''ll be doing

• Estimating costs and preparing accurate quotations across bespoke joinery projects
• Producing detailed tender and quotation proposals, including the supporting financial information
• Reading and interpreting drawings, specifications and tender documentation
• Managing the tender process and keeping opportunities moving
• Proactively following up clients for feedback and updates
• Building strong relationships with prospective clients, suppliers and internal teams
• Understanding the commercial position of projects with values up to -750k
• Keeping project and quotation information accurate within the ERP system
• Coordinating project handovers with the Project Manager and Buyer

What we''re looking for

You''ll ideally have experience in joinery estimating, project management or a closely related role within the joinery industry.

More importantly, you''ll be commercially aware, detail-focused and confident dealing with people.

You need to be someone who can look at a drawing and understand what needs to be built, what it is likely to cost and what questions need asking before a price goes out.

You''ll also need the confidence to pick up the phone, chase an opportunity and build relationships rather than simply waiting for clients to come back to you.

Why consider it?

You''ll be joining a business working on bespoke, high-value joinery projects, giving you the opportunity to develop your estimating and commercial experience across a varied project portfolio.

If you''re currently an Estimator looking for a stronger opportunity - or you''re a Joinery Project Manager who wants to move further into estimating and commercial responsibility - this is worth a conversation.
