Estimator or Quantity Surveyor
permanent job for residential contractor to convert bids & tenders (Remote Job) Your new company
is a regional construction firm based in London that has been trading for 6 years and achieved a turnover of £3.75 million. They are well established locally, having grown from a small local business into a well-established design & build contractor, renowned for their commitment to quality, innovation, and client satisfaction. Their expertise spans residential, commercial, and industrial construction, as well as renovation and remodelling projects. A typical project would be £250-£300k, but they are looking to build a pipeline of Design & Build projects of value £2-£5 million in the London market. Your new role
is to act as the bid coordinator to estimate the costs of the projects via take-offs from drawings and submit competitive estimates to the clients. You will be working with a team of 6 managers and interfacing with external stakeholders like engineers, architects, suppliers, subcontractors, planning authorities, public bodies, and the client. The hours of work are weekdays, 08:00-16:00, and you will be able to work remotely / work from home.

Once a bid has been awarded, you may be required to continue with the cost control function of the project or move onto the next bid. At any point in time, you will have 10-30 bids in the process of creating a pipeline. What you'll need to succeed
is substantial UK-based construction experience as an Estimator or Quantity Surveyor involved in pre-construction and bids (not overseas). Ideally, your UK-based residential construction experience would be working for a main contractor, general builder, or developer where you would have acquired the skills needed to perform the above list of duties. Previous experience of converting successful bids is essential. You can live anywhere as this is a remote position. You will have excellent communication skills, presentation skills, commercial acumen, tender writing skills, office skills, be IT literate, and be competent at construction processes. You will be proficient in MS Office and Excel as well as expert at take-offs from drawings. You must have the right to work in the UK and a photo ID. What you'll get in return
is a permanent job opportunity paying a salary of £60,000 to £70,000, 20 days paid holiday per annum plus BH, a contributory pension scheme. You will be provided with a company laptop and mobile phone. The start date of this job is Monday 16th December 2024. You will be engaged on a probation period of 3-6 months, after which a salary review will be performed based on performance.
