Estimator – Construction
Location: Liverpool
Salary: Competitive DOE
Sector: Education / Main Contracting
Our client, a well-established Main Contractor based in Liverpool, is looking to appoint an Estimator to join their growing Construction team. The business delivers a wide range of projects, predominantly within the Education sector, with project values typically ranging from £500k to £1m.
This opportunity would suit either:
- An Estimator looking to develop within a supportive contractor environment, or
- A slightly more experienced candidate with some Quantity Surveying exposure who can bring additional commercial value to the team.
The Role
The successful candidate will support the pre-construction function and play a key role in the tendering process, helping to secure projects within tight turnaround times, typically 2–3 days.
Key responsibilities will include:
- Preparing and assisting with cost estimates and tender submissions
- Sending out subcontractor and supplier enquiries
- Liaising with suppliers and subcontractors to obtain competitive quotations
- Supporting the commercial and pre-construction teams throughout the tender process
- Assisting with pricing analysis and cost comparisons
- Working on projects primarily within the Education sector
- Supporting the delivery of competitive tenders on projects valued between £500k–£1m
Candidate Profile
Our client is focused more on personality, attitude, and capability than the specific companies candidates have worked for.
They are looking for someone who:
- Has experience within estimating in the construction industry
- Ideally has some Quantity Surveying knowledge or exposure (preferred but not essential)
- Is commercially aware and organised
- Can work effectively in a fast-paced tender environment
- Has strong communication and supplier management skills
- Is proactive, reliable, and eager to develop
Additional Information
- Office-based role in Liverpool
- Occasional work-from-home flexibility available
- Strong team environment with opportunities for progression
- The company competes through service, relationships, and agility rather than high-value national contractor projects
