PW Construction Recruitment is working with a highly established civil engineering and groundworks contractor in Maidstone, Kent, who is looking to appoint an experienced Senior Estimator to strengthen its pre-construction team.

This is a senior position within an established estimating department and would suit an experienced Estimator capable of taking the lead on competitive tenders from initial enquiry through to submission, negotiation, contract award and handover.

The company operates across the South East, delivering groundworks, civil engineering, infrastructure and associated construction projects to a broad client base.

The Role

As Senior Estimator, you will take a leading role in the preparation and submission of accurate, competitive and commercially robust tenders.

You will review tender documentation, undertake measurement and quantity take-offs, assess project risks, obtain subcontractor and supplier quotations and work closely with the commercial, contracts, engineering and procurement teams to establish the most appropriate methodology, programme and resources for each project.

You will be expected to understand the complete scope of works and identify potential commercial, contractual and delivery risks before submission.

Where required, you will undertake detailed measurement from tender drawings and prepare Bills of Quantities using an appropriate recognised method of measurement. Where take-offs are outsourced, you will coordinate the process to ensure accurate information is returned within the required tender programme.

Using Excel, Bluebeam and Candy estimating software, you will produce detailed take-offs and pricing information and ensure tenders are submitted accurately, professionally and within the client's required timescales.

Key Responsibilities

You will take the lead in preparing and submitting estimates, working collaboratively with the wider estimating team while assuming ownership of individual bids.

Responsibilities will include reviewing drawings, specifications and tender documentation; undertaking detailed measurement and take-offs; preparing material schedules; obtaining rates through the buying team; issuing subcontract package enquiries; analysing subcontractor returns; and incorporating appropriate quotations into the tender.

You will work closely with Contracts Managers to develop project programmes, construction sequences, scope, resource requirements, working methodologies and risk management strategies for inclusion within tender submissions.

The position will also involve organising and attending site visits with clients and subcontractors, reviewing contract terms and conditions and highlighting risks or anomalies to senior commercial management.

You will prepare and issue information to the engineering team to enable earthworks models to be developed, research construction materials and working methods and analyse anticipated resource levels ahead of tender adjudication.

Following submission, you will maintain dialogue with clients and contractors, respond to clarifications and amendments and work with the Commercial Director during post-tender discussions and negotiations through to contract award.

On successful tenders, you will provide a comprehensive handover to the delivery team, including tender summaries, marked-up drawings, measurements, Bills of Quantities and resource information. You will remain available to the site team throughout delivery to provide advice regarding tender coverage and the original pricing strategy.

Candidate Requirements

We are looking for an experienced Estimator or Senior Estimator with a strong background in civil engineering, groundworks, structures, formwork and concrete or another closely related sector.

You must be capable of taking ownership of a tender and leading a bid through the complete estimating process.

You should have strong measurement and take-off skills together with the commercial awareness required to identify contractual, programme and pricing risks.

Excellent communication skills are essential, as the role requires regular interaction with clients, subcontractors, suppliers and colleagues across estimating, commercial, contracts, procurement and operational teams.

Candidates should be organised, commercially astute and capable of producing accurate work while managing multiple deadlines within a fast-paced tendering environment.

A high level of computer literacy is required, including strong Microsoft Excel and Word skills and experience using Bluebeam PDF measurement software.

Working knowledge of Candy Estimating Software would be highly advantageous, although experience with a comparable construction estimating package will also be considered.

A full UK driving licence is essential, as the role will involve attending site surveys and tender meetings.

Package & Benefits

The Opportunity

PW Construction Recruitment is working with an established construction contractor to recruit an Assistant Quantity Surveyor for a major project in Portsmouth.

This is a site-based position offered on an initial 21-month fixed-term contract and represents an excellent opportunity for an ambitious Assistant Quantity Surveyor looking to gain hands-on commercial experience on a substantial live construction project.

Working as part of the project commercial team and reporting into a Senior Quantity Surveyor, you will support the effective financial and contractual management of the scheme throughout its delivery.

The role offers considerably more than straightforward commercial administration. You will gain practical exposure across procurement, subcontractor management, valuations, variations, cost control, CVRs and final accounts, while working closely with the operational and project management teams on site.

The Role

You will assist with the day-to-day commercial management of the project, reviewing construction drawings, specifications and project information to undertake measurements, quantities and cost estimates.

You will assist with material take-offs and procurement, obtaining and comparing quotations from suppliers and subcontractors and helping to maintain procurement schedules and trackers throughout the project.

Working alongside the Quantity Surveyor, you will support subcontractor procurement and account management, including preparing commercial comparisons, subcontract orders and associated documentation.

You will review subcontractor applications for payment, assist with valuations and payment notices and undertake the measurement and valuation of completed works on site.

The position will also involve monitoring project expenditure against budgets, identifying and recording variations and additional works and maintaining accurate change and variation registers.

As your experience develops, you will assist with subcontractor final accounts, monthly Cost Value Reconciliation reports, project forecasts and the identification of commercial risks and potential exposure.

You will also gain valuable experience of construction contracts, including JCT, developing your understanding of contractual notices, payment provisions, variations, extensions of time and loss and expense.

Working on site means you will be closely involved with the wider project team, attending meetings and liaising regularly with Quantity Surveyors, Project Managers, subcontractors and operational staff.

The Candidate

Ideally, you will hold an HND or degree in Quantity Surveying or another construction-related discipline, although relevant practical experience will also be taken into consideration.

Applicants should have at least one year's experience working within a construction company, ideally within an Assistant Quantity Surveyor, Trainee Quantity Surveyor or similar commercial position.

Previous experience working on a live construction site would be particularly advantageous.

You should have a good understanding of construction drawings, specifications and project documentation, together with some knowledge of procurement, subcontractor management and construction contracts.

Strong numerical ability, attention to detail and good Microsoft Office skills, particularly Excel, are important.

We are looking for somebody who is organised, commercially minded and keen to develop. You should be comfortable working within a busy project environment, able to manage competing priorities and confident communicating with both commercial and operational colleagues.

A full UK driving licence is required.

The Opportunity & Package

My client is offering a salary of up to £42,000 per annum, dependent upon experience, for this 21-month fixed-term contract.

For somebody in the early stages of their Quantity Surveying career, this represents an excellent opportunity to gain significant site-based commercial experience and work alongside an established project team throughout the delivery of a major construction scheme.

The breadth of the position will provide valuable exposure to the full commercial lifecycle of a project, including procurement, subcontractor accounts, valuations, variations, cost reporting, CVRs and final accounts.

If you are currently working as an Assistant Quantity Surveyor, Trainee Quantity Surveyor or within a construction commercial team and are looking for a role that will accelerate your practical project experience, we would be keen to hear from you.
