* Review drawings, specifications, and tender documentation
* Complete detailed labour and material take-offs
* Obtain and manage supplier and subcontractor quotations
* Produce structured cost plans and tender submissions
* Identify value engineering opportunities and commercial risks
* Support pre-construction strategy and project handover
* Coordinate with mechanical and wider project teams
Projects
* £100k – £2M+ electrical packages
* Infrastructure and substation works
* Large-scale warehouse and logistics developments
* Repeat works with established clients and frameworks
* We are actively pricing multiple high-value opportunities across several sectors.
About You
* Proven experience as an Electrical Estimator (commercial/industrial projects)
