Some estimating roles drain your time. This one amplifies your impact. You'll be joining a privately owned design & build main contractor based in Bromsgrove — stepping into a collaborative, well-supported pre-construction environment where specialists handle the heavy measurement, and you focus on strategy, pricing and winning the right work. This is a Senior Estimator role where your judgement genuinely shapes outcomes. You'll work closely with the Managing Director — who remains hands‑on around earthworks — alongside design managers and QSs, bringing commercial clarity across a strong pipeline of negotiated projects. While consultants produce the Bills of Quantities and cut‑and‑fill models, you'll stay deeply involved in pricing and analysis — reviewing quantities, interrogating subcontractor returns and shaping the final commercial position. So the work stays technical and influential, without being consumed by pure measurement. And because a high proportion of work is negotiated, you're not just chasing the lowest price. You're helping secure the right projects with a close‑knit, trusted supply chain — making pricing more collaborative, more accurate and more rewarding. What you'll do

Lead pricing, risk and bid strategy across a range of tenders Analyse BoQs and earthworks outputs provided by consultants Shape commercially robust proposals and value-driven solutions Work closely with design, commercial and senior leadership teams Support strong relationships with clients and supply chain partners

What you'll need

Senior estimating experience within a main contractor Confidence influencing pricing and bid direction Strong commercial and analytical skills Experience in design & build environments A collaborative, relationship‑focused approach
