Senior Estimator

Senior Estimator - Tier 1 Contractor 

Location: Birmingham | Hybrid Working

Salary: Up to £100,000 + Exceptional Benefits + Outstanding Career Progression

Benefits: 10% pension, 26 days holiday plus birthday off, Private medical, Enhanced maternity and paternity leave, Childcare vouchers, Company car or car allowance
 

The Company: 

A rare opportunity has arisen to join one of the UK’s most respected and sought-after construction businesses as a Senior Estimator within their established Midlands operation. 

This privately-owned contractor has built an exceptional reputation across the industry — not only for delivering high-quality projects, but for the way they invest in, develop and retain their people. With one of the strongest staff retention rates in the market, a secure long-term pipeline and a cash-rich balance sheet, this is genuinely a business where people build long-term careers.

Operating across the Midlands on a regional basis, the company delivers a broad range of landmark projects spanning education, healthcare, commercial, leisure and public sector developments. Their approach is collaborative, forward-thinking and quality driven , with a genuine emphasis on culture, flexibility and employee wellbeing.

The Opportunity:

This role offers the chance to become a key member of a highly successful pre-construction team, working on meaningful regional projects while enjoying the flexibility of hybrid working and excellent long-term career prospects.

You will play a pivotal role in leading and coordinating tenders, developing winning strategies and working closely with operational and commercial teams to secure high-profile work across the Midlands region.

This is not simply another estimating role — it is an opportunity to join a business widely recognised as one of the best employers in the UK construction market.
