• There are inconsistencies in job titles and locations, e.g., 'Cost Estimation Leader' vs. 'Estimating Manager' and locations 'Luton' vs. 'Warwick,' which need clarification.
• HTML tags are used appropriately, but some sections could be better formatted for readability, such as separating responsibilities, requirements, and company info more clearly.
• The content is comprehensive but somewhat verbose; condensing some sections could improve focus.
