Overview

We’re working with a well-respected and fast-growing construction and interiors business with an increasing volume of electrical packages across commercial fit-outs and refurbishment projects. They’re now looking to bring in a capable Electrical Estimator who can own the electrical pricing function and help shape the future of how they deliver projects — from core power distribution to CCTV, fire alarms, and access control systems.

If you're looking for autonomy, interesting projects, and a business that trusts your judgement, this is one not to miss.

What You'll Be Doing

• Taking the lead on estimating all electrical elements of fit-out and refurb projects (values typically up to £1M)
• Reviewing technical specs, drawings, and designs to scope requirements accurately
• Preparing competitive cost estimates for labour, materials, plant, and subcontractor input
• Working closely with project managers, engineers, and commercial leads to ensure aligned, accurate tenders
• Supporting procurement and supplier engagement to negotiate strong rates
• Advising on risk, compliance, and value engineering opportunities to support margin protection

Who We're Looking For

• Previous experience estimating electrical works within construction or fit-out settings
• Sound understanding of electrical systems including power, lighting, fire alarm, access control, CCTV, and data
• ONC/HNC in Electrical or Building Services Engineering (or equivalent practical experience)
• Commercially aware with a strong grasp of cost breakdowns and estimating principles
• Confident interpreting complex specifications, schematics, and electrical drawings
• Strong organisational skills with the ability to manage deadlines and multiple estimates at once
• Based in Sheffield or surrounding areas — this is an office-based role with strong team collaboration

What You’ll Get in Return

• Competitive salary based on experience
• Supportive leadership team that values technical input
• A voice in the direction of future electrical delivery
• Career progression as the electrical division continues to grow
• Structured work schedule – Monday to Friday, no weekends
• Company events, health and wellbeing initiatives, and on-site parking

This is an ideal role for someone who’s ready to take ownership and make a measurable impact inside a growing, design-led business.
