In the role of Estimator you manage and maintain the library of cost appraisals to produce proactive budgeting and cost management throughout the development of the build cycle.

Typically, the housing developments will be circa 100 units and mainly of traditional or timber frame construction, so a strong understanding of the house building and construction process would be beneficial.

Time management and organisation skills will be a priority for this fast-paced environment due to the busy nature of the region and the strong pipeline of schemes coming into the business and moving into 2026.
