We’re looking for an experienced

FM Pricing Estimator to take ownership of pricing across IFM and single-service bids, acting as the commercial lead within a multi-disciplinary bid team.

This role is focused on end-to-end ownership of FM tender pricing, requiring someone who has led bid submissions and built robust commercial models within an outsourcing environment. You will be responsible for translating operational solutions into compelling, competitive pricing submissions that balance risk, value, and customer requirements.

Working closely with Bid Management, Business Development and operational teams, you will develop pricing strategies, build detailed costing models, identify risks and opportunities, and lead the pricing workstream through governance to final submission.

You will take full ownership of labour modelling, reactive data analysis, rostering, customer pricing templates, supply chain inputs, and mobilisation/transition pricing, ensuring all outputs are accurate, defensible, and commercially sound.

This role is suited to candidates with proven experience leading FM / IFM bid pricing — not those operating in purely finance or support roles.
