Some estimating roles drain your time. This one amplifies your impact.
You’ll be joining a privately owned design & build main contractor based in Bromsgrove — stepping into a collaborative, well‑supported pre‑construction environment where specialists handle the heavy measurement, and you focus on strategy, pricing and winning the right work.
This is a Senior Estimator role where your judgement genuinely shapes outcomes. You’ll work closely with the Managing Director — who remains hands‑on around earthworks — alongside design managers and QSs, bringing commercial clarity across a strong pipeline of negotiated projects.
While consultants produce the Bills of Quantities and cut‑and‑fill models, you’ll stay deeply involved in pricing and analysis — reviewing quantities, interrogating subcontractor returns and shaping the final commercial position. So the work stays technical and influential, without being consumed by pure measurement.
And because a high proportion of work is negotiated, you’re not just chasing the lowest price. You’re helping secure the right projects with a close‑knit, trusted supply chain — making pricing more collaborative, more accurate and more rewarding.
What you’ll do
- Lead pricing, risk and bid strategy across a range of tenders
- Analyse BoQs and earthworks outputs provided by consultants
- Shape commercially robust proposals and value‑driven solutions
- Work closely with design, commercial and senior leadership teams
- Support strong relationships with clients and supply chain partners
What you’ll need
- Senior estimating experience within a main contractor
- Confidence influencing pricing and bid direction
- Strong commercial and analytical skills
- Experience in design & build environments
- A collaborative, relationship‑focused approach
About the company
This is a contractor built on long‑term relationships, repeat business and delivery consistency. They invest in specialist pre‑construction support to reduce risk and improve certainty — allowing their estimators to focus on high‑value decision‑making.

If you prefer shaping winning strategy over firefighting tenders, this role puts you back where you do your best work.
