Company: Contract Scotland
Apply for the Chief Estimator – Infrastructure – (Relocation to Canada)
Location: Manchester
Job Description:

Executive-Level Salary + Bonus + Equity (Employee Owned)

This is not just estimating.

This is where strategy wins projects.

If you’ve led bids on major infrastructure, this is your opportunity to step into a role where you shape billion-dollar outcomes.

Why Canada — And Why Now?

Because infrastructure is moving at scale.

  • Stability and world-class lifestyle
  • A country that supports leaders and families relocating long-term

This is timing. And it’s big.

The Opportunity

A Tier 1, employee-owned contractor is expanding its Infrastructure division and hiring a Chief Estimator to lead from the front.

You’ll report directly to the Pre-Construction Director and take ownership of:

  • Estimating strategy across multiple large-scale projects

This is not a back-office role.

You are driving how projects are won.

What You’ll Be Leading

  • Full oversight of pre-construction & estimating performance
  • Bid strategy, risk analysis & cost optimisation
  • Constructability input & innovation strategies
  • Leadership of high-performing estimating teams
  • Stakeholder engagement across clients, consultants & partners

Who This Is For

  • Proven leadership on $100M+ infrastructure projects
  • Strong experience in Design-Build / CM / IPD models
  • Ability to lead teams, mentor talent & drive performance
  • Commercially sharp — you understand how to win work profitably
  • Comfortable operating at senior leadership level

Why This Role Stands Out

  • Long-term pipeline of major infrastructure work
  • A role where your decisions directly impact multi-million/billion-dollar outcomes
  • If you’ve reached the top of estimating — this is the next level.
  • Relocate. Lead. Win the work that builds nations.
