Are you a technically minded estimator who loves turning complex ideas into real-world solutions?
We’re working with a forward-thinking industry leader known for innovation and quality, who’s looking for a Design Estimator to join their growing team.
This is a key role where you’ll help bridge the gap between client vision and technical delivery — transforming project concepts into accurate designs and costings that drive successful installations.

  • Preparing accurate materials and labour take-offs for a variety of technical projects.
  • Creating and issuing detailed estimates, proposals, and technical submissions.
  • Working closely with Sales and Project Fulfilment teams to evaluate risks and find smart solutions.
  • Reviewing project specs and drawings to produce clear, cost-effective design estimates.
  • Ensuring all designs meet quality, regulatory, and health & safety standards.
  • Producing system renders, wiring diagrams, and schematics for active safety system designs.

What We’re Looking For

  • At least 3 years’ experience in estimating, ideally within electrical or technology-based installations – e.g., CCTV, security systems, Building Services Intelligent transport system providers or similar.
  • A relevant qualification in Engineering, Quantity Surveying, or Construction Management or similar
  • Strong IT skills, including Excel and design tools such as CAD or Revit.
  • Excellent communication and organisational abilities — you’ll be collaborating across teams and with clients.
  • Full UK driving licence (occasional site visits required).
  • CSCS / SMSTS, IOSH or NEBOSH qualifications would be an advantage.

Why Join? You’ll be part of a progressive, tech-driven business that values innovation, collaboration, and precision.
Expect a role where your ideas are valued, your technical skills are developed, and your work directly contributes to the success of projects across the UK.
