Rainbo is one of the UK's leading global procurement service providers, based in Crawley, West Sussex, which is an easy commute from London or the south coast.
We are an SME that tenders for construction projects around the world, our main focus being Africa and the Middle East. Our focus is on infrastructure projects such as building new hospitals, markets, roads, office buildings etc.
We receive RFQs (request for quotations) from prime/sub contractors that we're working with for a wide range of materials e.g. gypsum, windows, pumps, cables, generators (MEP, Civils etc.) hence broad technical understanding is helpful. Once pricing is obtained we enter a competitive bid process in order to try and secure an order. We source and purchase a wide variety of equipment from across the world, but good UK sourcing knowledge is a definite plus.
Who we're looking for:
Good knowledge of the construction industry and suppliers
Broad technical knowledge
Experienced in obtaining price estimates for various packages relating to infrastructure
Able to technically and commercially evaluate bids
Ability to negotiate good terms with potential suppliers
Knowledge of incoterms would be a plus as we ship products across the world
Additional languages such as French would be beneficial
Strong excel skills (bid tabulations, pivot tables, vlookups)
Experience in African or Middle East construction projects a big plus
No professional qualifications required
Please note this is a full time office based role.

Metro Mechanical is expanding, and we are looking to recruit Technical Drainage Estimator to join our PPM Mobilisation Team based at our Gravesend HQ.
We will offer a competitive salary of £35,000+ (depending on experience), a great working culture, 20 days holiday plus bank holidays, employer contribution pension scheme, regular training and career development, personal accident cover, free use of well-equipped private on-site gym, company social events throughout the year and free parking. Working hours: Mon – Fri, 37.5 hours per week.
The Role:
This predominately office-based role involves preparing and developing drainage estimates; producing estimates in compliance with drainage standards and procedures; regular communication with the project clients to ensure delivery and cost effectiveness. There will be occasional requirements to visit client sites for meetings and site reviews when necessary so a full UK Driving licence will be essential.
We are a very customer focused business; therefore, strong communication skills are a key component for this role.
The Ideal Candidate:
Previous experience of working in the Drainage sector, the role would suit someone who has worked as a Drainage Engineer and understands the workings of a drainage map and drainage plumbing or a Surveyor who has undertaken drainage CCTV surveys on commercial sites and has experience in reviewing CCTV footage and compiling full detailed reports.
A good IT knowledge and strong organisational skills will be key for this role.
We will give in-house training, but it will be essential that the successful candidate has knowledge of the drainage industry and terminology.
Our company
Metro Mechanical is the leading commercial drainage company in the UK. We have longstanding relationships with some of the best-known commercial property businesses in the UK and have won multiple awards for our service.
