Joinery Estimator

For decades, our client has been the award-winning name behind some of the most stunning and imaginative high-end products for prestigious clients. They don't follow trends; they set them. Specialising in bringing "weird and wonderful" concepts to life, their close-knit team of passionate experts thrives on collaboration and a shared commitment to exceptional craftsmanship. This is your chance to step away from the ordinary and into a role where creativity and precision collide.

The Role:

We are seeking to recruit a passionate and detail-oriented Estimator to become a pivotal part of their growing team. In this role, you will be the crucial link between breathtaking concept designs and their physical realisation. You'll be responsible for producing accurate and competitive costings for incredible, one-of-a-kind bespoke pieces and installation projects across the UK.

This is a fantastic opportunity for an analytical mind who thrives in a fast-paced, creative environment where no two projects are the same.

Key Responsibilities:

• Analyse complex drawings and concept designs to produce comprehensive and accurate cost estimates.
• Meticulously calculate all costs, including materials, labour, subcontractors, and logistics for bespoke project packages.
• Collaborate closely with designers and the sales team via virtual calls to clarify details, suggest value-engineering solutions, and guide clients.
• Prepare robust and clear quotations, ensuring all qualifications and exclusions are meticulously noted.
• Manage the ordering and coordination of material samples for critical client presentations.
• Seamlessly hand over costings to the project delivery team and provide ongoing support throughout the project lifecycle.
• Thrive in a dynamic setting where client needs can evolve, embracing the challenge of ever-changing requirements.

The Person:

You are a proactive problem-solver with a keen eye for detail and a genuine passion for how incredible designs are brought to life.

• 1-2 years of proven experience in an Estimating role.
• A background in, or a strong understanding of, the joinery and/or high-end furniture industry. (This is crucial for understanding the complexities of bespoke fabrication).
• Advanced proficiency in Microsoft Excel is non-negotiable; this is used daily, therefore being an expert is key.
• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the confidence to liaise effectively with designers, clients, and internal teams.
• A positive, flexible, and resilient attitude, with the ability to thrive in a fast-paced and evolving environment.
