Emerton Roofing (Western) Limited is a fourth-generation family roofing business based in Nantwich, Cheshire. Established over 100 years ago, we are nationally recognised for the quality of our work and have built our reputation by carrying out some of the regions finest roofing projects.
We are looking to welcome the next member of our long-established team – an experienced Slater & Tiler who takes genuine pride in producing first-class roofing work and is looking for a long-term career with a respected family business.
This is a permanent, full-time PAYE position offering a 40-hour working week, Monday to Friday, with Saturday overtime available at company discretion. We offer 29 days' paid holiday (including Bank Holidays) together with competitive pay based on experience and ability.
Why join Emerton Roofing?
Many of our workforce have been with us for years, and some for decades. In fact, more than a dozen members of our team have over 10 years' service, with around half of those having worked with us for more than 25 years. We believe that's because we provide steady work, treat people fairly and create an environment where skilled roofers can enjoy their trade.
Our roofers are able to concentrate on roofing. We organise the quotations, customer liaison, materials, transport and scheduling, allowing our craftsmen to focus on producing first-class work before finishing at a sensible time each day.
Our work is varied and rewarding. We do not carry out repetitive new-build site work. Instead, you'll be working on residential renovations, period properties, estate maintenance and heritage buildings, often in attractive rural locations throughout the region. Every project is different and offers the opportunity to produce roofing work to a standard you can be proud of.
About the role
We're looking for an experienced craftsman who shares our passion for producing first-class slating, tiling and leadwork.
Our projects predominantly involve the renovation of residential buildings. As a company renowned nationwide for excellence in heritage roofing, it's important that applicants are confident working with:
Random and sized Welsh slate
Handmade clay tiles
Leadwork
Traditional pitched roofing materials
Not every project is a heritage building. Our work ranges from estate maintenance and period homes to individual domestic properties and commercial buildings providing plenty of variety throughout the year.
Experience in timber repairs or brickwork would be advantageous but is not essential.
The successful applicant will start and finish each working day from our Nantwich depot, where a company works van (not for private use), materials and an assistant will be provided. A full UK driving licence is preferred but is not essential.
Above all, we're looking for someone who takes pride in their workmanship, is dependable, works well with others and wants to become part of a company for the long term.
If you're looking for secure, permanent employment with a respected family business where quality workmanship is genuinely valued, we'd be pleased to hear from you.

Thank you for your interest. We look forward to receiving your application.

THE ROLE: ASSISTANT ESTIMATOR THE COMPANY: I am currently recruiting on behalf of a highly respected Tier 1 Main Contractor with an outstanding reputation across the South Coast. The business has built a strong name for delivering high-quality construction projects, from medium-sized developments through to some of the region's largest and most recognisable schemes, with current project values reaching up to 60 million. With a regional turnover in excess of 120 million, they have the financial strength and project pipeline of a major contractor, while retaining the close-knit culture and strong team environment that has resulted in exceptionally low staff turnover across the region. Their success is built around the quality of their people, and they have developed one of the strongest training and career development programmes in the UK construction industry.

This is an opportunity to join a business at an exciting point in its growth, working alongside an experienced estimating team and gaining exposure to a diverse range of projects. The role would suit an Assistant Estimator currently working for a main contractor who is ready to take the next step in their career, or an Estimator working for a specialist contractor who is looking to make the move into main contracting.

THE ROLE: Working as part of the estimating team, you will be involved in the preparation of tenders and estimates across a variety of construction projects. You will work closely with the wider commercial and pre-construction teams, gaining valuable experience across the full estimating process. You will have the opportunity to: Assist with the preparation of tenders and detailed estimates. Review drawings, specifications and tender documentation. Obtain and analyse subcontractor and supplier quotations. Assist with take-offs, pricing and cost analysis. Liaise with subcontractors, suppliers and the wider project team. Develop your understanding of construction costs and commercial risk. Work towards taking responsibility for your own tenders as your experience develops. THE CANDIDATE The company is open to candidates from a number of backgrounds. You may currently be: An Assistant Estimator within a main contractor looking to progress. An Estimator with a specialist subcontractor looking to move into main contracting. A construction professional with relevant commercial experience who is looking to develop a career in estimating. You will ideally have experience within the construction industry and a genuine desire to develop your estimating career. More importantly, you will need to be driven, commercially aware and keen to learn. WHY JOIN? This is a particularly good opportunity for someone who is serious about building a long-term career in estimating. You will be joining an established Tier 1 contractor with a strong order book, major projects, excellent staff retention and a proven track record of developing people from within. If you are looking for a company that will invest in your development, give you exposure to major construction projects and provide a genuine opportunity for career progression, I would be very interested in speaking with you.
