Senior Estimator

Job description

Estimator – Fit-out Construction

Glasgow

£50-60k + Car & Benefits

A growing and well respected fit-out contractor is looking to appoint an Estimator who wants to be more than a number in a big machine.

Based in Glasgow, they specialise in small commercial office fit‑outs, healthcare and education projects, and a wide range of fast‑paced refurbishment projects across Scotland. If you enjoy variety, ownership, and being close to the action, this is the role.

You’ll be joining a tight‑knit, ambitious team where your work directly shapes the success of each project. This isn’t a siloed estimating role — you’ll be a key member of the business, influencing decisions, improving processes, and helping drive growth. For the right person, there’s a clear path into a more senior position as the business continues to expand.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Producing accurate, commercially sound estimates for small‑to‑medium fit‑out and refurbishment projects
• Working closely with Directors, Project Managers and supply chain partners to build competitive, well‑structured tenders
• Reviewing drawings, specifications and site information to prepare detailed take‑offs
• Managing supplier and subcontractor pricing, ensuring best value and reliable delivery
• Supporting bid submissions, client proposals and cost planning
• Contributing to continuous improvement across estimating, procurement and project handover

What We’re Looking For

• Experience estimating within fit‑out, interiors, small works, or general construction
• Strong understanding of materials, trades, and supply chain relationships
• Ability to read drawings, interpret specifications and build accurate cost models
• A proactive, organised mindset — someone who enjoys taking ownership
• Confidence communicating with clients, designers, and subcontractors
• Ambition to grow into a senior role as the business scales

In return, you will receive:

• A genuinely influential role in a growing interiors business
• Exposure to a wide range of projects across commercial and healthcare sectors
• Support to develop into a Senior Estimator position
• A collaborative, down‑to‑earth team who value quality and reliability
• Competitive salary and benefits, aligned with experience
