Senior Electrical Estimator — Up to £100k + Package
London Projects | Tier 1 Contractor Environment
I’m working with a well-established main contractor delivering complex projects across London, and they’re looking to appoint a Senior Electrical Estimator to strengthen their pre-construction team.
This isn’t a “pricing from drawings in isolation” role.
They want someone commercially sharp, technically credible, and confident engaging with delivery teams — someone who understands how M&E packages are actually built, not just costed.
You’ll be working on a mix of major commercial, healthcare, life sciences, and complex refurbishment schemes across London, typically ranging from £10m – £150m+ project values.
The Role
Leading electrical estimating packages from tender enquiry through to final submission
Producing detailed cost plans, take-offs, and pricing strategies
Reviewing specifications, drawings, and employer’s requirements
Liaising with supply chain to obtain competitive quotations
Working closely with pre-construction, commercial, and technical services teams
Identifying value engineering opportunities and risk allowances
Supporting bid presentations and client engagement where required
This is a senior position with genuine influence over project wins — not just number crunching.
What They’re Looking For
Ideal backgrounds include:
Electrical Estimator within a main contractor or M&E contractor
Experience pricing projects in the £5m – £30m+ MEP range
Strong understanding of electrical systems (LV, HV, lighting, containment, BMS integration etc.)
Ability to interpret technical information and challenge designs commercially
Stable career history with credible employers
Comfortable working within a collaborative pre-construction environment
Senior-level candidates or strong Estimators ready to step up will both be considered.
Salary & Package
Up to £100,000 base salary
Car allowance / travel allowance
Bonus
Private healthcare
Pension
Genuine progression into Pre-Construction leadership
Why This Role
Long-term pipeline of secured London projects
Strong reputation for delivering technically complex schemes
Stable business with repeat clients
Clear career progression pathway
Supportive senior leadership team
The Reality
The hiring manager isn’t looking for someone who just sends prices back.
They want someone who:
Understands delivery
Thinks commercially
Challenges assumptions
Adds value to bids
Takes ownership
