  • Work closely with the bid team to ensure the tender submission is complete, competitive, and in line with client expectations.


Cost Analysis & Value Engineering:

  • Identify and propose cost-saving opportunities without compromising on quality or compliance.
  • Evaluate supplier and subcontractor quotes to ensure best value for money while meeting project specifications.
  • Propose innovative solutions to meet budgetary constraints or improve project profitability.


Collaboration & Stakeholder Management:

  • Liaise with project managers, engineers, and other stakeholders to gather information and clarify project needs.
  • Work closely with procurement teams to source materials and secure competitive pricing from suppliers.
  • Attend pre-tender meetings with clients, providing expert input on technical requirements and project scopes.
  • Maintain strong relationships with clients, suppliers, and subcontractors throughout the bidding process.


Project Handover:

  • Ensure a smooth handover of successful bids to the project management and delivery teams, providing clarity on project budgets, costings, and scope.
  • Assist the project team with variations and change orders as necessary, ensuring accurate costing of any project amendments.


Market Research & Competitiveness:

  • Stay updated on market trends, material costs, and competitor pricing to ensure bids are competitive and commercially viable.
  • Benchmark against similar projects and update pricing models as necessary to reflect current market conditions.


Compliance & Standards:

  • Ensure all estimates adhere to industry standards, building regulations, and client-specific requirements.
  • Be familiar with electrical design and installations in compliance with BS7671 Wiring Regulations and other industry codes relevant to airport projects.


Skills and Experience Required:


Experience:

  • Minimum 3-5 years of experience in electrical estimating within the building services industry.
  • Proven track record of tendering on projects, preferably within airports, infrastructure, or high-security environments.
  • Experience with M&E projects valued at multi-million-pound levels.


Qualifications:

  • Ideally NVQ Level 2 or higher in Electrical Installation or related field.
  • Proficiency in industry-standard estimating software (e.g., Amtech, Trimble, or similar).
  • Strong understanding of UK electrical regulations, including 18th Edition Wiring Regulations.


Skills:

  • Exceptional attention to detail and accuracy in preparing cost estimates and bids.
  • Strong analytical and numerical skills, with the ability to assess detailed drawings and specifications.
  • Excellent communication and negotiation skills to work with suppliers, clients, and internal teams.
  • Ability to manage multiple projects and meet tight deadlines in a fast-paced environment.
  • Familiarity with working in highly regulated environments, with experience in airport projects being a distinct advantage but not essential.
