The role of a Senior Estimator will be taking responsibility for leading best practice estimation, often with respect to large and complex infrastructure commissions covering both private and public sector clients.

You'll play a vital role in delivering Commercial/ Estimation commissions for our clients.

As a Senior Consultant, you will need to be flexible and able to adapt to different client requirements at short notice including working remotely, and happy to travel both throughout the UK and abroad in the pursuit of successful delivery. Travel may at times be frequent and could require time away from your base location.

**Your responsibilities will include**:
+ Development of the best in class estimation process and working with other sector leads and commercial leads in this space to enhance the offering around value optimisation.

+ Development of estimates and alignment with wider practices such as carbon and inherent risk etc for added value.

+ Able to lead the quantum assessment of projects and optioneering/ value engineering solutions.

+ Lead in the build up of rates based on known factors and aligned with market factors.

+ Support in the development of budgets, baselines and forecasts and in inherent risk and contingency development.

+ Identification of process improvement opportunities.

+ Interfacing and engagement with project staff including cost, commercial and controls.

+ Management of stakeholders and their expectations through regular communications.

+ Supporting the production of close-out reports.

+ Presentation of outputs and recommendations to clients and their supply chain.

+ Lead engagements when travelling to different sites/locations nationally and internationally.

+ Mentoring junior staff and upskilling both internal and external stakeholders in the arena of cost and commercial assurance.

**Your knowledge, experience and skills need to include**:
+ Demonstrated ability to lead a sector for estimation (energy, water, rail etc) would be highly desired.

+ Demonstrable experience of delivering service excellence to clients.

+ Excellent communication skills both verbal and written.

+ Experience in delivering cost and commercial activities.

+ Strong report writing and presentation skills.

+ Ability to work autonomously and in fast-paced environment, and able to adapt and meet challenges as they develop during the delivery stage

+ Strong interpersonal skills will be required to communicate
