Lead Cost Estimator

2 months ago

Scotland, United Kingdom Robertson Group Full time

Overview

Expertise. Commitment. Momentum. We perceive more than just agreements.

Position: Lead Cost Estimator

Location: Edinburgh

Challenges. Prospects. Solutions. At Robertson Group, we view them through our unique lens. We are audacious enough to inquire. Courageous enough to approach matters differently. Confident enough to express our true selves. By joining us, you will become part of the UK's largest family-owned construction, infrastructure, and support services organization. As a Lead Cost Estimator, you will contribute to a team that is achieving remarkable outcomes - for ourselves, for the built environment, and for a genuinely sustainable future.

Your New Role

Role Overview

As a Lead Cost Estimator, your responsibilities will include:

  • Collaborating with the operational management team and providing guidance on all matters related to Contract and Commercial concerns.
  • Maintaining precise financial control systems and reporting monthly on Cost/Value Reconciliation.
  • Advising on all financial aspects of contracts, ensuring that valuations are optimized, certified, and disbursed punctually.
  • Overseeing site progress and taking the initiative to issue necessary notices in line with contract protocols and timelines.
  • Preparing forecasts of costs and values for all trades, including Preliminaries, and monitoring and reporting on the same.
  • Developing Preliminaries budgets in collaboration with contract personnel, and monitoring and reporting on the same.
  • Ensuring that all quotations are thoroughly reviewed and adhere to specifications, securing the most competitive bids.
  • Facilitating regular meetings to agree on variations rather than leaving them until the final account stage.
  • Effectively managing subcontractor accounts to enhance contract performance.
  • Supporting the Operations Team as needed, securing labor, materials, and subcontractors to ensure timely and budget-compliant contract completion.
  • Ensuring that all work is conducted in accordance with the Company's Health and Safety Policy & Quality Manual.

About You

You will already possess qualifications and experience in this domain, with a background in budget management and delivering comparable services to a high standard. Demonstrable experience in Quantity Surveying within a relevant sector of the construction industry is essential. Equally important are strong communication, negotiation, and analytical skills, along with a genuine ability to establish realistic objectives and address key challenges.

What We Offer

Working the Robertson Way

Joining us is not just about sharing our perspective; it’s also about embodying the Robertson Way by bringing our five guiding principles to life. Here’s what that entails:

We Listen

Listening allows us to work positively and collaboratively, assuring customers, partners, and colleagues that their voices are always acknowledged.

We Are Professional

Our blend of prudence, diligence, and attention to detail ensures our customers have certainty and trust in our delivery.

We Take Responsibility

Each of us is accountable for our actions. From the smallest detail to team safety and caring for our communities and environment, we recognize that everything matters.

We Are Determined to Succeed

Every challenge presents an opportunity. We collaborate and focus on safety, productivity, and quality to find solutions we can be proud of, providing a positive, lasting impact.

We Are One Team

We operate as one - within our teams, partnerships, and with our customers. We respect every contribution, and everyone stands up to be counted. We are Team Robertson.

In return, we provide a comprehensive range of rewards and benefits, including 33 days of annual leave, an excellent pension plan, and valuable life assurance. Additionally, you will have access to a variety of fantastic extras, such as our Cycle to Work Scheme, discounts at restaurants and cinemas with a Taste Card, annual flu vaccinations, and Health & Wellbeing and Life Management Support for you and your family.

We also have an outstanding smarter working policy, allowing many of our office-based and some site-based personnel to work from home or participate in a hybrid model.

When it comes to diversity and inclusion, we embrace a different perspective at Robertson. We are dedicated to fostering an environment where everyone feels welcome and can be their authentic selves. We encourage applications from individuals of all races, ages, genders, religions, sexual orientations, and more - so whoever you are, we hope you will share our vision as well.
