Job Description

We are Two


Two provides tenants and office occupiers with a complete package for all their relocation and refurbishment needs. Our work has received global recognition, winning some of the most prestigious awards in our industry within the UK and internationally.


We are a business of high integrity and mutual respect. We don’t believe in hierarchy; instead, we empower you to do your best work. In an industry that often puts profit above all else, our priorities are different: happy clients and pride in our work.


Many of the extraordinary people here have been colleagues for ten years or more; our staff turnover rate is among the lowest in the sector. At Two, we are creators, dreamers, and problem solvers. Our commitment to excellence extends beyond our projects, reflected in our B-Corp accreditation. As a B-Corp accredited company, we operate with a heightened sense of purpose and responsibility towards society and the environment.


Your focus will be on...

Project Planning and Coordination:

  • Conduct site assessments and feasibility studies to understand project constraints and identify potential risks.

Cost Estimation and Value Engineering:

  • Prepare detailed project cost estimates and budgets, ensuring accuracy and alignment with client expectations.
  • Conduct value engineering to maximise quality while minimising costs without compromising design integrity.
  • Collaborate with suppliers, subcontractors, and project teams to achieve cost-effective solutions.

Bid Preparation and Management:

  • Lead the bid preparation process, gathering information, coordinating with internal departments, and submitting competitive proposals.
  • Review tender documents, specifications, and drawings to determine project requirements and identify potential challenges.
  • Liaise with clients and stakeholders to clarify pre-construction details and manage expectations.

Risk Assessment and Mitigation:

  • Identify, assess, and mitigate pre-construction risks related to cost, scheduling, and client requirements.
  • Develop and implement risk management strategies, working closely with project managers and stakeholders to mitigate potential issues.

Client Engagement and Communication:

  • Establish strong relationships with clients, acting as their primary contact during the pre-construction phase.
  • Maintain clear and proactive communication with clients, providing regular updates and addressing any queries or concerns.
  • Ensure high levels of client satisfaction by understanding and managing their expectations from project initiation.

Collaboration and Team Leadership:

  • Work closely with internal teams, including design, commercial, and project management, to ensure a cohesive approach to pre-construction.
  • Provide guidance and support to junior team members and foster a collaborative team culture.
  • Promote an innovative and positive work environment, aligning with Two’s values.


Qualifications and Skills Required:

  • Bachelor’s degree in Construction Management, Quantity Surveying, or a related field.
  • 5+ years of experience in pre-construction or estimating roles within the Design & Build sector.
  • Proven track record in project planning, cost estimation, and bid management for commercial projects.
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with a keen attention to detail.
  • Excellent client-facing skills with the ability to manage relationships and communicate effectively.
  • Solid understanding of UK building regulations, industry standards, and compliance requirements.
  • Proficiency in pre-construction and project management software (e.g., AutoCAD, MS Project) and Microsoft Office Suite.
  • Knowledge of B-Corp values or sustainable construction practices is a plus.


What We Offer

  • Competitive Salary: £45-50k per annum, dependent on experience.

  • Generous Annual Leave: 26 days + bank holidays.
  • Death in Service benefit.
