Estimator – Joinery (Essex)

Hook (open with this):

• “Office-based estimator role working on bespoke joinery packages, £45–55k, proper pipeline of work—not just pricing ghost jobs.”

What they’ll actually be doing:

• Pricing high-end joinery packages from drawings (not guesswork, proper take-offs)
• Working closely with delivery team → visibility of projects, not siloed
• Some client exposure + London meetings (keeps it commercial, not just sat behind a screen)

Why it’s a good move:

• Stable, established business (not firefighting / chaotic pricing)
• Clear scope – estimator role, not being dragged into PM/design
• Decent salary band for pure estimating in joinery
• Long-term benefits (pension, healthcare, increasing holiday)

Who it suits best:

• Someone already pricing joinery who wants less chaos / more structure
• Or a number 2 estimator wanting ownership of packages

Watch-outs (be upfront):

• Fully office-based
• Needs to be confident reading drawings + doing take-offs properly
• Some client interaction expected
