📍 Home working with occasional office visits (Can be based in Ireland, UK, Netherlands, Germany or Finland)
💼 Permanent
I'm working with a specialist contractor delivering ICT infrastructure on some of Europe's most high-profile data centre projects. Due to continued growth, they're looking to appoint an experienced ICT Estimator to join their commercial team.
This is a home-based role with occasional travel, offering the opportunity to work on hyperscale data centres and other mission-critical ICT projects across Europe.

Working closely with internal teams, suppliers, and clients, you'll play a key role in securing new business and supporting successful project delivery.
Responsibilities
- Prepare accurate cost estimates and tender submissions for ICT and structured cabling projects.
- Review drawings, specifications, and client requirements to develop commercially competitive solutions.
- Obtain and evaluate supplier and subcontractor quotations.
- Identify value engineering opportunities and cost-saving solutions.
- Attend pre- and post-tender meetings with clients and internal stakeholders.
- Produce detailed handover information for the delivery teams.
- Support the development of new business opportunities and maintain strong relationships with suppliers and clients.
- Manage multiple tenders while meeting tight deadlines.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
