Looking for more responsibility and the chance to make a real impact?
We’re looking for an experienced Estimator / Senior Estimator to join a well-established, privately owned Civil Engineering and Building Contractor based in Derby.
This is a great opportunity to join a successful business delivering a diverse range of projects across the Energy, Industrial and Commercial sectors, with work spanning across the UK.
