Senior Estimator – £1.3bn New Build Hospital Project
Location: Suffolk / Central London (Hybrid)
Rate: £500–£525 per day
IR35 Status: Outside IR35
Contract Opportunity
We are seeking an experienced Senior Estimator to join a leading multinational civil engineering contractor on a landmark £1.3bn new-build hospital development in Suffolk.
This is a fantastic opportunity to become part of one of the UK's most significant healthcare infrastructure projects, working with a major contractor delivering a complex, large-scale scheme.
Initially, the role will be predominantly based from the contractor's central London head office for the first few months, before transitioning to a more flexible hybrid working arrangement.
The Role
As Senior Estimator, you will play a key role in the commercial and estimating function, supporting the development of cost estimates across the initial project phases and subsequent delivery stages.
You will work closely with the wider project, commercial and engineering teams, providing robust estimating expertise, cost planning and commercial input throughout the project lifecycle.
Key responsibilities will include:
*
Leading and coordinating estimating activities across a major healthcare infrastructure project.
*
Preparing, reviewing and developing detailed cost estimates and cost plans.
*
Providing commercial and estimating input during the early project and development phases.
*
Working closely with engineering, procurement and commercial teams to establish accurate cost forecasts.
*
Supporting the assessment of risks, opportunities, quantities and cost drivers.
*
Reviewing subcontractor and supply chain quotations and challenging costs where appropriate.
*
Ensuring estimates are aligned with contractual requirements and project objectives.
*
Supporting the transition between project phases and associated changes in commercial strategy.
Experience Required
We are particularly interested in hearing from Senior Estimators with the following background:
*
Proven experience working as a Senior Estimator on major civil engineering or infrastructure projects.
*
Previous experience on projects valued at £100m+ is highly desirable.
*
Healthcare or hospital project experience is strongly preferred.
*
Strong understanding of NEC contracts, ideally with experience of NEC Option E during the initial project phases and NEC Option C for Phase 2.
*
Experience developing estimates on complex, multi-disciplinary construction or infrastructure schemes.
*
Strong commercial awareness and the ability to work collaboratively with senior project stakeholders.
Project & Working Arrangements
*
Project: £1.3bn New Build Hospital.
*
Location: Suffolk.
*
Initial base: Central London head office for the first few months.
*
Longer-term arrangement: Hybrid working.
*
Contract: Outside IR35.
*
Rate: £500–£525 per day.
The Opportunity
This is an excellent opportunity to join a leading international contractor on a flagship £1.3bn healthcare development, offering exposure to a highly complex, nationally significant project from its early stages through to subsequent phases.
