Having worked with them for the past 15+ years, I have seen them develop in both size and capability over this time. They currently turnover above £100 million per annum, building concrete frame and groundwork packages ranging in value up to £40 million each for a variety of residential and commercial contractors and developers throughout London and the surrounding Home Counties. They have a very modern edge to the business while maintaining traditional roots, and are without doubt one of the best firms in this sector. Each of the directors are excellent in their own right, but what I love about this business is the harmony between them as a collective, as they work together towards the common goals, with no politics, no hot-headed individuals, and a real balance. Not every business has that, and you can feel that harmony when you spend time with any of them.\nOn a personal note, I believe this company is one of the best not only for the projects they help complete but also because of the environment they create for the people who work there. They go that extra mile to not only retain their staff but to truly keep them happy to be with the business. Small things have been added to the office, like a gym that people have access to all day, with extra half an hour breaks given three times a week for anyone who wants to use it. They have a treatment room where massages and cosmetic treatments are available to everyone on Fridays, free of charge. And to top it all off, they have a rooftop garden and BBQ area for staff to use! I’d want to work here myself if I had the relevant experience in this role!

Usual package values you will be expected to target will range from £5m up to £30m each, with some projects going above this and some or all of the following duties:\n Preparation of tender submissions\n Measuring and take-offs from drawings\n Producing bills-of-quantities\n Cost Planning\n Pre and post-contract meetings with clients\n Build-up of tender price from first principles based on plans, programme and scope of works\nAbout the Requirements:\nFor this role, I am looking for someone who has previous experience working for an RC Frame or Groundwork subcontractor in the UK in an estimating capacity. It is important that you have the knowledge of pricing and producing tenders for Concrete Frame and Groundwork packages in and around the South East and London to be considered. That is it.\nAbout the Salary / Remuneration:\nDue to the nature of this role, I am looking to target candidates currently earning anywhere from £80,000 to £120,000 per annum (self-employed options are available, as well as PAYE).\nSalaries/rates will be negotiable at the point of interview, depending on the level of experience.\nWith the basic salary, our client offers the usual package of car allowance and benefits, plus they offer an annual bonus to all staff.\nHow to Apply:\nI am more than happy to discuss this opportunity with people over the phone or face-to-face in a fully confidential manner. This is an incestuous sector, and I fully understand the importance of keeping things discrete.\nAlternatively, it would be ideal to see a copy of your CV to understand your previous experience and employment. In line with GDPR, nothing will be done with your CV/details until we have discussed the role in detail anyway, but having gained an understanding of your formal past, this may help when we come to talk and discuss the option.\nEither way, my contact details are listed below:\nEmail: Andrew @ cityscape ltd .com\nTel: (phone number removed)\nAbout Me and How I Work:\nI have over 20 years’ experience in civil engineering & construction recruitment.
