As part of the Sales Department, the Technical Estimator’s key responsibilities are to provide accurate cost estimates and technical expertise to their new and existing clients.

* Opportunities for professional growth and development.
* A dynamic and supportive work environment.
* The chance to work with a diverse range of clients and industries.

Who is this role ideal for?
This opportunity would suit an experienced Estimator who has experience in precise engineering and pricing the cost of manufacturing metal components. It’s important you have knowledge of the core services the business offers which are CNC machining, pressing, laser cutting, welding & fabrication and specialist painting. Ideally you will be a specialist in one of these core elements with an understanding of the wider services the business offers.
* Degree in engineering, manufacturing, or equivalent proven experience in a similar sales estimating role within the precision engineering sector.
* Strong understanding of machining, fabrication, welding, pressing, painting, and laser cutting processes.
* Excellent analytical and mathematical skills.
* Proficiency in reading and interpreting technical drawings and specifications.
* Exceptional attention to detail and organisational skills.
* Excellent communication and interpersonal abilities.
* Ability to work independently and as part of a collaborative team.
* Fully conversant in ERP or MRP systems with a complete understanding of manufacturing routes.
* Proficiency in relevant software and tools (e.g., Microsoft Office, CAD software).
What does the hiring process look like?
First off you would have a chat/teams meeting with me, Rachel Scott from Lemon Drizzle Recruitment as I am managing the full recruitment process. Then if you and I believe it’s a good fit I will put you forward to Impress Group and then it would be a face-to-face meeting with their Sales Director in their offices in Ryton.
How do you find out more and apply?
To find out more please contact Rachel Scott at Lemon Drizzle Recruitment. I highly value discretion and all conversations are 100% confidential or to apply click on the link and I’ll be in touch. All applications must be screened my myself.
I’m an independent recruiter so if you don't hear back regarding a specific role, please know that your application isn't forgotten. In line with GDPR I keep all profiles on hand for future opportunities that might be a better match. The best part of my job is helping people advance their careers, whether it's now or later.
