Description
Working within the estimating team under the support and supervision of a dedicated
mentor you will learn the
tasks involved within the estimating process.
WHAT YOU WILL DO IN THE SHORT TERM
- Initially you will spend time learning about the products and services we offer.
- When you are confident with the products we offer, you will be shown how to review drawings
provided by customers. We will teach you how to read architects plans, engineer’s foundations
and levels drawings, steel work details and other relevant technical drawings. You will also be
shown how to identify relevant sections of building specifications.
- Once confident with reviewing drawings, you’ll be shown how to collate quotations, using our
bespoke computer software, Excel and Blue Beam mark-up, from here you will start to complete
your own quotations under the guidance of a mentor.
- You will also attend college on day release to broaden your knowledge and skillset.
WHAT YOU WILL DO IN THE LONGER TERM
- As you become more experienced in the role, you will be responsible for producing and
managing multiple quotations whilst also learning how to convert an enquiry to an order.
This will involve customer liaison along with sales and negotiation. Whilst still supported you
will have less reliance on your mentor.
- You will also be introduced to other areas of the department with involvement in design,
planning and production to broaden your overall knowledge.
