Support procurement with pricing analysis and benchmarking across suppliers.
Act as the escalation point for supplier invoicing discrepancies.
Contribute to development of procurement strategies and cost reduction initiatives.
Report to the Residential Operations Manager, delivering regular updates, cost projections, forecasting, and strategic insights to support business planning and operational decision-making.

What are we looking for?

Previous experience leading an estimating function or managing a team within a residential construction environment.
Demonstrated experience in performance management, succession planning and team development.
Experience as a Residential Construction Estimator in a high-volume business.

Being a crucial part of a team that values your feedback, contributions, and supports your growth and development
Permanent full-time role with flexible start/finish times
A company experiencing massive growth and career opportunities for the team
Flare Retail discounts, subsidised Fitness Passport membership and corporate uniform allowance
