Senior Electrical Estimator
Overview
Anelec is a growing business working across commercial, industrial and residential sectors, with a strong and expanding focus on renewable energy including solar PV, EV charging infrastructure, battery storage and heat pump integration. As we scale, we need an experienced estimator to take ownership of our tendering function and help drive the business forward.
This is a senior, autonomous role. You'll lead on estimates from enquiry to submission, working closely with engineers, project managers, and the wider commercial team. We're a close\-knit business, and we value people who are engaged with the whole project lifecycle. Alongside estimating, you'll have involvement in supplier relationships, procurement strategy, and commercial oversight of live projects.
If you're an experienced electrical estimator looking for a role where your contribution genuinely shapes the direction of the business, we'd like to hear from you.
