My client works across aluminium glazing and façade packages, including curtain walling, windows, doors, shop fronts and wider commercial glazing systems. They operate across design, manufacture and installation, supporting projects from early enquiry through to delivery.

The role This is a junior-level Estimator role, but it is not entry level.
My client needs someone who already has some experience within structural aluminium. Additional experience with glazing, fenestration, curtain walling, windows and doors, or a similar construction-related environment would also be beneficial.
The key requirement is software experience. Applicants must have experience using at least one of the following:
LogiKal
Technal
ReynaPro
The role will be based fully from the office / site as required, so this will not suit someone looking for remote or hybrid working.

Liaising with internal design, manufacturing and project teams
Helping ensure quotes are accurate, clear and commercially sensible
Supporting the wider estimating team as you continue to develop
Data entry from on-the-ground estimations into company software
What my client is looking for Experience in estimating, pricing, processing or technical support within aluminium glazing, windows, doors, curtain walling or fenestration
Experience using LogiKal, Technal or ReynaPro
Ability to read drawings or willingness to develop further in this area
Good attention to detail
Strong numerical skills
Organised and reliable approach
Good communication skills
Willingness to learn and develop within the aluminium / façade sector
The type of person who'll do well This would suit someone who is still relatively early in their career, but already has enough industry knowledge to understand aluminium systems and estimating software.
You might currently be working as an Estimator, Junior Estimator, Order Processor, Technical Assistant, Design Assistant or similar within an aluminium glazing or fenestration business.
My client is not looking for the finished article, but they do need someone who can bring relevant software experience and a solid understanding of the sector.

Office / site-based position
Opportunity to develop within a specialist aluminium contractor
Exposure to curtain walling, windows, doors and wider façade packages
