Marketing will organise all elements for the presentation and will arrange a prior meeting with all personnel to be involved. Generally, an Estimator will be present and will be expected to present and answer questions on the cost of all works (Surveyors will not be present unless specifically requested).

    Post-tender meetings

    • Meet with the Client team to carry out value engineering exercises if necessary liaising with the relevant internal departments and suppliers and/or sub-contractors as appropriate.

    • Take responsibility for ensuring tender is delivered to the appropriate place on time, in most cases by enlisting the Marketing and/or Admin Departments Assistance.
    • It is expected that a number of reports will be provided on a monthly basis, i.e. tenders submitted and their outcome, together with various other individual reports as requested.
    • The role will pick up other duties and responsibilities as the company grows and expands.
