Estimator – Fabrication & Machining

Salary: Competitive, depending on experience

Ashland Engineering Ltd is looking to recruit an experienced and commercially aware Estimator with a strong background in fabrication and machining.

This is an important role within the business. We are looking for someone who understands how to assess enquiries properly, interpret drawings and specifications, price work accurately, protect margin, and help convert opportunities into profitable jobs.

The ideal person will already have several years of estimating experience within an engineering, fabrication, machining, or manufacturing environment and will be confident dealing with customer enquiries from initial review through to quotation and handover into production.

The Role

You will be responsible for reviewing incoming enquiries, assessing technical and commercial requirements, preparing accurate and competitive quotations, and supporting the smooth handover of accepted jobs into production.

You will work closely with sales, design support, and production to ensure quotes are commercially sound, technically clear, and aligned with the company’s capabilities.

Key Responsibilities

Review incoming enquiries for fabrication, machining, and general engineering work
Interpret customer drawings, specifications, and technical information
Prepare accurate costings for labour, materials, subcontract processes, machining, fabrication, finishing, and bought-out items
Assess manufacturability and highlight any missing or unclear information before quoting
Liaise with customers where required to clarify scope, specifications, quantities, lead times, and commercial details
Produce clear, professional, and commercially sound quotations
Ensure margin is properly understood and protected on every quote
Work with internal teams where design input is needed to support complex enquiries
Revise quotations where scope, quantities, or specifications change
Track quote status and support follow-up where needed
Prepare clear handover information for production once jobs are won
Help improve estimating systems, quote turnaround times, and pricing accuracy over time

What We Are Looking For

Several years of experience as an Estimator within fabrication, machining, general engineering, sheet metal, or manufacturing
Strong experience pricing both fabrication jobs and machining jobs
Experience working from engineering drawings, customer specifications, and technical documents
Good understanding of materials, processes, labour content, subcontract operations, and production methods
Strong commercial awareness with the ability to balance competitiveness and profitability
Ability to identify risks, missing details, and pricing assumptions before quotes are issued
Excellent attention to detail and strong numerical ability
Good communication skills and confidence dealing with both customers and internal teams
Organised and able to manage multiple enquiries at different stages
Strong IT skills and confidence using estimating, MRP, ERP, or job management software
A practical understanding of how estimated jobs move into production

Desirable

Experience in a fabrication and machining environment
Experience with CNC, welded fabrications, structural or bespoke metalwork, assemblies, and subcontract processes
Experience working with MRP or production planning systems
Experience helping improve quote processes, handovers, and commercial systems
Ability to support continuous improvement in estimating accuracy and turnaround times

The Person

We are looking for someone who is:

commercially strong
technically competent
reliable and organised
proactive
confident under pressure
able to work closely with sales and production
serious about quality, accuracy, and protecting margin

You should be the type of person who can look at an enquiry, understand what is needed, ask the right questions, and turn it into a well-structured quotation that gives the business the best chance of winning profitable work.

Why Join Ashland Engineering Ltd?

This is a great opportunity to join a growing engineering business where your work will have a direct impact on the workflow and growth.

You will play a key role in helping the business win the right type of work, improve quote quality, and support the smooth transition of jobs from enquiry to production.

To Apply

Please apply with your CV and email your CV to [email protected] and include a short note outlining your experience in estimating fabrication and machining work.

Candidates without relevant estimating experience in engineering, fabrication, or machining are unlikely to be considered.

Pay: £37,000.00-£60,000.00 per year

Benefits:

Free parking
On-site parking

Work Location: In person
