Job Overview
Voodoo DesignWorks is a creative signs and graphics company based near Aztec West, North Bristol.
We design, manufacture and install all kinds of signage and graphics for some amazing brands, businesses and destinations across the UK.
We’re looking for an Estimator to join our team and help turn great ideas and creative briefs into well-planned, properly costed projects.
This isn’t just a job about sitting behind a spreadsheet. Every project that comes through Voodoo is different. One day you may be costing a straightforward graphics installation, the next working out how we’re going to manufacture, transport and install a huge 3D printed, gold mirror coated disco ball banana (yes it was a real project) or something equally creative that’s never been made before.
You’ll be responsible for understanding project briefs, assessing materials, manufacturing methods, installation requirements and timings, gathering supplier costs and ultimately putting together accurate, considered quotations.
Experience within signage, graphics, print, manufacturing or a similar industry would highly beneficial. We’re equally as keen in finding someone with the right mindset.
You’ll best suit this role if you’re:
Organised and methodical
Good with numbers and detail
Naturally curious about how things are made
Comfortable asking questions when something doesn’t make sense
Able to think creatively when a project isn’t straightforward
Calm and consistent when things get busy
Someone who takes pride in getting things right
You’ll be joining a friendly, experienced team of designers, project managers and makers who genuinely care about the work we produce. We’re big enough to work on some fantastic projects, but small enough that everyone has an important part to play in making them happen.
We offer a competitive salary, company profit share, holidays and a comfortable, creative working environment where you’ll have plenty of opportunity to learn and develop.
Interested?
Send us your CV, but we’d also like to hear a little bit about you. Include a covering letter that tells us, in your own words, what you’re about, what you’re good at and what you’re hoping to achieve next. It doesn’t need to be a formal covering letter. We’d much rather hear from the person behind the CV.
