Estimator - CNC Machining

Ready to move off the shop floor and into a client-facing, commercially rewarding role? We’re looking for a CNC-savvy professional—ideally someone with a background in programming or machining—who’s ready to take the next step into estimating and account management. If you understand how components are made and want to apply that knowledge in a dynamic, customer-focused environment, this could be your perfect move.

As an Estimator & Account Manager, you’ll play a pivotal role in managing a significant portion of our order book. You’ll be responsible for:

• Preparing accurate, commercially sound quotes based on customer drawings and specifications

• Advising clients on manufacturability, design tweaks, and production efficiency

• Building long-term relationships with customers, ensuring repeat business and mutual success

• Supporting onboarding of new clients and contributing to continuous improvement across the team

• Balancing technical insight with commercial awareness to minimise risk and maximise value

This is a hybrid role—part technical, part relationship-driven—perfect for someone who’s ready to step away from the machine and into a broader business role.

• Solid understanding of CNC machining, ideally from a programming or hands-on background

• Strong attention to detail and a methodical approach to quoting and customer support

• Excellent communication skills and a collaborative mindset

• A proactive attitude and commitment to personal development

• Commercial awareness and a genuine interest in helping customers succeed

If you’ve been thinking about moving into a front-end role but weren’t sure how to make the leap, we’ll support your transition with training and mentoring. Many of our team have made the same journey—and thrived.

• Competitive salary—tell us what you’re looking for, and we’ll talk

• Profit-related bonus scheme

• 34 days pro-rata annual leave (including statutory holidays) plus your birthday off

• Supportive, forward-thinking team environment

• Company sickness scheme and contributory pension (subject to criteria)

• Death in Service life assurance

• Monday–Thursday: 7:30am–5:00pm (30-minute lunch)

• Friday: 7:30am–12:30pm
