Dear …………,

As a well-qualified Estimator, I was delighted to see your recent vacancy on the Dayjob.com website.

I can provide accurate and professional work estimates, quotations and tenders for both public and private sector clients.

I am a capable operator who has excellent attention to detail, thoroughness, and accuracy when it comes to tender preparation. I have the ability to prepare accurate estimates and tender bids from customers documentation, specifications, and other related information and standards. As per your requirements, I am adept at calculating prices and compiling estimates while working closely with engineers and other key stakeholders.

I will bring energy, passion and a sense of fun to everything I do. However, what I feel really makes me unique is my ability to identify and analyse opportunities that will give a commercial advantage to tenders. I also possess excellent IT and numeracy skills with the ability to work with standard software packages such as Excel.

With my current employer I take briefs from internal stakeholders as well as customers, offer solutions or alternative cost effective ideas and produce accurate estimates to tight deadlines. I oversee the estimating of costs of a planned construction project in terms of the labour, equipment and materials required. As part of my duties, I read blueprints, take measurements and make use of relevant computer software such as Excel, Word and Autodesk DWG TrueView. On a daily basis I will liaise with others including construction managers, planners and design teams.

Through my career I have gained extensive experience and knowledge of current market rates and trends in the construction industry. I have also learnt how to work under pressure and prioritize workloads while maintaining excellent levels of customer service.

On a personal level I am a perfectionist who is always checking my own work to ensure the highest levels of accuracy in my calculations. Furthermore, I possess the communication skills needed to represent a company during customer site visits to hold pre-start meetings, site handovers and discuss job progress. I find it easy to communicate effectively with both technical and non- technical clients.

Right now, I would like to join an exciting, profitable and growing company like yours who put social responsibility at the heart of everything it does. With this in mind, please feel free to review my attached CV and invite me to an interview at a time and place of your choosing. Should you find interest in my application, then I will be available for an interview at your convenience.
