Most estimating roles stop at the quotation this one doesn't. You'll be involved from the customer conversation through to quotation and helping secure the order. If you've built your career within fasteners and enjoy the customer side as much as the technical side, keep reading. As a Technical Sales Estimator, you understand that winning business starts before an order is placed. It begins with speaking with the customer. Understanding the requirement. Knowing the products. Calculating costs. Giving customers confidence that what you've quoted is right. This isn't a sales role where somebody else does the technical work and it isn't an estimating role hidden away from customers it's a blend of both. As Technical Sales Estimator, you'll be speaking with customers, estimating costs and securing business through your technical understanding of fasteners and associated products. That's why fasteners industry experience is important. The product range is extensive and the ability to understand specifications and cost accurately will make a difference from day one. Because as Technical Sales Estimator, you'll own the enquiry from the moment that phone call comes in. You'll be the person understanding what the customer needs, putting together the costing, answering questions and keeping things moving until a decision is made. It's not about producing a quotation and moving onto the next one. It's about seeing the opportunity through. The Managing Director has been with the business for 24 years and started his career in sales, so you'll be joining a team led by somebody who understands both the technical and commercial side of the industry. You'll work alongside experienced people who know the products, the customers and the fasteners market inside out. What they're looking for now is to add to the Sales team someone like you, who knows the industry and can bring their fasteners experience, commercial awareness and customer focus to the table. The business is doing well and continues to invest in the sales team because they know growth comes from having the right people speaking with customers every day. You'll probably already be working in estimating, internal sales or technical sales within the fasteners industry. You might be producing quotations and costings every day but want more involvement in the customer side of the process or perhaps you're already speaking with customers and managing enquiries but are looking for a role where your industry knowledge can be used more commercially, with exposure to a wider range of products. Your product knowledge is important and so is the costing experience you'll already have that. What matters just as much is your personality, your communication skills and the drive to turn opportunities into orders. As Technical Sales Estimator, you'll bring: - Fasteners industry experience - Estimating/Costing experience - Good communication skills - The ability to build customer relationships In return, your salary will be between £50,000-£70,000 depending on experience. Whilst there isn't a commission structure attached to the role, the package reflects the level of experience and commercial responsibility you'll bring, with a strong basic salary and an attractive year-end bonus that recognises performance. The hours are Monday to Thursday 8:30am-5:30pm, with an early finish at 3pm on Fridays. Alongside that you'll receive: - 23 days holiday plus bank holidays and your Birthday off! - The opportunity to carve your career within a supportive team If you're a Technical Sales Estimator who enjoys combining fasteners knowledge, costing expertise and customer relationships, this could be worth exploring. This role is exclusive to Marshall Harmony - you won't be contacted by any third parties. If you'd like more info or want to talk it through, just drop us a message, tag someone who'd be perfect for this below or send your CV to the email above. By submitting my CV, I acknowledge and accept that Marshall Harmony will collect and process my personal information for recruitment purposes and will retain it for a minimum of 24 months in accordance with their Privacy Policy and T&Cs, available at: (url removed)/ (url removed)/terms-conditions/ Before this retention period expires, Marshall Harmony will contact me to ask whether I wish my data to remain on file within their talent pool.
