Turn Numbers into Business Success

Do you love working with data, pricing and commercial analysis? Are you someone who enjoys building accurate estimates, influencing commercial decisions and uncovering opportunities to improve profitability?

If you're looking for a role where your analytical skills genuinely make a difference, this could be the perfect opportunity.

My client is looking for a commercially minded Commercial Estimator & Business Analyst to join a successful and growing manufacturing business. Working alongside the current Commercial manager, you'll play a key role in shaping pricing strategy, producing competitive quotations and tenders, and delivering valuable commercial insight that helps drive business performance.

This is an exciting opportunity for someone who thrives on problem-solving, enjoys working with Excel and data, and wants to see the impact of their work on the success of the business.

What You'll Be Doing

No two days are the same. You'll combine estimating, pricing and commercial analysis to support both customers and the wider business.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Preparing accurate customer quotations and pricing proposals.
• Producing detailed cost estimates for major tenders and new business opportunities.
• Analysing sales performance, margins and customer profitability to identify commercial opportunities.
• Supporting pricing strategy by maintaining and developing pricing models and databases.
• Producing insightful commercial reports that influence business decisions.
• Providing meaningful analysis for customer reviews and commercial negotiations.
• Validating invoice pricing to ensure commercial accuracy.
• Working closely with Sales, Operations and Commercial colleagues to deliver the best outcomes for customers and the business.

What We're Looking For

We're looking for someone who enjoys using numbers to solve commercial challenges.

You'll ideally have:

• Strong analytical and numerical skills.
• Experience in estimating, pricing, commercial analysis or business analysis.
• Advanced Microsoft Excel skills.
• The ability to interpret data and turn it into practical commercial recommendations.
• Excellent attention to detail and accuracy.
• Strong organisational skills with the ability to manage multiple priorities.
• A proactive mindset and a genuine interest in improving processes and profitability.

Experience with Microsoft Access, SharePoint or Power BI would be an advantage but isn't essential, my client is happy to support your development.

Why You'll Love This Role

This is much more than an administration role. You'll become a trusted member of the Commercial team, with the opportunity to influence pricing decisions, support major customer opportunities and contribute directly to the company's commercial success.

If you enjoy estimating, analysing data, working with financial information and helping shape business decisions, you'll find this role both rewarding and varied.

What's On Offer

• Salary up to £40,000
• Annual bonus (minimum 1% of salary)
• 25 days holiday plus bank holidays, increasing to 28 days with service
• Medicash healthcare scheme
• Company pension (5% employee / 4% employer)
• Company sick pay
• Enhanced maternity and paternity pay
• Employee Assistance Programme
• Benefits Hub with discounts, cashback and exclusive offers
• A collaborative, supportive team environment with genuine opportunities for development and career progression
