We have the opportunity for a North East based estimator to take on a new role for 2018, joining a rapidly expanding printing company.

Preparing accurate and timely costs across the full range of services offered requires a candidate who is efficient, organised and confident in the ability to prioritise tasks in accordance with estimate deadlines.
As a strong communicator and keen team player, you will liaise with the account management team and key client contacts.
