Estimators, valuers and assessors sits in the high exposure band: its abilities overlap with current AI applications more than about 72% of the 365 UK occupations the Department for Education scored. High exposure usually means AI can help with many of the tasks involved, such as drafting, analysis or information handling. That can change how the job is done, but it is not a forecast that the job will disappear.

Underlying scores: AIOE (all AI) 0.90, LLM exposure 0.71 (standardised; 0 is the average occupation). Skill level: Level 3. Pay and job counts are 2020 figures, so use them to compare occupations rather than as current salaries.
