Helensvale, Queensland, Australia Alder Group Full time $90,000 - $120,000 per year

Alder Group proudly celebrated 22 years in 2025 — bringing engineering and construction teams together under one roof to deliver building, civil, and infrastructure projects.

We have an exciting opportunity for an Estimator to join our well-established Asset Renewal team. The successful candidate will play a key role in our project development and lead bid preparations for tenders across the beautiful Gold Coast, Brisbane & Northern NSW.

Our Asset Renewal team handles a variety of projects valued between $500k and $10m, including cladding, façade renewals, podium refurbishments, concrete repairs, structural steel repairs, and bespoke high-rise repairs. No two projects are ever the same

The team you would be joining is a group of hardworking, motivated individuals who pride themselves on their successful track record of tendering and delivering high-quality construction projects. Ideally, you will possess experience in estimating and construction.

If you're a Senior Contract Administrator or Project Manager seeking a new opportunity and have some estimating experience, please consider this role.

Alternatively, if you're an Estimator with a background in civil or building projects, feel free to reach out—we're always open to a conversation to see if this role could be the right fit for you.

About the role:

  • Manage pricing for tender submissions across various commercial projects.
  • Collaborate with other senior team members to secure future work opportunities.
  • Review and evaluate subcontractor pricing.
  • Offer estimating advice and compare costs for alternatives and innovative construction methods.
  • Identify risks and opportunities within design and tender documents.
  • Work closely with clients, subcontractors, and the supply chain to build strong relationships.
  • Mentor and contribute to the development of junior team members.
  • Our company ethos of supporting and training individuals keen to upskill is a key motivator for many of our long-standing team members.

About You - Skills and Experience

  • Extensive computer skills.
  • Estimating experience in the Building industry (Qld & NSW) would be advantageous, and Civil or Structural experience would also be highly regarded in this role.
  • Can work successfully in a team — our company culture is a key part of our success.
  • Are a natural problem solver who enjoys planning and troubleshooting.
  • Be innovative and creative to achieve competitive tender outcomes.
