Brisbane, Queensland, Australia The Lorian Group Full time $40,000 - $60,000 per year

Your New Company

The Lorian Group have partnered with a well-established commercial builder with more than a decade of successful delivery in the Brisbane market. They work on projects up to $30M across sectors such as education, community, industrial, and commercial. The company is known for its consistent quality, strong client relationships, and a high level of repeat business. Their team is close-knit, with very low staff turnover, creating a stable environment where junior staff are supported to learn and progress.

Your New Role

As a Junior Estimator, your role is to provide hands-on support to the estimating team. You'll be involved in the full tendering process, with a focus on the day-to-day tasks that keep bids moving. This includes:

  • Carrying out take-offs and quantity measurements
  • Preparing subcontractor and supplier requests for pricing and following up responses
  • Assisting with compiling tender submissions and documentation
  • Maintaining accurate records, schedules, and cost databases
  • Supporting senior estimators with administrative and technical tasks as required

This role will give you broad exposure to how tenders are prepared and delivered, setting you up with the skills to move into a more senior estimating role in the future.

What You Will Need to Succeed

  • 1-2 years of experience in an estimating or cadet role within commercial construction
  • A construction-related tertiary qualification (or progress towards one) such as Construction Management or Quantity Surveying
  • Good attention to detail and a willingness to handle the measuring, data, and administrative workload that underpins estimating
  • Strong organisational skills with the ability to work to tender deadlines
  • A proactive mindset and an eagerness to learn from experienced estimators

What You Will Get in Return

This is a strong career step for someone looking to develop in estimating. You'll be joining a reputable builder with a consistent pipeline of commercial projects and the stability of a long-standing team. Benefits include:

  • Structured mentoring from senior estimators
  • Exposure to tenders and projects up to $30M in value
  • Training and development opportunities to build your capability and confidence
  • A secure role in a company with minimal staff turnover and long-term career pathways
