  • Analyse project plans, technical specifications, and tender documentation.
  • Conduct quantity take-offs, cost breakdowns, and risk assessments with precision.
  • Work closely with Project Managers, Engineers, and the Senior Leadership Team to ensure estimates are competitive and deliverable.
  • Build and maintain strong relationships with subcontractors and suppliers to source competitive pricing.
  • Identify value engineering opportunities and deliver cost efficiencies without compromising quality or safety.
  • Drive tender submissions that position our client as the contractor of choice.

About You:We're not just hiring an estimator. We're hiring someone who:

  • Prides themselves on accuracy and thrives under competitive tender conditions.
  • Has a proven track record of winning work across civil infrastructure projects.
  • Understands the commercial side of construction and can spot opportunities for efficiencies.
  • Can influence stakeholders, negotiate with confidence, and present professionally.

Essential Requirements:

  • Minimum 5+ years' experience as a Civil Estimator in the construction industry.
  • Strong knowledge of civil works (earthmoving, roads, drainage, concrete, structures).
  • Proficiency with estimation software (such as Expert Estimation, Candy, or similar).
  • Strong ability to interpret engineering drawings, technical documents, and specifications.
  • High-level numeracy, analytical thinking, and attention to detail.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills for preparing bids and tenders.
  • White Card and current driver's licence.

Highly Regarded:

  • Experience in ground engineering, concrete remediation, and environmental/waste management projects.
  • A tertiary qualification in Civil Engineering, Quantity Surveying, or Construction Management.
  • Previous involvement in first-principles estimating.
  • Previous experience with Tier 1 or 2 civil contractor

What's in It for You

  • Leadership Opportunity: Be the key commercial driver in winning work for a company with strong growth ambitions.
  • Career Development: Pathways into senior commercial and executive roles.
  • High-Impact Work: Estimating projects that shape infrastructure and communities across QLD and NSW.
  • Company Culture: A workplace built on safety, collaboration, innovation, and Indigenous inclusion.
  • Rewarding Package: Competitive salary reflective of your experience and results.
