Position Summary:
We are looking for talented individuals to grow with us. Stay updated with our latest developments on LinkedIn as our website undergoes a makeover.
This is more than an estimating role — it's an opportunity to influence strategy, shape processes, and contribute directly to client's growth trajectory.
As the business continues to grow, so too will this role. Pivotal to our quest for excellence, you will enjoy working in a fast-paced, emerging business, putting your skills into the pre-contracts department and building upon existing processes and policies.
The right candidate will work closely with the Commercial Manager and Director of Operations in the pre-contracts phase.
Key Responsibilities:
You will take ownership of estimating and pre-contracts activity, delivering both technical excellence and commercial leadership across major projects:
- Lead the preparation, submission, and negotiation of high-value tenders and proposals.
- Prepare accurate estimates, pricing schedules, take-offs, BOQs, and budgets, validating all costs from first principles.
- Coordinate and review external QS BOQs, ensuring accuracy, compliance, and alignment with project scope.
- Provide early-stage cost advice and optioneering to inform design and procurement decisions.
- Facilitate preliminary design documentation for design-and-construct tenders to achieve required outcomes.
- Assess buildability, materials, and innovative solutions to deliver cost-effective, practical results.
- Develop procurement strategies and negotiate best-value outcomes with suppliers and subcontractors.
- Maintain robust, auditable records of subcontractor and supplier documentation, including addenda and clarifications.
- Track project performance, reconcile costs against budgets, and proactively identify risks and opportunities.
- Build and maintain historical cost databases to strengthen forecasting and improve future estimating accuracy.
- Review post-award design drawings to identify out-of-scope work and protect the client's commercial position.
- Collaborate with project teams to cost and substantiate variations.
- Ensure estimating systems and processes remain robust, traceable, and continuously improved.
- Support bid submissions, tender clarifications, and complex client negotiations with professionalism and commercial insight.
Requirements:
- Degree or diploma in Engineering, Quantity Surveying, Construction Management, or related discipline (desirable).
- Proven estimating experience within the WA resources sector, ideally across non-process infrastructure and modular/transportable projects.
- Strong commercial acumen with demonstrated success in cost control, procurement, and negotiation.
- Familiarity with WA subcontractor and supplier networks.
- Proficiency in Microsoft Excel, Bluebeam Revu, and estimating software (e.g., Expert Estimation, Candy, or equivalent).
- Experience leading or mentoring others, or a strong interest in developing leadership capability.
- Clear communicator with excellent stakeholder engagement skills.
- Fair, flexible, and collaborative approach, with the ability to deliver under pressure.
Job Types: Full-time, Permanent
Benefits:
- Company Christmas gift
- Company events
