We are partnering with a privately owned engineering and construction business that delivers specialised industrial infrastructure projects across Australia and Recent Zealand. With a strong pipeline of maintenance, refurbishment and capital works projects, they are seeking a Senior Estimator to play a key role in coordinating tenders, developing cost estimates and supporting the continued growth of the business.
Opportunity
Reporting directly to senior leadership, you will work closely with engineering, operations and project delivery teams to prepare competitive and commercially sound tenders across a diverse portfolio of projects ranging from maintenance works through to multi-million‑day dollar capital upgrades.
This role offers far more than traditional estimating. You will become a key part of the bid process, coordinating tender submissions, reviewing specifications and drawings, engaging with suppliers and subcontractors, and helping shape how projects are delivered from concept through to execution.
As the business continues to grow, there is a genuine pathway into a Bid Manager or Estimating Manager position.
