About the role
We're looking for a Junior Estimator to join our Estimating & Pre-Contracts team. Reporting to the Estimating Manager, you'll support the full tendering process — from take-offs and pricing through to bid submission and post-tender follow-up. It's a genuine entry point into commercial estimating, with structured mentoring and a clear path toward Estimator and beyond.
This suits someone early in their estimating journey, looking to grow and develop their skills in multi-trade commercial construction estimating.
What you'll be doing

- Building cost estimates using schedules of rates and supplier pricing
- Issuing RFQs and engaging with suppliers and subcontractors
- Reviewing pricing, lead times and logistics to support reliable tenders
- Assisting with tender submissions, pricing schedules and returnable documents
- Contributing to clarifications, exclusions and risk assessments
- Maintaining document control and supporting on-time submissions
- Assisting with post-tender handovers and project setup
- Working directly with the Estimating Manager, who'll guide you on more complex and custom pricing
What you'll bring
- A keen eye for detail and a methodical, organised approach
- Ability to read and interpret construction drawings
- Confident written, verbal and phone communication — you'll liaise with suppliers regularly
- Good Microsoft Office 365 skills (KeyBuild Services uses the full office suite)
- Certificate/Diploma (or progress toward) in Building & Construction, Estimating, Quantity Surveying or related — or equivalent hands-on construction experience
- 0–2 years in estimating, tendering or contract administration (Some prior experience will be highly regarded)
- Any exposure to Cubit, Bluebeam, ACONEX, Procore or similar is a bonus — training provided
- Applicants must hold unrestricted Australian working rights
What We Offer
- Competitive salary package based on experience
- A structured and supportive estimating environment
- Opportunities for career growth and development
- Exposure to a broad range of commercial and Tier-1 style projects
- Full time position with a stable, growing SEQ business that values reliability and initiative
