New Wave Electrical Contractors | Rowville, VIC

About Us

New Wave Group is a well-established electrical, data, security and civil contracting business based in Rowville, trusted by commercial, industrial and government clients across Melbourne. We've built our name on quality workmanship and reliable delivery — and now we're growing our team to match a solid pipeline of work.

The Opportunity

This isn't a role where you'll be micromanaged. We're after a Senior Estimator who thrives on autonomy — someone who can pick up a set of drawings and confidently quote a commercial electrical project from start to finish: underground services, mains and sub-mains, switchboards, lighting and power, right through to fit-off. You'll know exactly how to land a competitive, profitable tender without needing your hand held. You'll have real ownership over your pipeline, backed by a Director and Project Managers who trust you to get it right on major commercial builds.

If you like the idea of being the person who makes the call — not just following someone else's — this is your seat.

What you'll be doing:

- Preparing accurate, competitive estimates and tenders across the full scope of a commercial electrical project — undergrounds, mains and sub‑mains, switchboards, lighting, power and everything in between
- Reading and interpreting drawings, specifications and scopes of work




- Liaising directly with suppliers and subcontractors to lock in the best pricing
- Spotting project risks and value‑engineering opportunities before they become problems
- Attending site visits and pre‑tender briefings
- Handing won jobs over cleanly to the Project Managers
- Keeping sharp records of quotes, margins and win rates

What You'll Bring

- Proven runs on the board estimating commercial electrical construction projects start to finish — confident quoting everything from undergrounds through to switchboards, lighting and power
- Deep, practical knowledge of electrical systems, materials and installation methods
- Confidence reading technical drawings and specs without needing to ask twice
- Sharp numeracy and an eye for detail that catches what others miss
- Strong negotiation instincts with suppliers and subcontractors
- A genuine ability to work autonomously — you set your own pace and manage your own workload
- Experience with Simpro highly regarded but not essential
- A trade background or electrical engineering qualification (highly regarded, not essential)
- Clear, confident communication with clients, subcontractors and the internal team

Why New Wave?

- A genuinely strong, growing pipeline of commercial work — job security without the boredom
- Autonomy and trust from day one, not after twelve months of proving yourself
- A tight‑knit, supportive team based in Rowville
