Estimator & Technical Lead - Yarraville/Melbourne

Ready to take the lead on some of the most complex, high-performance data centre and communications cabling envrionment projects in the industry?

We’re looking for a sharp, commercially mindedEstimator & Technical Lead to join our team delivering hyperscale data centre and commercial cabling solutions. This is a high-impact, dual‑role position where precision estimating meets technical authority — shaping projects from tender right through to delivery.

What’s on Offer

- Hands‑on exposure to complex, high‑profile projects
- Supportive team culture with access to ongoing internal and external training and development opportunities.
- Excellent location – Yarraville

The Opportunity

You’ll sit at the critical intersection of pre‑construction, engineering, and delivery, ensuring every solution is:

- Commercially competitive
- Technically sound
- Fully constructible

From major fibre backbones to dense copper infrastructure in mission‑critical environments, you’ll help define how world‑class data centres and commercial cabling systems are built.

What You’ll Own

- Break down complex RFQs, drawings, and specs into clear, buildable scopes
- Develop detailed BOQs across fibre, copper, containment, pathways, racks, and testing
- Deliver accurate, competitive cost estimates using real‑world productivity and supplier pricing
- Identify risks, gaps, and design issues before they become problems
- Lead high‑quality tender submissions with smart methodology and value engineering
- Support seamless handover into delivery with full commercial clarity

Technical Leadership

- Act as the go‑to technical authority for structured cabling systems




- Review and validate designs, shop drawings, and installation methodologies
- Guide project teams through installation, coordination, and commissioning challenges
- Ensure full compliance with AS/CA S009, AS/NZS 3000, TIA/EIA, and client standards
- Drive smarter ways of building through innovation and value engineering

What You Will Bring

Must‑Have

- 5+ years in ICT, structured cabling, or data centre infrastructure
- Strong estimating experience in cabling/electrical/ICT environments
- Deep technical understanding of fibre, copper, containment, and pathways
- Experience in data centre or mission‑critical projects
- Ability to read and interpret complex drawings and specifications
- Strong command of industry standards (AS/CA S009, TIA/EIA, AS/NZS 3000)
- Confident with Excel, estimating tools, and technical documentation
- Strong communicator who can influence across teams and stakeholders

Bonus Points

- Site leadership or project engineering background
- Hands‑on testing experience (OTDR, copper certification)

Why This Role Stands Out

- Work on cutting‑edge hyperscale data centre builds
- High visibility role with real influence across projects
- Chance to shape how complex infrastructure is delivered
- A team that values quality, innovation, and doing it right the first time
