About Rogers Construction Group
Rogers Construction Group (RCG) is a privately owned Sydney-based commercial construction company delivering projects across NSW, with offices in Newcastle and Wollongong, and recently expanded into Melbourne.
We specialise in Education, Aged Care & Retirement Living, Social and Government Housing, Government, Industrial, Corporate, and Retail projects up to $20M. Our business is experiencing significant, controlled growth, built on strong client relationships and a reputation for delivering quality outcomes.
Our Minor Works Division focuses on projects in the $250K – $2M range, and we're now hiring a dedicated Estimator — a key hire for this division. We're looking for someone ready to make this role their own, take ownership of the estimating function, and play a genuine part in shaping the success of the Minor Works team.
A minimum of 3-5 years of estimating experience is required for this position.
The Role
Reporting to the Head of Minor Works, you'll manage a pipeline of 4–8 live tenders at any time across government, education, aged care, and commercial sectors. This is a hands-on estimating role — you own the pricing from scope review through to submission, with strong support around you including a Bid Coordinator, dedicated program and methodology resources, and the backing of RCG's full estimating team.
Day to day you'll be:
- Liaising directly with clients on tender queries, RFIs, and site inspections — you're comfortable picking up the phone and representing RCG
- Reading and interpreting scope documents, drawings, and specifications
- Conducting and attending site inspections
- Issuing and managing RFQs to subcontractors and suppliers
- Building competitive, well-covered estimates using CostX (or similar)
- Proficiency across multiple estimating software platforms is required for accurate project pricing.
- Preparing pricing schedules and quote submissions for smaller jobs
- Working with the Bid Coordinator on full tender submissions — cover letters, capability statements, and compliant document formatting
- Drawing on program and methodology resources where submissions require a construction program or methodology statement
- Maintaining the tender register and pipeline reporting
- Coordinating with the delivery team post-award on pricing assumptions and handover
What We're Looking For
- 3–6 years estimating experience in commercial construction
- Proven experience pricing in the $250K–$2M range
- A natural relationship builder — you're on the phone, you know your subbies, and they pick up when you call
- Confident communicating with clients — whether it's a site inspection, an RFI, or a relationship call, you represent RCG professionally
- Strong subcontractor and supplier network
- Experience in government, education, or aged care sectors highly regarded
- Proficient in CostX (or similar)
- High attention to detail — you check your numbers before they go out the door
- Strong written communication — your submissions read well, not just price well
What's in it for You
- A key role with real ownership — this is not a support position, it's a seat at the table
- Well supported from day one — Bid Coordinator, program and methodology resources, and the full RCG estimating team behind you
- Bella Vista HQ — contemporary office
- Friday team lunches, annual harbour cruise, quarterly social events
- Direct access to leadership — no layers of bureaucracy
- A company that's growing strategically and taking you with it
