- Commercial & Financial: Track project performance, manage variation registers, control costs, and oversee monthly progress claims.
- Stakeholder Management:



Maintain strong working relationships with clients, engineers, subcontractors, and internal site teams.
- Compliance & Quality: Support quality assurance, site safety, and environmental compliance across all project phases.

Requirements

- Experience: Minimum 5+ years of combined experience in civil estimating and project management.

- Software Proficiency: Strong skills in civil estimating software, project scheduling tools, and MS Office suite (Excel).

- Fully maintained company vehicle and fuel card.
- Dynamic, dual-focused role offering end-to-end oversight and job variety.
- Supportive, hands-on workplace culture in a growing business.
