Ready to move beyond pricing the same standard homes over and over again?
If you've built a couple of years' experience in residential estimating and you're looking for a role where you can broaden your skills, work on genuinely custom homes and learn more about the entire building process, this could be a great next step.
Ashmont Homes is an award-winning custom home builder based in Gregory Hills.
We're a smaller, experienced team and deliberately take on fewer projects so we can focus on the quality of our homes and the experience we provide our clients.
We're now looking for a
Sales Estimator
to become an significant part of our sales and pre-construction team.
Why this role is different
We're a custom builder, which means no two projects are exactly the same.
You will work across custom homes, knock-down rebuilds, dual occupancies and other residential projects, with exposure to everything from design changes and site conditions through to engineering, selections, upgrades and final contract pricing.
You also won't be sitting in an estimating silo.
You will work directly with our design, sales, pre-construction and construction teams and get to see how the decisions made during estimating ultimately translate onto site.
For someone with a good estimating foundation who wants to become a genuinely well-rounded residential estimator, there's plenty of opportunity to develop here.
You don't need to know everything on day one.
If you've got around two years' residential estimating experience, good fundamentals, a strong eye for detail and the right attitude, we're happy to help you build on the rest.
What you'll be doing
Your role will include:




Prepare accurate Client Variations throughout the sales and pre-construction process consisting of:
Custom Plan Change Variations
Site Cost Variations
Landscape & Pool Variations
External Colour & Upgrade Variations
Selection Upgrade Variations
Assess consultant reports and prepare accurate variations throughout the sales and pre-construction process consisting of:
Structural and Hydraulic Engineering Variations
BASIX Variations
Bushfire, Acoustic, Flood and Mine Subsidence Variations
Council, Certifier & Developer Variations
Preparing accurate sales estimates and tenders
Liaising with suppliers and trades to obtain accurate, current pricing
Ensuring specifications, selections and final contract pricing remain aligned
Preparing and maintaining project budgets
Managing your estimating workload to meet client and pre-construction timeframes
Working with our construction team to make sure upgrades and variations are practical, buildable and compliant
We'd like to hear from you if you:
Have at least
2 years' experience
in residential construction estimating, sales estimating or a similar role
Have a good foundation in residential construction and want to keep learning
Take pride in producing accurate work and getting the detail right

Databuild
or

and intermediate
Microsoft Excel
skills would be an advantage.
A
Certificate IV in Building & Construction, Diploma of Building and Construction
, or similar qualification would also be highly regarded.
