- Obtaining and coordinating supplier, subcontractor and internal pricing information.
- Identifying scope gaps, exclusions, assumptions and potential variations before quotations are submitted.
- Liaising with customers, builders, contractors and consultants to clarify technical and commercial requirements.
- Monitoring tender opportunities through EstimateOne and other construction tender platforms.
- Managing multiple quotations and tender deadlines while maintaining accuracy and attention to detail.
- Following up submitted quotations and assisting the sales team with pricing queries and commercial negotiations.
- Maintaining accurate pricing information, quotation records and opportunity details within internal systems.
- Coordinating with internal teams to ensure successful handover of awarded projects.
- Identifying opportunities to improve estimating processes, pricing consistency and quotation turnaround times.

- Confidence communicating with customers, suppliers and internal stakeholders to clarify requirements and obtain pricing information.
- Proficiency in Microsoft Office, particularly Excel, with the ability to learn internal estimating and CRM systems.
- A proactive, solutions-focused approach and the ability to work independently while contributing to a team.

Experience with EstimateOne, construction tender platforms, architectural drawings, building products, steel fabrication, manufacturing, security systems or infrastructure projects will be highly regarded.

Experience with take-offs, bills of quantities, supplier pricing and installation costing would also be advantageous.

Mandarin language skills would be an additional advantage.
