🧮 Senior Estimator – Post‑Tension & Structures
Melbourne | Design & Construct | New PT venture
Are you a structures‑savvy estimator who actually enjoys getting into the details of drawings, take‑offs and tenders – and wants a real say in which jobs your business chases?
We’re partnering with a new post‑tension design & construct business founded by former leaders from a major PT contractor. They’re growing fast and looking for a Senior Estimator to be the commercial backbone of the business.
đź’Ľ The opportunity
You’ll work directly with the founders and be trusted to:
📝 Own detailed take‑offs from structural / PT drawings
đź’° Build and refine rates for PT slabs and broader structural packages
📑 Lead tenders end‑to‑end – clarifications, inclusions/exclusions, VE options
🤝 Liaise with builders, engineers and internal teams to close info gaps
đź§ Help shape bid strategy, margin and risk on each opportunity
This is not a “back‑room numbers only” role – you’ll be front and centre in how the business wins work and how the estimating function is built.
đź§ About you
We’d love to hear from you if you:
Have strong estimating experience in concrete / structural / PT packages
Are comfortable working from structural drawings and doing your own take‑offs
Bring a civil / structural engineering background (or similar technical base)
Enjoy collaborating with founders, engineers and site teams to get the bid right
Want a role where your input genuinely influences project selection and profit
Post‑tension experience is ideal, but we’re open to strong structural estimators keen to deepen their PT exposure.
🎯 What’s on offer
Direct access to experienced PT founders and decision‑makers
A say in systems, processes and templates from day one
Exposure to interesting building projects across Melbourne
Competitive salary package, with room to build in performance‑based upside
