Leading and supervising quantity take offs and cost build ups
Managing subcontractor and supplier pricing, RFIs and tender clarifications
Ensuring accuracy of labour rates, enterprise agreements, materials and subcontractor inputs
Maintaining compliance with the Downer Standard, governance and approval processes
Supporting post submission negotiations and clarifications
Coaching and mentoring Estimators and Junior Estimators
Contributing to continuous improvement in estimating systems and processes
About you
8+ years' experience in the construction industry, ideally within power and transmission
Proven experience delivering estimates for D and C, Construct Only and Fixed Lump Sum projects
Strong capability across civil, structural and electrical estimating disciplines
Sound understanding of engineering, planning and scheduling principles
Proficient in estimating systems and Microsoft Office
Strong stakeholder engagement skills, with the ability to communicate at all levels

What we offer

At Downer, we support your growth and wellbeing while delivering meaningful projects that matter.
You'll benefit from
The opportunity to work on major transmission line and HV infrastructure projects
A supportive and collaborative team environment
Career development pathways across Downer's Energy & Utilities business
Flexible working arrangements where operationally feasible
