Project Engineer, BESS Estimating
We are seeking a Project Engineer, BESS Estimating to support the development of accurate, competitive proposals for battery energy storage system (BESS) projects. This role will be responsible for interpreting customer requirements, technical specifications, drawings and tender documentation, then translating them into practical engineering solutions and detailed cost estimates. You will work across the full estimating process, from initial enquiry and concept development through to submission, clarification and handover.
Key responsibilities include preparing bills of materials, equipment schedules, technical assumptions, preliminary designs and project cost models for utility-scale and commercial BESS installations. You will obtain and evaluate supplier quotations, validate equipment selections, assess installation and construction costs, and identify project risks, exclusions and opportunities. The role will also involve collaborating with engineering, procurement, project management, sales and commissioning teams to ensure proposals are technically sound, commercially robust and aligned with applicable codes, standards and grid connection requirements.
The successful candidate will have experience in electrical engineering, renewable energy, power systems, estimating or a related project engineering environment, with exposure to battery storage, solar, substations or other electrical infrastructure highly desirable. You should be able to read and interpret single-line diagrams, technical specifications and electrical layouts, and have a sound understanding of major BESS components, including batteries, inverters, transformers, switchgear, energy management systems and balance-of-plant requirements. Strong analytical, organisational and communication skills are essential, along with confidence using spreadsheets and estimating or project management tools. A relevant engineering qualification and the ability to manage multiple deadlines in a fast-paced, collaborative environment will be advantageous.
