We are seeking an experienced Senior Estimator to lead the preparation of accurate, competitive bids for commercial, industrial, and infrastructure projects across the Gulf Coast region. The successful candidate will evaluate project plans, specifications, drawings, and contract documents to develop detailed estimates covering labour, materials, equipment, subcontractors, permits, logistics, and other associated costs. This role will play a key part in supporting business growth while ensuring estimates are commercially sound, well documented, and aligned with project requirements.

Responsibilities will include reviewing tender invitations and determining project scope, identifying risks and opportunities, preparing quantity take-offs, soliciting and evaluating subcontractor and supplier quotations, and developing detailed cost breakdowns and bid summaries. You will coordinate with project managers, engineers, vendors, and subcontractors to clarify requirements and validate pricing. The role will also involve maintaining estimating databases, tracking market conditions and material costs, participating in pre-bid meetings and site visits, preparing bid submissions, and supporting handover activities when projects are awarded.

Strong skills in reading technical drawings, performing accurate calculations, analysing costs, and using estimating or project management software are essential. You should be highly organised, commercially aware, and confident communicating with internal and external stakeholders. The ability to manage multiple tenders, meet strict deadlines, work independently, and maintain close attention to detail is critical. A valid driving licence and willingness to travel to project sites may be required.
