- Prepare detailed estimates, bills of quantities and cost plans for piping and associated mechanical works.
- Complete accurate material, labour, plant and subcontractor assessments.
- Obtain and evaluate supplier and subcontractor quotations, ensuring suitable scope coverage.
- Identify exclusions, assumptions, risks, opportunities and potential value-engineering options.
- Collaborate with design and engineering teams to resolve technical queries and clarify requirements.
- Maintain estimating records, databases and benchmark information to support future bids.
- Assist with tender reviews, pricing submissions and handover to the project delivery team.
About you
You will have proven experience estimating piping or mechanical projects, ideally within industrial, process, energy, utilities, manufacturing or construction environments. A sound understanding of piping materials, fabrication, installation methods, testing requirements and relevant industry standards is essential.
You should be confident working from incomplete or evolving information, have excellent attention to detail and be capable of managing multiple deadlines. Strong numerical, analytical and communication skills are required, together with proficiency in estimating software and Microsoft Excel. Experience with digital measurement or quantity take-off tools would be advantageous.
This is an excellent opportunity to join a collaborative preconstruction function where your expertise will directly influence project strategy, commercial performance and successful tender outcomes.
