Christchurch - Junior Estimator - Electrical
A top contender for the most exciting commercial developments and substantial servicing contracts across the city, these guys just keep getting busier - and they've decided it's now time to add to their estimation team.
Every successful company has their own secret sauce, and these guys are no exception! With a couple of seasoned vets on the team already, they're opening the doors for a junior to come in fresh and learn the recipe - this is a great opportunity to learn from some of the best in the business.
Our ideal candidate would have 1-2 years of estimation experience already, however we will consider sparkies and tertiary graduates as well. The skills can be taught, but the attitude can't. Absolutely essential for this role is a consistent, dedicated, and humble approach to learning, the willingness to work as part of a team, and the ability to handle a busy workload with multiple stakeholders.This is a key role in the business, so it's also important that you're settled in Christchurch and keen to stick around for the long term.

Role:
As Junior Estimator, you'll support the preparation of electrical tenders, quotes, and variation pricing for both the Contracting and Servicing divisions. Your role will involve assisting with material take-offs, obtaining supplier/subcontractor pricing, preparing preliminary and final costings, and producing documentation to support project delivery.
You'll be joining a team of two full-time estimators, and will also work closely with the servicing managers and project managers - all of whom have been at the company for at least five years if not longer. The estimators have a wealth of knowledge to share with their next team member, and the rest of the office (made up of the senior leadership team, PM's, health and safety and administrative staff) are all legends who we've come to know well, after years of assisting with their recruitment across the business.
We are truly proud to partner with these guys to find a Junior Estimator to join their team, and we believe whoever signs the dotted line will be lucky to do so.
