Job Description
Position : Estimator
Salary : $1,800 - $2,200 AUD a month
Working Hours & Conditions : Australian working hours
Holidays : TBD
ABOUT THE COMPANY:
The company is a specialist concreting and construction business delivering high-quality residential concrete projects across Brisbane and surrounding areas.

OVERVIEW:
The client is seeking a detail-oriented Residential Concrete Estimator to manage the end-to-end quoting process for residential concreting projects. This role is focused on preparing accurate estimates, managing quote workflows, and leveraging Build Paperless to efficiently convert plans into professional customer quotations.
