For more than 60 years we've been one of Australia's leading modular construction companies, delivering permanent and temporary building solutions across education, healthcare, government, defence, commercial, industrial, mining, sport, community infrastructure and large-scale residential projects. Many of our clients initially engage consultants to design buildings using traditional in situ construction methods before choosing Ausco to deliver the project using modular construction. They choose us because of the benefits modular construction provides, including faster project delivery, improved safety, reduced site disruption, greater programme certainty and exceptional value. As demand for modular construction continues to grow, we're looking for an experienced Building Estimator or Quantity Surveyor to join our National Technical Services team for a six-month fixed term.

This is a technical estimating role that requires someone who understands how buildings are designed, measured and constructed, and who enjoys solving construction challenges rather than simply preparing quantities. What You'll Be Doing Prepare accurate project budgets, estimates and tenders. Develop and maintain project-specific Bills of Materials (BOMs) for manufacturing and construction. Prepare or review Bills of Quantities (BOQs) where required by client procurement processes. Interpret architectural, structural, civil, hydraulic, mechanical and electrical documentation.

Ensure estimates comply with the National Construction Code, Australian Standards and Ausco's national estimating standards. Work collaboratively with Design, Manufacturing, Procurement, Construction and Sales teams throughout the estimating process. Identify opportunities to improve estimating systems, workflows, cost data and national processes. Manage multiple estimates simultaneously while maintaining a high level of accuracy. About You We're looking for someone with a strong technical estimating foundation who enjoys understanding how buildings are put together and can work independently within a collaborative national team. Ideally, you'll bring: A tertiary qualification in Quantity Surveying, Construction Management or a closely related discipline. Demonstrated experience using CostX for measurement and estimating. Experience preparing Bills of Quantities (BOQs) and a sound understanding of construction measurement principles. Experience preparing detailed building estimates across multiple trades. The ability to interpret architectural, structural and engineering documentation. Strong knowledge of Australian construction practices, the National Construction Code and relevant Australian Standards. Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills.

Experience That Would Be Highly Regarded While not essential, experience in any of the following would be highly regarded: Modular or prefabricated construction. Building manufacturing environments. BIM and digital construction workflows. Design for Manufacture and Assembly (DfMA). Civil and external works. Working for both contractors and consulting organisations. Why Join Ausco? This is more than a traditional estimating role. You'll become part of a national technical team that is continually improving the way estimating is delivered across the business. You'll have the opportunity to: Work on a diverse range of projects across multiple sectors throughout Australia. Collaborate with specialists across Design, Manufacturing, Procurement, Construction and Sales. Contribute to the continual improvement of national estimating systems, processes and standards.
