Estimator

As Estimator, you will provide specialist cost estimating support across the capital projects portfolio, working closely with project teams, contractors and key internal stakeholders. You will be responsible for developing and assuring project cost estimates throughout the project lifecycle, supporting cost and schedule risk assessments and ensuring estimating activities are aligned with established project management and cost engineering standards. Key responsibilities will include: Develop cost estimates across all project phases and classes of estimate. Prepare and maintain comprehensive Basis of Estimate (BoE) documentation. Develop estimate plans for various phases of capital projects. Coordinate and review contractor and owner cost estimates. Critically review contractor estimates, productivity assumptions, resource requirements and unit rates. Support Integrated Cost and Schedule Assurance (ICSA) reviews and assurance activities. Participate in cost and schedule risk assessments, including probabilistic risk analysis and contingency setting. Develop and maintain project cost risk models. Undertake contract cost evaluations, cost change analysis and cost trending. Manage estimate change logs and incorporate project risks, vulnerabilities and opportunities. Support the development of Work Breakdown Structures (WBS) and Cost Breakdown Structures (CBS). Ensure estimates remain aligned with project schedules, resource plans and funding requirements. Support project Management of Change (MOC) processes. Undertake project cost benchmarking and incorporate lessons learned from previous projects. Support Business Planning, annual budgeting cycles, monthly expenditure reporting and funding requests. Contribute to Joint Venture Work Program and Budget activities where required. Maintain estimating databases including cost data, unit rates, productivity factors and project metrics. Produce high-quality estimating, budgeting and project funding documentation. Identify opportunities to continuously improve estimating processes, systems, playbooks and digital analytical tools. Utilise emerging technologies, including AI-enabled tools, to support continuous improvement within cost engineering. Work independently with project interfaces and stakeholders to identify and resolve cost-related issues.
