Job description

Construction Estimator, Australian projects, remote from the Philippines

Work from home | Australian hours | Full benefits from day one

Building Teams Global is the construction division of YOOT Group. We employ Filipino construction professionals and place each one with a single Australian building company. This ad stays open all year.

What you will do

• Quantity take-offs from architectural, structural, civil and services drawings.
• Bills of quantities, tender pricing and unit-rate build-ups.
• Subcontractor and supplier quotes: request, compare, level.
• Keeping the rate library current.

You work in the client's systems on Australian business hours: an early Philippine start and a mid-afternoon finish. No night shift.

Who we are looking for

We are building a bench of estimators at every stage: one to three years, three to five, and five plus. Tell us where you are and we match you to the roles that fit.

• Construction estimating or quantity surveying experience. Australian projects are a plus.
• At least one estimating tool used on real projects: CostX, Cubit, Buildsoft, Bluebeam Revu, PlanSwift or similar. Strong Excel. Procore and EstimateOne help.
• You can read a specification and price from it. ANZSMM, Rawlinsons or Cordell experience is a plus.
• Clear written and spoken English. You will talk with Australian office and site people every day.
• A reliable home office. Depending on where you live, we arrange a coworking backup site you can use when there is a power or internet outage.

Why people stay with us

We are small enough to know everyone by name and serious enough to do the employer part properly.

• HMO for you and one dependant from day one.
• 13th month pay and full government contributions, paid on time.
• A monthly non-taxable allowance and paid leave.
• A salary benchmarked against current Manila market data for your level.

One client, one team, a real relationship: our clients meet you before anything is signed. And a person, not a system, reads every application and tells you where you stand. If it is a no, we say so.

How it works

Bench first. If your profile fits, we invite you to a short recorded skills assessment and a video conversation. With your consent, you join our bench and we match you to Australian roles as they open. When one fits, the client meets you before anything is signed. The bench is not a job offer, and we are straight with you about timing.
