Civil Estimator / Project Manager

Randstad has partnered with a premier civil contractor based in Margate to secure a dual-function Estimator / Project Manager. Renowned for their practical approach, strong work ethic, and commitment to quality outcomes, this growing business is seeking a practical professional who thrives working across both tender preparation and on-site project delivery across Southern Tasmania.

In this position, you will bridge the gap between tendering and execution-preparing accurate, competitive tenders for commercial civil packages (earthworks, concrete structures, drainage) before stepping in to manage procurement, variations, client relations, and financial performance through to completion.

Key Responsibilities

• Estimating & Tendering: Review tender documents, conduct accurate take-offs, construct detailed BOQs, and obtain competitive subcontractor pricing to prepare end-to-end tender submissions.
• Project Delivery: Manage awarded projects from handover to completion, including procurement, scheduling, risk management, and budget control.
• Commercial & Financial: Track project performance, manage variation registers, control costs, and oversee monthly progress claims.
• Stakeholder Management: Maintain strong working relationships with clients, engineers, subcontractors, and internal site teams.
• Compliance & Quality: Support quality assurance, site safety, and environmental compliance across all project phases.

Requirements

• Experience: Minimum 5+ years of combined experience in civil estimating and project management.
• Technical Expertise: Deep knowledge of civil construction methodologies, detailed take-offs, contract management, and project costing.
• Software Proficiency: Strong skills in civil estimating software, project scheduling tools, and MS Office suite (Excel).
• Communication & Mindset: Solution-focused, commercially astute, with strong relationship-building and negotiation skills.

What's on Offer

• Competitive salary package ($130k - $160k + Super).
• Fully maintained company vehicle and fuel card.
• Dynamic, dual-focused role offering end-to-end oversight and job variety.
• Supportive, hands-on workplace culture in a growing business.
