What they need
About the Role
We are seeking a motivated Quotes Estimator to join a growing stone benchtop manufacturer based in Christchurch. Working within a collaborative admin team of three, you will take the lead on producing quotes while fielding showroom and phone queries. Utilizing purpose-built software that makes quoting straightforward, this role lets your plan-reading ability, customer service skills, and commercial drive truly shine.
What You'll Be Doing
- Managing the quotes inbox and producing around 10–15 quotes daily with a quick 24-hour turnaround
- Reading and interpreting plans, drawings, and dimensions to ensure accurate quote generation
- Answering customer queries over the phone, via email, and in person within the showroom
- Proactively following up on quotes a few days after sending to build rapport and close sales
- Building and growing strong relationships with tradies, developers, and retail customers
- Working closely with an admin team of three to ensure smooth daily operations and customer support
- Learning and utilizing purpose-built quoting software efficiently
What We’re Looking For
- Confidence reading plans (whether a benchtop drawing or a full kitchen plan to identify key dimensions)
- Exceptional spoken English with an engaging, confident phone manner that builds trust naturally
- Strong customer service background with the ability to understand client needs (tradies, developers, end users)
- Commercial drive and initiative to proactively follow up quotes rather than waiting for the phone to ring
- Tech-savvy with confidence to pick up new software quickly
- Industry experience in benchtops, kitchen, bathroom, or laundry manufacturing/design (understanding edge profiles, sink/hob cut-outs, and stone specs) is ideal
- Alternatively, interior design study providing strong plan-reading and measurement skills is welcome
Benefits
- Straightforward, purpose-built quoting software to streamline your workflow
- Pay Rate : $28.00/Hour to $30.00/Hour
- Collaborative, values-led team environment of around 25 people
- Purpose-built facilities based conveniently in Hornby
- Practical, straight-talking culture with clear business direction and support
