Estimator

XXL™ builds across three areas: industrial - warehousing, new builds and engineered steel structures; residential - refurbishments, house raising and new builds; and commercial & maintenance - make good and tenant fit-outs that get industrial and commercial properties sale, lease or move-in ready.

The XXL™ team takes every project from first sketch to handover, whatever the site, scale, planning approval, or geography. XXL™ is currently undergoing a period of growth and operational modernisation and offers a genuine opportunity to join a lean and capable team, and have a real impact on how we win and deliver work.

We're looking for an experienced Estimator to own the costing, tendering, and bid writing function for XXL™. This is a critical commercial role where you'll be the person who turns a client brief and a set of structural drawings into a compelling, accurate, and competitive proposal.

You'll work closely with the Directors to assess tender opportunities, build detailed cost models, manage subcontractor and supplier pricing, and ensure our bids are sharp, compliant, and positioned to win. You'll also play a key role in the early commercial setup of awarded projects.

This role suits someone who is comfortable working independently, thrives on technical detail, and wants to be part of a company that builds genuinely interesting structures.

• Construction estimating experience, ideally a blend of commercial, industrial, and residential

• Ability to read structural drawings, engineering specs, and tender documents

• Solid grasp of cost drivers (materials, labour, fabrication, transport, site works)

• Proficient in estimating software and willing to adopt new software and technologies

• Proven tender submissions that have been awarded

• Qualification in Construction Management, Engineering, or Quantity Surveying

• Familiarity with QLD construction regs and QBCC requirements

• Exposure to design-and-construct, ECI delivery, or government projects

You're detail-oriented, commercially sharp, and self-managing, someone who communicates clearly, works well with a team, and is open to improving how things get done.

• Work on genuinely interesting and technically complex structures

• Join a team at an exciting stage of growth and modernisation

• Competitive salary with opportunity to grow as the business scales

• Lean team means less bureaucracy and more autonomy

• Brisbane-based with flexibility for a high performer

• ISO-certified business with strong systems and a professional reputation

• Hybrid working environment with the option to work from home (WFH) 2 - 3 days per week
