Junior Estimator

Glooloop Surfacing is an outdoor surfacing company, specialising in rubber softfall surfacing, synthetic grass surfacing and permeable stone surfacing. We have a team of around 25 employees and our warehouse and office are located in Kings Park.

We are seeking a Junior Estimator to join our team. The role will incorporate the following responsibilities:

• Reporting directly to the Estimator
• Using Excel to cost jobs and prepare quotation letters for clients
• Ability to read plans and obtain measurements from plans
• Discussing knowledgably the Glooloop Surfacing products and providing appropriate options for clients (training will be provided in respect of this)
• Travelling to client sites to meet with clients with our Estimator to assist with discussing options with clients and to do a site measure for the purpose of quoting (this will not be required for all quotes)
• Preparing tender documents for larger jobs, along with attendance at pre-tender meetings
• All administrative aspects of the above tasks
• Follow-up with clients after quotation complete

You will have office support, but will be expected to take responsibility for ensuring all of your paperwork is completed appropriately.  We are able to provide flexibility with the role and are open to considering both full time and part time applications. Some estimating knowledge/experience is necessary, but our key requirements for the successful candidate are as follows:

• Ability to easily get along with new people
• Ability to quickly learn how our products and systems work
• Good computer skills
• Hard working and enthusiastic approach
• Willing to drive to client sites in the greater Sydney metropolitan area
• A self-starter and a team player

Some experience working in the landscaping area would also be desirable, as would design skills for basic designs during the sales process.

Due to the large amount of work undertaken in schools and child care centres, all applicants will need to have a working with children check clearance (or be able to obtain once prior to commencement).
