Form of workQueensland State Cost Manager
This is the career defining move for a preconstruction specialist with an entrenched local network.
Perhaps you are an Associate Director in a large consultancy that don’t recognise the value you are currently bringing to the table.
Or maybe you are a Lead Estimator in a bureaucratic client-side business that don’t allow for any influence or innovative thinking.
We think this is the most unique opportunity in the infrastructure space right now.
And it’s based in Brisbane!
GEDON™ are currently partnered with a multi-state, leading infrastructure advisory business that are establishing themselves in the fast-moving Queensland market after incredible success interstate.
This business has built an incredible reputation and a loyal client base across both the public and private sector in AU across a range of key growth sectors namely transport infrastructure (road and rail), mining, water and power.
A dynamic enterprise that has grown organically and from humble beginnings, they provide a vast range of services including high-level estimating and cost planning, risk analysis, detailed programming and claims advice to name a few.
But what this business is really known for is estimating.
With an incredible track record interstate, my client is expanding their operations into QLD and as such are seeking an Infrastructure State Cost Manager to help grow and develop the business, move into different growth areas and ultimately establish them as a key player in the industry over time.

The focus of the State Cost Manager in the interim is to be the lead resource in QLD and to carry out business development initiatives from their extensive network of clients in the transport, energy or water sector(s).
This is a role that allows for total autonomy, huge influence in the shape and direction of the business and the chance to play a massive part in the success of a recognizable name in the industry.
What background will suit this role?
Due to the nature of the position, this role will naturally lend itself to those who have experience on client-side operations either with an owner or a specialist consultancy / advisory firm based in Queensland
Those from a contractor background will also be considered however.
The candidate will more than likely come from a commercial or costing background with strong capabilities in front end, first principles estimating on large Queensland infrastructure projects – this is essential.
It is expected that you have at least 15 years of experience in costing / commercial position with first principles estimating being a mainstay in your career.
You will also have extensive experience on major projects in Queensland within transport infrastructure (preferably), water / utilities or energy sectors.
What person will suit this role?
Someone with ambition, drive, creativity, dogged attitude, vision…
This is a role that will offer a lot of autonomy and freedom to speak with leaders in a range of market sectors – someone that is a strategic thinker and planner.

Someone that isn’t afraid to be bold, take risks and say f*** it let’s go for it!
