Join a growing, family-run builder delivering high-quality custom granny flats across the Gold Coast.
BCC Homes is a trusted local builder specialising in custom granny flats and residential projects. With a strong pipeline of work and a reputation for quality, transparency, and a great build experience, we're looking for a motivated Junior Estimator to join our close-knit team and grow their career in construction estimating.
About the Role
As a Junior Estimator at BCC Homes, you'll work closely with our Directors and senior team to support the estimating and pre-construction process. This is a hands-on role suited to someone early in their construction career who is detail-oriented, eager to learn, and keen to build strong foundations in residential estimating.
You'll be involved in preparing estimates, reviewing plans, liaising with suppliers, and supporting the sales-to-construction handover process — with structured training and mentoring provided.
Key Responsibilities
* Assist with preparing cost estimates, take-offs, and pricing for residential projects
* Review architectural plans, specifications, and documentation
* Request and compare supplier and subcontractor pricing
* Support the preparation of quotes, budgets, and variations
* Maintain accurate records within estimating and job management systems (e.g. Buildertrend, Bluebeam)
* Work closely with the Directors and wider team to ensure smooth project handover
We're Looking For Someone Who:
* Has 1–2 years' experience in construction, estimating support, or a building administration role
(or a relevant construction qualification with strong practical exposure)
* Has a basic understanding of residential construction processes and terminology
* Is confident with numbers and has excellent attention to detail
* Can read and interpret plans
* Is organised, reliable, and able to manage multiple tasks and deadlines
* Is comfortable using Excel, Word, and email systems
* Has a positive attitude and a genuine desire to learn and develop
Desirable (but not essential):
* Exposure to estimating software such as Buildertrend or Bluebeam
* Experience assisting with take-offs or supplier pricing
* Studies in Building & Construction, Quantity Surveying, or similar
* Experience working with suppliers or subcontractors
What We Offer:
* Structured training and mentoring from experienced builders
* Exposure to the full estimating and pre-construction process
* Clear pathways for progression into an Estimator role
* Supportive, professional, and close-knit team environment
* Long-term career opportunity with a growing Gold Coast builder
