Senior Estimator / Quantity Surveyor - High‑End Residential & Luxury Renovations
Design and Build ·www.search-4.com.au
Apply direct
Are you a high‑end residential estimator who thrives on architectural detail, complex renovations, and full financial ownership of projects?
This role goes far beyond standard estimating — you’ll operate as the financial engine room of every build, ensuring real‑time cost control across some of Perth’s most exclusive homes.
Why This Role Stands Out
You’ll be the financial anchor from concept to completion, partnering closely with the in‑house design team and construction leadership.
You’ll join a builder known for craftsmanship, architectural excellence, and a collaborative culture. With a steady flow of premium projects and a leadership team that values financial rigour, this is a rare opportunity to step into a role with real influence and long‑term growth.
This is a rare opportunity — don’t miss it.
