Print Estimator / Project Manager

This is a role for someone who genuinely enjoys the craft of estimating. If you can read a job spec, see what it really needs, and price it accurately without breaking a sweat, you'll be in your element here. You'd own your quotes end-to-end, from first enquiry through to the solution that wins the job. And because the role stretches into account management and project management, you're not boxed into a single lane: you'd build real relationships with the clients you quote for and see jobs through to the finish. You’ll be joining an established print business, with a friendly, close-knit team; you wouldn’t be estimating in isolation. What you'd actually do • Manage customer enquiries and build genuine relationships with the people you quote for • Work out quotes from job specs, identifying what the client needs and the right solution to match • Track orders and work with production so deliverables land on time • Pitch in on scheduling, job tickets and processing orders when it's busy • Take on some account management and project management of existing clients What you need • Estimating experience, preferably using Print IQ • Print industry experience (preferred, and it'll get you up to speed fast) • Experienced quoting complex 'kitting' style retail projects • Wide format print / soft signage knowledge - quoting and products • Sharp attention to detail • Strong written and verbal communication, and the ability to build client relationships • The organisation to juggle competing deadlines without dropping the detail Negotiable for the right person, the remuneration guide is from $85,000+ ***You must have full working rights to work in Australia as visa sponsorship and relocation are not provided for this role.*** If this sounds like your next challenge, APPLY NOW with your resume and cover letter, outlining your achievements by demonstrating exactly how you meet the above criteria.
