Reporting: Directly report to the Company Founder to review project margins and bid accuracy.

The Ideal Candidate:
Experience: Proven track record in residential construction estimating (ideally within Ireland/UK).

Local Knowledge: Familiarity with the Dublin construction market and material costs is a significant advantage.

Software Skills: Proficiency in estimating software (e.g., PlanSwift, Bluebeam) and Microsoft Excel.

Communication: Excellent English (written and verbal) as you will be communicating with local suppliers and the internal team.
Flexibility: A "can-do" attitude—happy to jump in and help the office admin during peak times.

Project Details:
Location: Remote (Preference for candidates familiar with North Dublin/Irish building regs).
Duration: Starting as a project-based role with the potential to move into a long-term position.
