* Ability to accurately interpret architectural and roofing plans
* Ability to produce accurate roofing and solar estimates
* Strong understanding of integrated solar roofing systems
* Experience with battery systems is a bonus
* Experience with **Simpro** software would be highly regarded
* Strong written and spoken English communication skills
* Ability to work independently and manage workflow efficiently

* Reviewing incoming plans and enquiries
* Producing preliminary roofing and solar estimates
* Completing roofing and solar takeoffs
* Assisting with integrated solar system layouts
* Supporting proposal preparation and calculations
* Reviewing quantities, specifications, and materials
* Assisting with workflow integration into Simpro over time
Communication & Systems:
As we are an Australian company dealing with clients, suppliers, architects, and internal staff daily, clear English communication is critical for this role.
Applicants must be confident communicating in English both verbally and in writing. While bilingual applicants are welcome, professional-level English is required.
We also operate using:
* Internal knowledge base systems
* Slack for daily communication
* Structured digital workflows
* Cloud-based estimating and operational systems
The successful applicant must be comfortable working within organised digital systems and maintaining consistent communication with the team.
Ideal Candidate:
* Background in solar estimating, roofing estimating, or technical sales support
* Strong attention to detail
* Responsive and organised
* Comfortable working remotely
* Experience with high-end residential or architectural projects preferred
* Understanding of roofing systems, solar integration, and construction drawings
Important:
This role is specifically for high-end integrated solar roofing projects and architectural residential homes.
If you do not meet the above criteria or do not have relevant experience with solar estimating, takeoff software, roofing systems, or integrated solar systems, please do not apply, as applications without relevant experience will not be considered.
We are looking for a professional, detail-oriented candidate who can operate within a premium, design-focused environment and support a growing Australian company long term.
This is intended to become an ongoing working relationship for the right person.
