Vacant job

Future Estimating Engineer Wanted for Our Gothenburg Team!

Do you want to help develop Peab Foundation in Greater Gothenburg – while taking a major step in your career? Do you have experience from civil engineering projects and are curious to deepen your knowledge in estimating? With us, you get the chance to build on your technical competence and develop into a truly sharp estimating engineer. We offer the opportunity to work closely with an experienced mentor and a team with high competence in foundation work.

We are part of Peab Civil Engineering and have approximately 150 employees across the country. With us, you get to help build the foundation – literally – for important societal projects. We offer a workplace where you can develop, take responsibility, and have a say.

You will become part of a team of 40 people, consisting of both office staff and skilled workers. The group has deep experience in foundation work and is characterized by humility, openness, and humor. Here we collaborate closely, share knowledge, and support each other – whether it concerns technology, estimating, or project issues.

Your future manager, Johan Hjortbrink, is a clear and reliable leader who values openness and participation. He actively works to build trust, delegate responsibility, and remain close as support.

About the Position

We are looking for someone with a few years of experience in a production or estimating role within the civil engineering industry, preferably with elements of foundation work. You do not need to have worked with estimating previously – with us, you get the opportunity to learn the job in depth, and you will have access to a mentor who gives you the best possible start.

We work with a wide variety of projects in the Gothenburg area, and your workplace will be at our office in Gunnilse. As an estimator with us, you will primarily work with estimating and tendering, especially in piling and sheet piling. You will be a key person in the early stages of projects and are responsible for:

• Market monitoring and work to identify new business opportunities
• Contact with customers and subcontractors
• Reviewing project documentation and drawings
• Preparation of tender, contract, and production estimates
• Review and analysis of project needs
• Documentation and follow-up of projects
• Support to site managers in procurement and estimating issues
• Support to production in production planning and project economics

Requirements for the Position

• Technical or economic education (e.g., Master of Science in Engineering or equivalent)
• Good knowledge of Swedish in speech and writing
• Experience with civil engineering projects

Merits

• Experience with foundation work
• Experience with estimating work
• Experience with MAP and BlueBeam
• Experience with submitting text-based tenders

About You:

You thrive when solving problems and analyzing complex documentation, and your numerical ability helps you see the details that really matter. Structure and planning come naturally to you, which means you keep on track even when multiple deadlines approach simultaneously.

A business-like and trust-inspiring approach makes you easy to collaborate with and creates good relationships around you. Curiosity and openness drive you to understand the big picture and appreciate the value of well-functioning collaborations, both internally and externally.

Your commitment to your work is clearly visible, as is your sense for numbers and economic relationships. Since we work with many text-based tenders, it is also an advantage if you are skilled at handling large amounts of information and can compile clear and well-formulated texts.

As a person, you recognize yourself in our value words: down-to-earth, developmental, personal, and reliable. And most importantly: even if you do not have estimating experience today, you have the will – we will help you with the rest. With both a mentor and experienced colleagues, you get the best possible conditions to develop into a sharp estimating engineer.
