Description

Looking for Philippines-based candidates Job Role: Mechanical Services Estimator Compensation range: $2,000 - $3,000 AUD/month Engagement type: Independent Contractor Agreement Work Schedule: This role is expected to align with the AU business hours (approx. 9 AM - 5 PM, Monday to Friday) for collaboration, but as a contractor, you’ll have flexibility in how you manage your time. Who We Are: At Hunt St, we help Australian companies hire top remote talent in the Philippines. For this role, you will be engaged directly by the client as an independent contractor. We are not an outsourcing agency. All of our roles are 100% remote so you'll be able to work from home. Who The Client Is: The client is a well-established Australian provider of air conditioning, refrigeration, and mechanical services, supporting residential, commercial, and industrial clients with installation, maintenance, and project delivery solutions. They have built a strong reputation for delivering high-quality workmanship, reliable service, and tailored solutions, with a focus on long-term client relationships, operational excellence, and customer satisfaction across a diverse range of industries. Role Overview: The Estimator prepares accurate air conditioning and ventilation designs and quotes for company’s high end residential and commercial projects. The estimator turns architectural, drawings and tender documents into a clear design (using Plandroid) and a priced quote (using Simpro). The goal is fast, correct, profitable quotes that the sales team can submit to builders, developers and facilities clients and follow up. Key Responsibilities: Read and understand building plans, mechanical drawings, specifications and tender documents. Design air conditioning and ventilation systems in Plandroid (correct equipment sizing, duct layout, zoning, ventilation). Choose the right brands, equipment and system types for each project. Build accurate quotes in Simpro using the correct costs, labour and margins. Follow the company’s estimating standards and templates every time. Allow for commercial requirements: staging, access, lead times and any tender conditions. Keep quotes consistent, tidy and on-brand. Ask questions early when plans, specs or tender requirements are unclear. Hand the finished quote to the sales team and provide a short summary so they can submit and follow up. Keep records and files organised in the shared drive and in Simpro. Meet agreed turnaround times for each quote, including tender deadlines. Experience in commercial HVAC estimating, or strong technical drawing / mechanical background. Able to read construction plans, mechanical drawings and specifications. Comfortable learning software (Plandroid and Simpro will be taught). Good written English — clear enough to write quote notes, tender clarifications and emails. Accurate, detail-focused and reliable with deadlines (including tender deadlines). Good internet connection and a quiet place to work. Nice to have Previous Plandroid or Simpro experience. Knowledge of commercial brands and systems (Daikin, Mitsubishi VRF, ducted, etc.). Experience quoting tenders and working to builder / developer requirements. Understanding of ventilation and commercial mechanical requirements. Performance Expectations Area Accuracy: Designs and quotes are correct the first time, with few revisions needed. Speed: Commercial quotes turned around within the agreed time, and always before tender deadlines. Margin: Quotes are priced to hit the company’s target margins (not under-priced). Consistency: Every quote follows the company’s templates and standards. Communication: Clear notes for sales; questions asked early, not after a mistake. Work Arrangement & Expectations: This is a remote role that will be set up as an independent contractor engagement. To ensure alignment and transparency, successful candidates will be expected to: Disclose any existing ongoing roles or client work Reflect this engagement on their LinkedIn profile (clearly marked as “Independent Contractor”)
