A great workplace where your craftsmanship counts; at Ufkes, you get the space to help build projects that truly matter. We are down-to-earth and involved, with all the benefits of a stable organization in the background. We want to continue to innovate and grow and therefore offer you plenty of opportunities—you just have to grab them! In addition to hard work, having fun together is also part of it. And therefore, in addition to a good salary, you can expect an incredibly beautiful package of secondary employment benefits from us.

You can count on:

• A salary of € 4,500 to € 6,500 gross per month, depending on your experience;

• A company car;

• A company laptop and phone;

• Access to the VolkerWessels Academy to continue developing yourself, both personally and professionally;

• An active staff association that regularly organizes fun outings and activities, and our cozy drinks and BBQs.

At Ufkes Apeldoorn, we are looking for a Cost Estimator. In this role, you are primarily responsible for calculating the cost price of our construction projects. You actively participate in thinking about costs at the front end and make an active contribution to the project team.

With the benefits and security of a solid organization in the background, you can determine your own course and make an impact within Ufkes and this role of Cost Estimator. You will work on diverse projects that ensure you are challenged every single day.

As a Cost Estimator, you are responsible for creating construction cost estimates based on a preliminary/final design and you identify deviations or ambiguities in the application documents.

Additionally, you check the final contract documents against the budget data in collaboration with your project team.

And furthermore:

• Preparing estimates, element budgets, and work budgets;

• Retrieving information from Solibri regarding quantities and materials and, based on this, calculating the cost price of a project and delivering an accurate budget;

• Accurately documenting information regarding actual costs, key figures, and materials;

• Providing requested and unsolicited advice regarding cost efficiency;

• Responsible for version and document management regarding the calculation documents and recording the correct contract documents.

You are a driven personality, easy to approach, and a true self-starter. You are critical, make sharp cost price calculations, and know how to discuss these in a convincing manner with your stakeholders. You are able to create a good cost price structure and think along about smart solutions and potential risks

to make them transparent.

We are open to both an experienced profile and a more junior profile; for example, if you already have some experience as a Cost Estimator or Calculator, we would also love to get in touch with you.
