The essence of the profession remains the same, but do you have ideas on how it can be done differently, faster, or better? Then we would love to hear them!

What you'll do

As a Mechanical Engineering Estimator, you are the financial conscience for the mechanical engineering disciplines. You hold ultimate responsibility for accurate cost estimates and actively contribute to experience figures, so that our estimates become even more precise. You make use of your network and know the market players within commercial building well.

You will primarily work on projects where Nexton can truly make a difference - not on standard specification works, but on innovative integrated projects. In this role, you will work closely with your team.

You are open to exploring the boundaries of digitizing the design and estimation process together with colleagues. This not only makes your work more efficient but also enables you to focus on the aspects that truly matter in cost formation.
