The role

What if you actively contribute ideas regarding the best approach, smart execution methods, and distinctive tender strategies? As a Senior Calculator, you are the pacesetter for the cost price. You know the contract, fathom the client's request, map out opportunities and risks, and help project teams make the right choices. In doing so, you are not just dealing with numbers, but precisely with the question: how can we execute this project smarter, better, more sustainably, or more efficiently?

What you'll do

Every project requires a different approach. Many of our projects have an integrated character. Therefore, you work not only with colleagues from BAM Infra Wegen, but also with specialists from BAM Civiel, BAM OV, BAM Techniek & Assetmanagement, and BAM Energie & Water. Within these multidisciplinary teams, you bring together different expertise, interests, and solutions into one feasible and competitive offer.

As an experienced estimator, you play an important role throughout the entire tender phase. You investigate scenarios, map out opportunities and risks, and translate choices regarding execution, planning, sustainability, and contract management into a realistic cost price. One time you work on a RAW specification or EMVI tender, another time on a UAV-gc contract, construction team, or specialized integral task.

In this role

  • You analyze contract documents, drawings, reports, and client requests and translate these into a realistic cost price estimate.
  • You map out opportunities, risks, and optimizations and develop various scenarios for the tender team.
  • You work intensively with project managers, site managers, work planners, tender managers, cost experts, and specialists from various BAM business units.
  • You participate in tender and EMVI sessions in which choices regarding planning, phasing, accessibility, execution, and sustainability are determined.
  • You request quotes from suppliers and partners and make balanced choices based on price, quality, risks, and feasibility.
  • You actively contribute ideas regarding innovative execution methods, sustainable solutions, and distinctive tender strategies.
  • You contribute to BAM's ambition for circular and emission-free construction.

Your work environment

You will join a close-knit team of tender managers, cost experts, and calculators in which collaboration is central. We share knowledge, help each other progress, and work daily with experts from BAM Infra Wegen as well as other BAM business units. It is precisely that integrality that makes the work challenging.

Our project portfolio is broad and diverse. A few examples:

Depending on your experience and interests and the upcoming tenders, we will look together at which projects best suit you.
