About the Role
As a Drafter & Estimator, you'll join our Business Development team, working directly with our architects to prepare working drawings (shop drawings) and develop project cost estimates.

- Calculate work volumes and estimate material and labor costs
- Coordinate with architects, engineers, and project managers to ensure drawings and estimates align with on-site realities
- Maintain and organize drawing and estimation documents in an accurate, systematic manner
Qualifications
- Minimum D3/Bachelor's degree in Civil Engineering, Architecture, or a related field
- Proficient in AutoCAD (required); familiarity with estimation software (advanced Excel or other RAB tools) is a plus
- Open to fresh graduates who are already skilled in drafting software, as well as candidates with 1-2 years of experience in construction drafting/estimation
- Detail-oriented, patient, and comfortable working with numbers
- Able to work both collaboratively and independently under clear deadlines
- Basic understanding of reading architectural and structural drawings is an advantage
Why Join SAFE Construction?
You'll learn directly from experienced architects and engineers, work on real projects from design through cost estimation, and become part of a growing team with a clear, structured way of working.
How to Apply
Send your CV, a portfolio of working drawings (if available), and a sample RAB/BoQ calculation you've worked on.
