- Review estimation documents and basis of estimates for all consultant and contractor scopes of work, providing historical benchmarking information
- Define bid evaluation criteria for estimating and participate in bid reviews of consultants' and contractors’ work, ensuring consistent and high-quality results
- Integrate data and information from various service providers into one consolidated estimate, balancing quantities, hours, and costs by area and commodities
- Present estimates to Teck Project and Functional teams using PowerPoint and/or PowerBI platforms, including benchmarking analysis using Teck's historical project database
- Develop Owner's estimate development plans, estimates for owner staffing and completed scopes
- Align planner and scheduler on the requirements of the estimated development and project execution durations
- Ensure projects are set up to collect appropriate data to support the in-house process
- Request historical data from completed estimates and actual execution costs from project teams, making vital adjustments before loading into Teck's database
- Regularly review and update Teck Projects Estimating guidelines and standards based on industry standards
- Travel to estimating service provider offices and project sites as required (North and South Americas)

- Post-secondary degree or diploma in engineering, construction, or building trades
- A minimum of 5 to 10 years estimating experience from General Contractor, EPCM/EPC, and/or Owner organizations, preferably in the mining industry
- Proven understanding of project management and project control techniques and principles

- Experience working within multiple disciplinary teams (engineering, construction, project controls, contracts & procurement etc.)
- Excellent verbal and written communication skills
- Strong critical thinking and problem-solving abilities
- Proficient cost flow analysis, and assisting in developing cost control baselines/control budgets are advantageous
