Common questions

Answered plainly

Why are estimators so hard to hire in NZ?

It is a small professional community, most are settled, and demand rises every time tendering activity lifts. Direct approach recruitment, realistic banding and a fast process are what actually work.

Do you recruit estimators for civil as well as building?

Yes, both, including three waters, roading and subdivision civil works, plus commercial and residential construction.

Can you fill QS and estimating together?

Often, yes. The talent pools overlap, and we frequently fill both roles for the same employer from one search.

Also from AR Staffing

Commercial team, complete.

We recruit the QS and commercial managers who take over once the tender is won.
