BMS Estimator

Looking for Philippines-based candidates

Job Role: BMS Estimator

Compensation range: $2,000 AUD - $2,500 AUD / Monthly

Engagement type: Independent Contractor Agreement

Work Schedule: This role is expected to align with the AU business hours (approx. 9 AM - 5 PM, Monday to Friday) for collaboration, but as a contractor, you’ll have flexibility in how you manage your time.

Who We Are: At Hunt St, we help Australian companies hire top remote talent in the Philippines. For this role, you will be engaged directly by the client as an independent contractor. We are not an outsourcing agency. All of our roles are 100% remote so you'll be able to work from home.

Who The Client Is: We help businesses make their buildings smarter, more efficient and more sustainable.

With more than 20 years of industry experience, we specialise in building automation, energy management and optimisation, helping clients reduce operating costs, improve building performance and create better environments for occupants.

We combine technology, engineering expertise and practical experience to deliver solutions that are measurable, reliable and built for the long term. We work closely with clients and industry partners to solve complex challenges and unlock greater value from their buildings.

Role Overview: This is a hands-on BMS Estimator role for an experienced Building Management Systems and HVAC controls professional who can turn complex project documentation into accurate, commercially sound estimates. You’ll review mechanical, electrical and BMS drawings, specifications and equipment schedules, interpret control strategies and sequences, develop points schedules and controller selections, and assess BMS networks, field devices and third-party integrations including BACnet and Modbus.

Working closely with the estimating, engineering and project delivery teams, you’ll build detailed tender submissions covering materials, labour, engineering, commissioning and project management. You’ll also identify scope gaps, risks, exclusions and qualifications, review supplier quotations and prepare clear handover documentation for the Australian project team. Strong knowledge of HVAC plant and BMS architecture is essential, while experience with Reliable Controls and BidTracer or similar estimating software will be highly regarded.

Key Responsibilities: 

• Review mechanical, electrical and BMS drawings, specifications and equipment schedules.

• Interpret mechanical plant, HVAC systems and control requirements.

• Develop detailed BMS points schedules and controller selections.

• Estimate BMS network architecture, including BACnet/IP and BACnet MS/TP.

• Identify requirements for sensors, actuators, valves, dampers, VSDs, meters and other field devices.
