About The Opportunity

WesTrac is looking for an experienced Estimator to join our Tomago Hydraulics Workshop, supporting the overhaul and refurbishment of critical hydraulic components used across our Caterpillar fleet.

  • Liaise with Workshop Supervisors, trades and internal stakeholders to clarify work requirements
  • Ensure estimates align with pricing structures, labour allowances and parts availability
  • Maintain accurate records and documentation within estimating and ERP systems
  • Support continuous improvement in estimating accuracy, turnaround times and processes

Skills And Experience

  • Experience in an Estimator, Planner or similar role within a workshop, mining or heavy equipment environment
  • Mechanical aptitude: hydraulics experience (highly regarded)
  • Ability to interpret technical information, inspection reports and scopes of work (highly regarded)
  • High attention to detail with strong numerical and analytical skills
  • Confident communicator able to work effectively with trades and stakeholders
