Company Description

Archirodon, having earned its reputation as a reliable and respected international contractor for more than a half century in the Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC) market, continues to create value to its stakeholders by executing complex EPC projects worldwide, in recognition of its superior standards of performance.

We have an outstanding record in completing major Energy, Marine, Infrastructure and Defense & Security projects around the globe and we pride ourselves on delivering over the years the kind of reliability and trust that the client has the right to expect from a major EPC contractor.

We are constantly growing and are currently looking for a reliable and highly motivated Chief Estimator (Civil & Architectural) to join our top-qualified and knowledgeable team at our Regional Office in New Cairo, Egypt.

Build towards excellence. Join our worldwide journey.

What you will need to do:

  • Lead the estimating team while remaining actively involved in preparing detailed estimates from first principles, including drawing reviews, quantity takeoffs, resource requirements, productivity assumptions, unit-rate build-ups, and final tender pricing.
  • Prepare detailed estimates and quantity takeoffs for civil and architectural works.
  • Develop unit rates covering labor, materials, equipment, and subcontract costs.
  • Review tender drawings and specifications, including applicable USACE requirements and U.S. codes and standards.
  • Obtain and evaluate supplier and subcontractor quotations.
  • Lead and support the estimating team while remaining actively involved in estimate preparation.
  • Coordinate with other departments to deliver complete, accurate, and timely tender submissions.

What you will need to have:

  • Bachelor’s degree in Civil Engineering, Construction Management, Quantity Surveying, or a related discipline.
  • Minimum 15 years of relevant construction estimating experience, with substantial experience in civil and architectural works.
  • Demonstrated ability to lead an estimating team while personally preparing and checking detailed estimates.
  • Strong familiarity with U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) requirements, tender documents, and construction specifications, as well as applicable U.S. codes and standards, including IBC, ACI, ASTM, and NFPA, as relevant to the project scope.
  • Proven ability to interpret drawings and specifications, calculate quantities, and develop defensible unit-rate analyses.
  • Advanced proficiency in Microsoft Excel and digital quantity takeoff and estimating software.
  • Strong written and spoken English, commercial judgment, attention to detail, and ability to work under tight tender deadlines.

What would be nice to have:

  • Experience in international construction projects, particularly U.S. government, military, embassy, or other institutional facilities.
  • Previous estimating experience on USACE or U.S. Department of State/OBO projects.
  • Experience with both design-build and design-bid-build contracts.
  • Familiarity with CSI Master Format and, where required, USACE estimating systems such as MII/MCACES.

You are someone who:

  • Demonstrates strong analytical skills and sound commercial judgment.
  • Pays close attention to detail and accuracy.
  • Has strong leadership skills and the ability to support an estimating team.
  • Takes a hands-on approach to preparing and reviewing detailed estimates.
  • Can work effectively under tight tender deadlines.
  • Communicates effectively and collaborates with other departments.

What is in it for you:

Local package is on the shelf, yet the real joy comes from being a member of smart and passionate teams, within an international leading EPC Group on a mission that matters. We create mega construction projects - literally around the globe - with meaningful impact on the local communities for the years to come. At Archirodon, you will find a proud, productive and human-centric culture, caring for and building on our people and their development!

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
