Throughout the start of your career within the CMG, you will learn and develop to become a vital member of the team, as well as leading a small team to provide robust support within a complex project and portfolio environment.

Want to hear what one of our current Estimators thinks about their experience within the team?

“I joined the Cost Management Group in June 2023. I must admit that taking on a new challenge in a new organisation made me doubt if I had made the right choice, but since my first day I have never looked back.”

In the SDA, continuous professional development is actively encouraged. You will have access to a defined development pathway including professional accreditation from ICEAA, ACostE and APM and ongoing support to prosper. You will integrate with accomplished, multi-disciplinary teams and migrate across several projects in the portfolio, gaining full exposure to the organisation and operating at the core of what we do. You will collaborate to solve challenges unique to our industry and, by linking with fellow minds and allies across the world, will provide a significant contribution to the success of our projects.
