Expert Application Advice
What this role involves
You will lead cost estimation for major energy projects across Nigeria, analyzing technical specs, market rates, and supply chain data to produce accurate budgets. Day-to-day, you’ll collaborate with engineering, procurement, and finance teams, review bids from contractors, and refine cost models as project scopes evolve.
Key skills to highlight
Showcase expertise in cost estimation software (e.g., CostX, Sage), familiarity with Nigerian energy sector pricing—especially for oil, gas, or renewables—and a track record of managing multi-million-dollar budgets. Strong analytical skills and experience with risk-adjusted cost forecasting are critical.
Taf4All CV tip
Add a “Project Costing Achievements” section listing 3-5 specific projects you’ve estimated, including contract value, accuracy level (e.g., within 5% of final cost), and any savings you identified. Use local examples, like a Lagos refinery upgrade or offshore pipeline job.
Before you apply
Verify this role on the company’s official website—Renaissance Africa Energy Company Limited—and never pay for applications or interviews. Scammers may pose as recruiters; insist on a direct company email or phone call.
🎯 Make your application ATS-ready
ATS (Applicant Tracking Systems) are the software recruiters use to automatically filter CVs before any human reads them. Our CV builder is specifically designed to pass these filters — and it takes under 3 minutes.

- •Never pay any amount of money — for a file, a training, a uniform, or an interview. A real employer never asks the candidate to pay.
- •Never send a photo of your ID card, passport, or banking details before you have physically verified the employer exists.
- •Always meet in a public place, during the day — never an isolated address, a private home, or a location you cannot verify in advance.
- •Tell a relative or friend exactly where you are going, with whom, and at what time — and share your live location if possible.
- •Search the company name online before going: a real business has a trace (website, reviews, other employees, an official address).
- •A salary that is far above the market rate for the position and the city is a red flag — be extra cautious.
