At DominionX & RoyalX - we are committed to building a culture of eXcellence, innovation, and collaboration. We believe in empowering our employees to reach their full potential and we are dedicated to providing them with the support, resources, and opportunities needed to thrive in their role.
Are you looking to Build upon your accomplished X Career?
If you desire to be an integral part of a leading organization in the construction space, we are looking for a dynamic, relationship-building, results-oriented leader. In this role, the right individual will guide the Estimating and Purchasing activities within our growing organization.
About the role
The role of the Chief Estimator will provide the principal leadership for the estimating and purchasing teams. The individual in this role will oversee the estimating and procurement processes for all projects bid and awarded, establish the company’s standardized procedures & best practice methods, and train team members to use the same. The Chief Estimator will significantly influence supplier pricing and incentive programs, “Get Work” procedures, processes and estimating techniques, and oversee departmental standards for deliverables such as bid packages, deliverable formats, and budget tracking tools. The Chief Estimator will lead the Estimating, Procurement, and Purchasing Teams and oversee department standards for deliverables such as bid packages, deliverable formats, and budget tracking tools. Finally, the Chief Estimator will oversee the analysis of past performance on projects and establish estimating standards for all future estimates based on such analysis, assist in the oversight of the historical cost database, and determine the best tools for improving your team’s performance.
Main Objectives:

Residential, Commercial, and Multifamily construction industry pricing knowledge and established builder + supplier & manufacturer representative relationships will be a must and help us solidify effective (profitable) pricing, purchasing, and sales strategies. You will help manage the process all the way from invitation to bid, loading the project, submitting a bid, procuring project-related materials, and calibrating the “estimated” amounts of materials vs “actual” amounts of materials needed. You will also work closely with our Field Operations (“Do Work”) Team to ensure that all customer expectations are met throughout the entire project’s lifecycle (from pre-bid to post-construction).

- Manage and mentor a team of estimators, providing guidance, training, and performance reviews. Mentoring them and reviewing and confirming their proposal packages for quality and accuracy before submission to the customer.
- Lead team responsible for communicating Customer project schedules to suppliers and subcontractors and coordinating the material drops based on progress in the field (communicating all changes or delays for schedule adjustments).
- Work closely with the entire “Get Work” Team to establish a continuous feedback loop related to plan-by-plan performance to ensure the scope of work, material usage, a timeline of installation, and installation techniques are documented and updated correctly.
- Assess customer requirements and ensure that these are met consistently.
- Review project plans & specifications & coordinate with the team to confirm the complete scope.

- Lead team that monitors Requests for Information (ROI) to/from Customers + Suppliers.
