As a Senior Estimator, your role involves assessing bid specifications and drawings to ensure a comprehensive understanding of the project requirements for a successful bid and project acquisition. Additionally, you will actively engage with Trade Partners, facilitating prompt follow-ups to secure bids.

  • Develop and review subcontractors' scope of work, accepting, reviewing, and analyzing their quotes for optimal value.
  • Generate project bid status reports, ensuring compliance with specifications, contract Statements of Work, and Bid Invitations.
  • Present cost estimates in alignment with customer proposals, considering general and special conditions.
  • Craft scope specifications and requirements, input project schedules, perform quantity takeoffs and create cost summary sheets.
  • Maintain an accurate and current database with cost codes for historical data.
  • Review Company projects and estimates for accuracy verification.
  • Utilize relevant company and industry historical data for precise pricing estimates.
  • Transmit bid invitations efficiently through Building Connected.


What you will need to be successful:

  • Minimum of fifteen (15) years of relevant construction estimating experience of projects ranging from $500,000 to $100 million.
  • Diverse commercial project type experience is a must (i.e. tilt-wall, light industrial, high-rise multifamily, wood frame hospitality, healthcare, retail, or multi-story self-storage experience preferred)
  • Proficiency in BlueBeam and Excel.
  • Strong leadership, diplomatic, and motivational skills, capable of leading a team.
  • Proven ability to work creatively and analytically in a problem-solving environment, showcasing teamwork, innovation, and excellence.
  • Build and maintain relationships by engaging business leaders to establish credibility, solve problems, build consensus, and achieve objectives.
  • Excellent leadership, communication (written, verbal, and presentation), and interpersonal skills.
  • Proactively driven and decisive, demonstrating flexibility in the face of change and competing demands.
