  • Experience with Procore, Bluebeam, On-Screen Takeoff, or similar construction software
  • Demonstrated ability to develop conceptual budgets from limited design documentation
  • Excellent communication, negotiation, and time management skills

  • PTO and paid holidays
  • Supportive, collaborative team culture
  • Long-term project pipeline across the region
