Your new role


This contractor is looking for a Senior Estimator to join their Estimating team of 5 currently. The current team consists of 4 Junior Estimators and a Senior overseeing the group. This individual has the opportunity to take on management experience within the group down the road, or, if they would prefer to remain on the technical side, can take on the larger, more challenging projects whilst continuing to support the bidding pipeline.


You can expect the following on a day-to-day basis:

• Analyzing and interpreting architectural plans / blueprints / construction drawings


• Breaking down the scope of works


• Performing material take-offs


• Managing RFP's / RFI's

What you'll need to succeed


To be successful in this role as a Senior Estimator you should have at least 5 years' experience in the industry delivering a mix of GMP, lump-sum, or negotiated estimates for a range of projects across the tri-state. You will be able to build on existing sub-contractor relationships and, ideally, have a Civil Engineering, Architecture or Construction Management degree. Having experience in On-Screen Take-Off, and Procore are not essential, but highly desirable.
