Key Requirements: Responsibilities: Lead the Estimating Department, ensuring bids align with company capabilities, operational goals, and profitability targets. Manage and mentor estimators and assistants through all bid phases, including take-offs, subcontractor quotes, cost analysis, and bid preparation.

Evaluate drawings, blueprints, and geological data to prepare accurate cost estimates and assess project feasibility. Build and maintain client relationships, attend meetings, and participate in business development to expand our client base. Visit construction sites to evaluate performance and methods for future estimating improvements. Supervise all hiring, training, assignments, and performance management for the Estimating Department. Why This Role: This is not just an estimating position — it’s a department leadership opportunity for someone ready to direct strategy, develop talent, and shape the company’s preconstruction future. Qualifications: Bachelor’s degree in Civil Engineering, Construction Management, or related field (or equivalent experience). Proficiency with HCSS HeavyBid , takeoff software, spreadsheets, and project management tools. Strong mathematical skills, including probability, statistics, geometry, and trigonometry, with the ability to apply complex formulas to estimating.
