The opportunity

This is a newly created opportunity for an early-career construction professional looking to grow beyond traditional estimating or project coordination into a role with end-to-end project ownership.

Reporting to the Vice President, Client Services, the Project Manager / Estimator will lead commercial architectural wall system projects from initial estimate through installation and project closeout. In this role, you will manage projects involving prefabricated wall systems, demountable walls, architectural glass, and operable walls, serving as the primary point of contact for clients throughout the project lifecycle.

You will be responsible for preparing accurate estimates, managing project execution, coordinating with internal teams, suppliers, and installation partners, and maintaining strong client relationships. Balancing technical expertise with exceptional organization and communication skills, you will ensure projects are delivered safely, on schedule, within budget, and to the highest quality standards.

This hybrid role is based in Mississauga, Ontario. During your first three months, you will primarily work from the office to build relationships, develop product knowledge, and become familiar with our processes. Following onboarding, you'll enjoy a flexible schedule that balances time between the office, client sites across the GTA, and remote work, depending on project requirements.

You enjoy solving problems, collaborating with clients and stakeholders, and keeping projects moving forward. You are organized, detail-oriented, and able to balance multiple priorities while maintaining quality and accuracy.

You communicate confidently and professionally, even when conversations become challenging. You know how to set expectations, build trust,



and follow through on commitments.

Most importantly, you are eager to learn. You want to develop your expertise in estimating, project management, and architectural wall systems while working alongside an experienced team that values collaboration and continuous improvement.

What’s in for you

Build your career. This is an prospect to expand beyond traditional estimating or project coordination into a role where you will own projects from the first client conversation through successful installation. You will gain experience across estimating, project management, construction coordination, and client relationship management while working alongside experienced leaders who will support your development.

Own your work. Rather than managing only one phase of a project, you will oversee the entire lifecycle. You will prepare estimates, coordinate project execution, manage client expectations, and see your work come to life on-site.

Work with innovative construction solutions. You will develop expertise in prefabricated architectural wall systems that provide flexible, sustainable alternatives to traditional construction methods. You will play a role in delivering solutions that help clients create adaptable commercial spaces.

Flexibility and rewards. After completing onboarding, you will enjoy a flexible work environment that supports a mix of office, site, and remote work. You will also have the chance to earn performance-based compensation tied to successful project delivery and profitability.

What you will do

You will complete material take-offs, develop pricing, coordinate vendor quotations, participate in site visits, and identify project risks, exclusions, and value engineering opportunities before work begins.
- Lead projects from start to finish. You will manage awarded projects through procurement, scheduling, shop drawings, RFIs, change orders, installation, and final closeout. You will monitor budgets, timelines, quality, and profitability while ensuring projects remain on track.
- Coordinate construction activities. You will work closely with contractors, architects, consultants, manufacturers, installers, and internal teams to coordinate project activities, resolve construction challenges, and ensure installations meet quality standards, manufacturer requirements, and applicable building codes.
- Build trusted client relationships. You will serve as the primary contact throughout each project, providing regular updates, managing expectations, resolving challenges professionally, and ensuring clients remain informed from estimating through completion.
- Continuously improve. You will contribute to improving estimating accuracy, project execution, and operational processes while continuing to build your expertise in architectural wall systems, construction practices,



and project management.

What you bring

- The construction experience. You have experience in commercial construction through estimating, project management, project coordination, or a related role. You understand how construction projects come together and are comfortable working with drawings, specifications, contractors, and multiple stakeholders. Experience with prefabricated construction, architectural interiors, demountable walls, or specialty wall systems would be an asset.

- The technical skills. You can read and interpret construction drawings and specifications and have experience completing take-offs and preparing estimates. You are comfortable using Microsoft Office and Bluebeam, and exposure to AutoCAD, Revit, or Microsoft Project would be considered an asset.
- The project management mindset. You are highly organized and capable of managing multiple priorities simultaneously. You plan ahead, communicate proactively, and balance competing deadlines while maintaining attention to detail and delivering quality work.
- The communication skills. You build credibility through clear, professional communication. You are comfortable managing client expectations, navigating challenging conversations, and collaborating with internal teams, contractors, consultants, and suppliers to keep projects moving forward.
- The drive to grow. You are eager to continue developing your estimating and project management skills while taking ownership of increasingly complex projects. You enjoy learning, adapting, and contributing to a collaborative, high-performing team.
