We’re hiring a Senior Estimator to lead pricing on complex ICI projects and bring consistency to how we win work. This role is ideal for someone who can build accurate, defendable estimates, challenge assumptions early, and partner with Operations to ensure what we sell is what we can successfully deliver.

What You’ll Own
Produce full-scope estimates (conceptual through tender) across ICI projects
Lead take-offs, subcontractor solicitation, bid leveling, and scope reconciliation
Identify risk, prospects, and value-engineering options that protect margin and schedule
Build explicit pricing narratives and proposal packages that clients can trust
Collaborate with Precon/PMs/Supers to create realistic schedules, logistics plans, and execution strategies
Improve estimating systems: templates, historical cost data,



lessons learned, and supplier relationships

What We’re Looking For
7+ years estimating experience in an ICI General Contracting environment
Robust understanding of scopes: civil/structural, architectural, mechanical/electrical coordination, finishes, and site logistics
Confident communicator who can negotiate, ask the hard questions, and present pricing logically
Detail-driven with strong judgement—accurate, rapid, and calm under deadlines
Proficiency with common estimating tools (e.g., Bluebeam, OST, Excel, estimating software)

Why This Role Matters

You’ll directly influence what we win—and how profitably we deliver it—by building estimates that are accurate, strategic, and aligned with real-world execution.
