Phoenix Industrial Group is seeking an experienced Estimating Manager to lead our estimating function supporting heavy industrial fabrication, modularization, maintenance and field construction opportunities. We're looking for a hands-on estimating leader with a strong foundation in heavy industrial construction and fabrication who understands how complex, multidisciplinary work is scoped, priced, challenged and ultimately executed. The ideal candidate brings extensive estimating experience across mechanical, piping and structural scopes, with the ability to lead multidisciplinary bids involving fabrication, modularization, field construction and subcontracted work.

Electrical and instrumentation estimating experience is considered an asset.

Experience working with or bidding work for major oil and gas owners and operators such as Cenovus, Canadian Natural Resources (CNRL), Imperial Oil (IOL), Suncor, or similar organizations is highly valued. This isn't a role focused solely on managing the estimating department. You'll remain close to the work, reviewing and challenging estimates, identifying gaps and risk, guiding bid strategy and ensuring our estimates reflect how the work will actually be fabricated and constructed.

Phoenix Industrial

Group is a proudly Alberta-based, family-owned industrial contractor with more than 30 years of proven success in industrial construction, fabrication and maintenance. Our work supports major projects and operations across Alberta's oil and gas and heavy industrial sectors, and we've built our reputation on the principles of visibility, value and accountability. As we continue to grow, we're looking for an Estimating Manager who can strengthen our estimating capabilities, develop our people and help position Phoenix for the right opportunities.

Lead, mentor and develop a team of estimators while maintaining accountability for estimate quality, accuracy and deadlines Review and challenge estimates prepared by the team for completeness, accuracy, constructability and commercial risk Lead multidisciplinary bid teams and coordinate input from operations, fabrication, procurement, project management, quality, safety and senior leadership Maintain and continuously improve estimating standards, processes, templates,



historical cost data and productivity information Develop & Review Multidisciplinary Industrial Estimates Process piping and pipe fabrication Pipe racks, skids and process/equipment modules Mechanical equipment installation Field construction Brownfield construction, maintenance and turnaround work Electrical and instrumentation Review client scopes of work, drawings, specifications, P&IDs;, line lists, data sheets, bills of material, models, schedules and commercial requirements to establish a complete understanding of the work. Quantity and material takeoffs Workforce hours and crew compositions Material and equipment pricing Supplier and subcontractor pricing Assumptions, clarifications, qualifications, inclusions and exclusions Break tender packages into appropriate self-perform, supplier and subcontractor scopes Develop supplier and subcontractor RFQ packages and obtain competitive pricing Apply an understanding of shop fabrication versus field construction productivity and execution Evaluate constructability, sequencing, logistics, workforce requirements and site-specific conditions Support commercial clarifications, negotiations and post-bid discussions with clients Participate in site visits, tender meetings and project kick-offs as required Use historical productivity and cost data to improve estimate quality Develop junior and intermediate estimators and build technical capability across the team Work closely with operations and project teams to continuously improve the transition from estimate to execution 7 to 10+ years of progressively responsible estimating experience within heavy industrial construction, fabrication, mechanical contracting or a closely related environment ~ Extensive estimating experience involving mechanical, piping and/or structural fabrication and construction ~ Robust experience with multidisciplinary industrial bids involving fabrication, modularization and field construction ~ Experience working with or bidding work for major oil and gas producers/operators such as Cenovus, CNRL,



Imperial Oil, Suncor, or comparable clients ~ Strong understanding of both shop fabrication and field construction productivity and execution ~ Strong understanding of industrial construction methods, sequencing, constructability, logistics and workforce planning ~ Ability to interpret P&IDs;, piping isometrics, general arrangements, structural drawings, equipment drawings, line lists, specifications and 3D models ~ Experience with lump sum, unit-rate, T&M;, cost-reimbursable and budgetary estimates ~ Strong understanding of BOEs, commercial clarifications, risk, contingency, change management and subcontractor bid leveling ~ Advanced Microsoft Excel skills and experience with industrial estimating, scheduling and model-review software ~ Experience with Primavera P6, SmartPlant, Navisworks, Bluebeam or similar systems is considered an asset ~ Electrical and instrumentation estimating experience is considered an asset ~ You don't need to be the technical expert in every discipline we perform. You do need enough heavy industrial fabrication and construction knowledge to recognize missing scope, challenge labour and productivity assumptions, identify risk and provide meaningful direction to the estimating team.

The right person combines strong estimating discipline with practical construction knowledge, commercial awareness and the ability to develop others. A leadership role with direct influence on the projects Phoenix pursues and how we compete Exposure to major industrial fabrication, modularization, construction and maintenance opportunities Employee Assistance Program through TELUS Health Training and professional development opportunities On-site parking Pre-access drug and alcohol testing Occasional travel to client and project sites for site reviews, tender meetings and project kick-offs At Phoenix Industrial, we believe strong projects start with strong people. We invest in our teams and the communities where we work because industry knowledge, strong relationships and quality execution are fundamental to our long-term success.

If you bring heavy industrial estimating experience, solid technical knowledge and the ability to lead complex multidisciplinary bids from opportunity through execution, we'd like to hear from you. #
