Position Summary As Estimator, you will play a key role in how AIIM designs solutions, wins new business, and helps clients find better ways to produce and deliver their communications.
This is not a traditional estimating role. We are looking for someone who combines deep production knowledge with curiosity, technology, data, and a solutions mindset. You will work directly with Sales, Client Success, Production, Purchasing, and our clients to understand what they are trying to accomplish and determine the smartest way for AIIM to deliver it.
AIIM operates across digital print, direct mail, large format, finishing, fulfillment, data-driven communications, and integrated solutions. Strong large format estimating experience is required because it is an important capability for this role, but you will work across AIIM as One AIIM, not within a large format or legacy business silo.
You will also play an important role in the continued implementation and evolution of AIIM's new ERP platform, helping us build standardized estimating, costing, and production practices that are data-driven, scalable, and increasingly automated.
Key Responsibilities Help Sales Win & Create Client Value
Get involved early in opportunities—not simply when a quote is required
Work with Sales and Client Success to understand what the client is trying to accomplish and help design the best solution
Become a trusted resource to clients by helping them find better, smarter, and more efficient ways to produce and deliver their communications
Challenge specifications and historical approaches when there is a better way
Recommend alternative materials, formats, quantities, production methods, finishing, fulfillment, or workflows that improve the client outcome
Participate in client meetings, RFPs, presentations, and significant opportunities where your expertise can help AIIM win
Look across all of AIIM's capabilities rather than defaulting to how a job has historically been produced
Estimating & Production Solutions
Prepare accurate, timely, competitive, and profitable estimates across AIIM's capabilities
Bring strong expertise in large format estimating, while developing and applying knowledge across the broader AIIM platform
Develop estimates across digital print, direct mail,
large format, finishing, fulfillment, and related communication programs
Determine the best production approach based on quality, timing, capacity, cost, scalability, and client requirements
Evaluate materials, labour, equipment, finishing, fulfillment, outsourcing, freight, installation, and other requirements
Identify opportunities to simplify production, reduce touchpoints, eliminate waste, and improve repeatability
Evaluate outsourced production when it provides a better overall solution for AIIM and the client
ERP, Data & the Future of Estimating
Become a power user and champion of AIIM's new ERP platform
Help build the estimating standards, production rates, material costs, routings, and assumptions that will support AIIM's future operating model
Use estimate-to-actual data to continuously improve costing and production decisions
Help move AIIM away from spreadsheets, tribal knowledge, and individual estimating practices toward one standardized, system-driven approach
Look for opportunities to use automation, data, and technology to make estimating faster, more accurate, and more scalable
Question existing processes and actively contribute ideas for how AIIM can estimate and produce work differently
Ensure estimates can flow effectively from chance through order entry, production, and final costing
Support AIIM's broader objective of One AIIM. One system. One process.
Production & Cross-Functional Collaboration
Maintain strong practical knowledge of digital print, direct mail, large format, finishing, fulfillment, and related production processes, with particular depth in large forma
