• Perform detailed quantity takeoffs across CSI Divisions 1–46
• Prepare conceptual and hard bid estimates, including general conditions and bid summaries
• Solicit and manage subcontractor/vendor pricing and coverage
• Build scopes of work and evaluate subcontractor proposals for completeness and accuracy
• Lead and participate in pre-bid meetings with internal teams and subcontractors
• Support project logistics planning, including phasing and scheduling considerations

• Strong understanding of construction means, methods, and cost structures
• Ability to lead and manage full-cycle estimates independently
• Experience developing subcontractor coverage and bid strategy in competitive markets
• Proficiency in estimating software (e.g., Timberline/Sage, OST) and Microsoft Office
• Experience with self-perform scopes (concrete, carpentry, etc.) is a plus
• Strong communication, organization, and leadership skills
• Must have a stable work history with a General Contractor

What We’re Looking For

• A strategic thinker who can win work—not just price it
• Someone who thrives in a fast-paced, collaborative environment
• Strong relationship-builder with subcontractors and internal teams
• Detail-oriented with the ability to see the “big picture” on complex projects

Compensation & Benefits

• Competitive base salary up to $180K+ (DOE & market-driven)
