  • Ensure cost compliance and estimate completeness while minimizing subcontractor questions and scope gaps.
  • Organize and manage preliminary project buyout, including bid packages and detailed subcontractor scopes of work.
  • Develop preliminary material estimates for lumber, drywall, brick, and other major construction materials.
  • Obtain and analyze multiple bids across project scopes to ensure competitive pricing.
  • Assist with preparation and refinement of final project budgets.
Must-have:
  • 5+ years in estimating/preconstruction
  • Direct experience estimating ground-up multifamily/apartment projects
  • Experience working for a GC, multifamily builder, or developer-builder
  • Strong subcontractor bid solicitation and bid leveling experience
  • Ability to create budgets from early design documents
  • Strong knowledge of wood-frame multifamily construction
  • Experience managing projects through GMP or final contract pricing
  • Comfortable working directly with owners, architects, and subcontractors
Strong preferences:
  • Podium or mid-rise multifamily experience
  • Design-build experience
  • Value engineering experience
  • Experience managing junior estimators or a preconstruction team
  • Existing subcontractor relationships in the local market
Benefits
  • Competitive compensation with performance-based incentives/bonus
  • Professional, upbeat, and collaborative work environment
  • Generous paid time off, including vacation, sick, holidays, birthday, and volunteer time
  • Low-premium medical, dental, and vision coverage
  • Telemedicine access
  • Paid parental leave for eligible new parents
  • Flexible Spending Account (FSA)
