A bit about us:

Our client is a growing commercial construction management and general contracting firm known for delivering exceptional client experiences through collaboration, transparency, and innovative preconstruction services. Specializing in commercial, institutional, education, healthcare, municipal, mixed-use, and developer-led projects, this company partners with owners from the earliest stages of development to provide strategic guidance that drives successful outcomes.

Rather than simply building projects, this company builds long-term partnerships. Their preconstruction philosophy emphasizes budget certainty, value engineering, constructability reviews, scheduling, and proactive problem-solving to ensure projects are delivered on time and within budget. Their integrated approach has earned a reputation for responsiveness, accountability, and trusted client relationships.

Why join us?

This is an opportunity to join a collaborative and entrepreneurial team where your expertise has a direct impact on project success. As a Senior Estimator focused on developer clients, you will work remotely while partnering closely with ownership, project management, design professionals, and clients throughout the preconstruction process.

What makes this opportunity unique:

  • Remote work flexibility with the ability to support projects across multiple markets.
  • Opportunity to lead conceptual estimating and budgeting for high-profile commercial developments.
  • High level of autonomy with direct collaboration alongside executive leadership.
  • Strong emphasis on professional growth, mentorship, and continuous improvement.
  • Team-oriented culture built around transparency, accountability, and long-term relationships.
  • Opportunity to influence project strategy from initial concept through construction start.
  • Competitive compensation, comprehensive benefits, retirement plan with company match, paid time off, and performance-based incentives.

Job Details

The ideal candidate is an experienced commercial construction estimator with a strong understanding of developer-led projects and the ability to provide accurate conceptual budgets during the earliest phases of design.

Responsibilities
  • Lead conceptual estimating and preconstruction efforts for commercial development projects.
  • Prepare detailed conceptual budgets, schematic estimates, design development estimates, and final construction estimates.
  • Perform quantity takeoffs and comprehensive cost analyses.
  • Review drawings, specifications, and project documents to identify risks, opportunities, and cost-saving solutions.
  • Develop and present value engineering recommendations while maintaining project quality and design intent.
  • Collaborate with owners, architects, engineers, consultants, and internal project teams throughout the preconstruction process.
  • Solicit, evaluate, and level subcontractor and supplier proposals.
  • Develop scopes of work and assist with bid packaging and procurement strategies.
  • Maintain historical cost databases and market pricing intelligence.
  • Mentor junior estimators and contribute to continuous improvement initiatives within the estimating department.
  • Participate in client meetings, budget reviews, and project strategy discussions.
Qualifications
  • Bachelor's degree in Construction Management, Engineering, Architecture, or a related field preferred (or equivalent industry experience).
  • 8+ years of commercial construction estimating or preconstruction experience with a general contractor or construction manager.
  • Experience estimating developer-led commercial projects from conceptual design through GMP development.
  • Strong understanding of commercial construction methods, building systems, and current market pricing.
  • Experience with conceptual estimating, value engineering, cost modeling, and budget validation.
  • Proficiency with Bluebeam, Microsoft Office Suite, and digital takeoff/estimating software.
  • Experience with Sage Timberline, OST, Procore, or similar construction software is a plus.
  • Excellent communication and presentation skills with the ability to build trusted client relationships.
  • Strong organizational skills with the ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously.
  • Self-motivated professional capable of working independently in a remote environment while collaborating effectively with project teams.
  • Willingness to travel occasionally for client meetings, project kickoffs, and site visits as needed.
The ideal candidate is a strategic preconstruction professional who thrives in a collaborative environment, enjoys partnering directly with developers and owners, and is passionate about delivering accurate budgets that set projects up for long-term success.
