While the company occasionally performs smaller projects and tenant fit-outs, their sweet spot is large commercial work above $10M . Project Types

Candidates already in the Boston area are strongly preferred.
However, relocation may be considered for the right senior-level estimator with strong drywall experience. Location

You will have the opportunity to:
• Lead estimating on major projects
