Are you an experienced Commercial Roofing Estimator looking for a company where you can settle in be valued for what you know and have a genuine long-term future

Were working with a well-established privately owned union commercial roofing contractor in West Chicago that is looking to add an experienced Senior Estimator to its team.

This is a smaller close-knit company with a strong reputation for tackling complex commercial industrial institutional and government roofing projects throughout the Chicago market. They arent looking to become another large corporate roofing operation. They have built their business around quality work strong relationships and experienced people who stay.

Theyre looking ahead and want to bring in someone who can become an important part of the companys next chapter.

What Youll Be Doing

Youll be responsible for estimating commercial roofing projects from initial review through bid submission including:

• Reviewing plans specifications and bid documents

• Completing takeoffs and preparing accurate estimates

• Estimating TPO EPDM PVC modified bitumen BUR and other commercial roofing systems

• Attending site visits and pre-bid meetings

• Working with suppliers and subcontractors on pricing

• Identifying project requirements logistics and potential challenges

• Working closely with project managers field operations and ownership

• Supporting project handoff once work is awarded

Their projects include universities government facilities libraries manufacturing plants food production facilities research facilities and other technically demanding commercial environments.

If you enjoy taking projects beyond estimating and managing your own work through completion theyre open to that as wellbut you do not need to be an Estimator/PM.

What Theyre Looking For

Were looking for someone who knows commercial roofing and takes pride in putting together a solid estimate.

Ideally youll bring:

• 5 years of commercial roofing estimating experience

• Strong knowledge of low-slope commercial roofing systems

• Experience with TPO EPDM PVC modified bitumen and/or BUR

• Ability to read plans specifications and scopes

• Experience with commercial industrial institutional or government projects

• Strong communication and attention to detail

• A collaborative approach and willingness to work closely with a smaller team

Union roofing experience is a plus but not required.

They currently use The EDGE but EDGE experience is not required . If youre a strong roofing estimator theyll train you on the software.

Why This One Is Different

$100000$140000 base salary
100% company-paid health insurance
Health deductible reimbursement program
5% employer 401(k) contributioneven if you contribute nothing
Additional compensation opportunities
Potential path to employee ownership
Relocation available for the right candidate

The ownership opportunity is particularly interesting.

There are currently seven employee-owners and several senior partners will be transitioning toward retirement over the coming years. Someone joining the business now has an opportunity to establish themselves as part of that next generation of leadership and potentially participate in ownership down the road.

Looking for Your Long-Term Home

If youve spent years building your commercial roofing experience and youre at the point where stability good people challenging projects and having a future with the company matter this is worth a conversation.

You dont have to be actively looking.

If youre a strong commercial roofing estimator who would consider the right long-term opportunity in the Chicago market Id be happy to tell you more.

Out-of-state candidates are welcome. Relocation will be considered for the right person.
