Junior Estimator

HV Talent Group is partnering with a well-established, rapidly growing construction organization seeking a dynamic Junior Estimator to support its preconstruction and estimating team.

• Help maintain pricing databases, estimate templates, clarifications, and subcontractor contact information.
• Support document review, addenda tracking, drawing management, and bid package coordination.
• Prepare spreadsheets and basic pricing analyses under the guidance of senior estimating staff.
• Participate in post-bid reviews and help capture lessons learned for future pursuits.

What strong candidates bring:

• Strong Excel skills and comfort working carefully through plan sets and scope details.
• Willingness to learn quantity takeoffs, trade scoping, and bid-leveling discipline.
• Construction Management, Engineering, or related educational background preferred.
• Experience with Bluebeam or estimating software is a plus.

Why this role matters:

This is a good entry point for building more bench strength behind the senior preconstruction team.
