We are seeking a highly experienced Senior Estimator to join our growing preconstruction team. This individual will lead the estimating process for multifamily residential projects ranging from $20M–$100M across Southwest Florida. The ideal candidate brings strong technical expertise, deep knowledge of the local market, and a collaborative mindset that aligns with our culture of excellence and integrity.

Key Responsibilities:
  • Lead the end-to-end estimating process for multifamily projects: conceptual, schematic, and final GMP/bid proposals
  • Develop accurate quantity takeoffs using digital tools (Bluebeam, PlanSwift, OST, etc.)
  • Analyze drawings, specifications, and project requirements to develop complete cost estimates
  • Solicit and evaluate subcontractor bids, ensuring full scope coverage and accurate pricing
  • Participate in design review meetings, providing real-time value engineering and constructability input
  • Work closely with project managers, superintendents, and executives to align preconstruction with execution strategy
  • Track and update historical cost data, vendor pricing, and market conditions to maintain estimate accuracy
  • Prepare and present estimates to executive leadership and ownership groups
  • Mentor junior estimators and collaborate with the precon team to uphold quality and consistency
Qualifications:
  • 8–12 years of construction estimating experience, including significant multifamily project work (podium, garden-style, mid-rise, or wrap)
  • Bachelor's degree in Construction Management, Engineering, Architecture, or related field preferred
  • Strong understanding of project delivery methods (Design-Build, CM-at-Risk, Lump Sum)
  • Experience with Procore, Bluebeam, On-Screen Takeoff, or similar construction software
  • Demonstrated ability to develop conceptual budgets from limited design documentation
  • Excellent communication, negotiation, and time management skills
  • Local subcontractor market knowledge (Southwest Florida) a strong plus
What We Offer:
  • Competitive base salary + annual bonus
  • Health, dental, vision, and 401(k) with match
  • PTO and paid holidays
  • Supportive, collaborative team culture
  • Long-term project pipeline across the region
