Estimator I

$55k - $70k

Pike Construction

As our Estimator, you’ll be the brains behind the bid. You’ll work closely with project teams, subcontractors, and suppliers to develop competitive, detailed, and accurate cost estimates that lay the foundation for successful commercial, institutional, and industrial projects.

You’ll thrive here if you:

Are a proactive self-starter who thrives on ownership and responsibility.

Can independently develop full estimates with little oversight.

Want to contribute to a collaborative team that values precision, creativity, and long‑term partnerships.

Key Responsibilities:

Lead estimates from concept through final submission on diverse projects.

Analyze drawings, specs, and scopes to develop clear and accurate cost breakdowns.

Prepare detailed quantity takeoffs and pricing for labor, materials, and equipment.

Coordinate with subcontractors and suppliers to ensure market‑competitive pricing.

Participate in value engineering to optimize scope and cost‑efficiency.

Support strategic bid decisions and present estimates with confidence and clarity.

What You Bring to the Table:
  • Bachelor’s Degree from an accredited institution in related field; and/or equivalent of minimum 2 years’ equivalent experience or equivalent combination of education and experience, required.
  • Construction/Engineering degree, preferred.
  • Accomplished in three (3) trades, required.
  • Strong command of construction industry practices, materials, and labor markets.
  • Proficiency in estimating software and Microsoft Office Suite.
  • Excellent time management, communication, and organizational skills.
Why Pike?

At Pike Construction Services, you’re not just joining a team — you’re becoming part of a legacy. We’ve built our reputation on integrity, collaboration, and delivering exceptional results. Here, your voice matters, your expertise is valued, and your work makes a tangible impact.

Join us to work with a team that respects tradition, embraces innovation, and builds for the future — together.

The salary range for this position is $55,000 - $70,000. This range reflects the minimum and maximum target for new hire salaries for the position. Within the range, individual pay is determined by work location and additional factors, including job‑related skills, experience, and relevant education or training.
