Estimator / Purchasing at Emerald City Winsupply

About Emerald City Winsupply

Who We Are: Emerald City Winsupply is a locally owned plumbing, HVAC and mechanical supply house in Kirkland and part of the Winsupply family of companies. We serve commercial and mechanical contractors and residential service plumbers across the Eastside and greater Seattle.

Built by People Who Care: We're growing fast and we move fast. We'll take someone who cares over someone with experience every time, and we'll teach you the business. Our team shares in what we build through profit sharing and the chance to own shares in the company.

The Opportunity

We're hiring an Estimator / Purchasing specialist to quote mid-to-large commercial and mechanical projects and keep material moving to the job. You'll work from plans and specs, buy through Winsupply's Shared Purchasing Solutions team and our vendors, and build quoting templates in our AI-assisted software.

If you're tech-savvy and like building better ways to work, you'll fit right in. This role is based at our Kirkland branch with some hybrid flexibility. It is not fully remote. We want people who learn fast, take ownership, and want to grow with a team that's building something bigger.
