Estimator - Water

$85k - $125k

RK Mechanical, Inc.

Description

Estimator - Water

Denver, CO
$85,000-$125,000/year + Annual Incentive Bonus Eligibility

 

Build Winning Projects Before They Break Ground

At RK, our Estimators play a critical role in shaping project success from day one. As an Estimator, you'll combine technical expertise, strategic thinking, and collaboration to develop competitive, accurate estimates that help secure new work and set projects up for successful execution. Working closely with Sales, Preconstruction, Operations, and field teams, you'll analyze scope, identify value engineering opportunities, and influence project strategy throughout the pursuit process.

And you won't build alone. RK's in-house fabrication, manufacturing, construction, and building services capabilities give our teams resources that many contractors simply don't have.

This is an opportunity to leave a legacy, not just complete another project.

What You'll Lead

  • Review project documents, including proposed plans, specifications, addenda, and related documents
  • Identify scope of work, project requirements, constraints, and potential risks
  • Identify scope gaps, clarifications, exclusions, and inconsistencies in proposal documents
  • Perform material, labor, and equipment takeoffs with accuracy and consistency
  • Obtain quotes and coordinate/quality scope with vendors and subcontractors
  • Assist with preparing bid packages, proposals, and supporting documentation
  • Validate compliance with codes, regulations, and client requirements.
  • Evaluate all estimate components for accuracy and completeness before submission
  • Develop new estimating methodologies, pricing strategies, and benchmarking tools to improve accuracy and competitiveness

 

What You Bring

  • 2+ years of relevant estimating experience on industrial or commercial mechanical projects
  • Knowledge of pipes, valves, and fittings
  • Ability to provide direction for complex or high-value estimates
  • Comfortable representing the estimating function in high-level internal and external discussions
  • College/University graduate or equivalent combination of skills and experience generally expected for specified technical roles

 

Why Build Your Career at RK

Build bigger. Lead sophisticated, high-profile projects with the resources and capabilities to execute them well.

Have a voice. Influence project strategy, field operations, and how RK continues to improve the way we build.

Build with an integrated team. Tap into seven specialized business units and extensive in-house fabrication, manufacturing, and prefabrication capabilities.

Develop who's next. Build future field leaders while continuing your own development through mentorship, hands-on learning, and RK University.

Build for the long term. Join a second-generation, family-owned company that combines the stability of an established builder with the growth and opportunity of an industry leader.

Your Benefits

  • Paid Time Off plus 6 paid holidays
  • Health Insurance with a $100 wellness incentive
  • 401(K) with company match
  • Employee Discount Program through PerkSpot

If you're ready to lead larger projects, build stronger teams, and put your name behind work that matters, we'd like to talk.

Build projects that matter. Build leaders who last. Build your future at RK.
