  • Review previous projects to compare scope, quantities, and estimating requirements.
  • Use estimating software, including Measure Square (training provided).
  • Manage multiple estimating projects while maintaining accuracy and meeting deadlines.
What We're Looking For
  • Bachelor's degree or 4+ years of relevant experience.
  • Ability to read and interpret blueprints, construction drawings, and specifications.
  • Strong math, measurement, analytical, and technical skills.
  • Excellent computer proficiency, including Microsoft Office.
  • Strong attention to detail and organizational skills.
  • Ability to work independently, manage priorities, and meet deadlines.
  • Self-motivated, dependable, and comfortable working in a fast-paced environment.
  • Interest in developing specialized estimating expertise and building a long-term career.
Preferred Qualifications
  • Construction, estimating, engineering, architecture, or related technical experience.
  • Experience performing material takeoffs or preparing bid packages.
  • Familiarity with commercial flooring materials or installation methods.
  • Experience with Measure Square or similar estimating software (not required).
Compensation & Benefits
  • Target salary of $60,000, flexible based on experience.
  • Overtime pay for hours worked over 40 per week.
  • Performance bonus opportunities.
  • Career advancement and professional development.
  • Company events, team luncheons, and outings.
  • Stable, established organization with long-term growth opportunities.
Why Consider This Opportunity?

This company offers a collaborative team environment, strong employee retention, and opportunities for advancement. They are looking for someone who takes pride in accurate, detailed work and wants to grow with the organization.
