The Role
This is a hybrid role: you will estimate and bid new work, then carry the jobs you win through to closeout. If you want to see a project from the first takeoff to the final pay application, this is the position.
What You'll Do
Estimating
- Review bid documents, plans, specs, and addenda; attend pre-bid meetings and site visits
- Perform quantity takeoffs for earthwork, drainage, utilities, and paving
- Build estimates in Bid2Win, including labor, equipment, materials, and production rates
- Solicit and compare subcontractor and supplier quotes
- Prepare and submit bids for state and private work, and take part in bid reviews
- Hand off awarded jobs: set up budgets, buy out subcontracts, and issue purchase orders
Project Management
- Manage several active projects from award through closeout, covering schedule, budget, and scope
- Track job costs and forecasts in Vista
- Prepare submittals, RFIs, change orders, and monthly pay applications
- Coordinate crews, equipment, and materials with superintendents and foremen
- Manage subcontractors and suppliers, including union labor requirements
- Serve as the main contact for owners, engineers, and inspectors, and run progress meetings
- Travel to in-state job sites as needed (occasional overnight stays, not often)
What You Bring
- 5+ years of experience in estimating AND project management
- MUST HAVE civil / heavy highway construction
- Degree or credentials preferred, but proven "homegrown" experience is equally welcome
- Experience with Bid2Win and Vista, or similar estimating and project cost software is a plus
Compensation & Benefits
- 95,000-100,000 per year
- 401(k) with 4% company match
- Paid time off
- Paid sick time
- Paid holidays
- Car allowance
