  • Support the development of bid packages.
  • Help with value engineering: identify cost savings without sacrificing quality.
  • Maintain an up-to-date cost database.
  • Track historical costs and assist in analyzing discrepancies.
  • Coordinate with other teams (project management, procurement, field) to gather needed input for estimates.
  • Learn and use estimating software and tools.
  • Presentation support: prepare estimate summaries and assist in bid proposals.

Qualifications & Skills

  • Bachelor’s degree in Construction Management, Civil Engineering, Architecture, or related field.
  • Strong math, analytical, and problem solving skills.
  • Good communication skills, both written and verbal.
  • Attention to detail and ability to manage multiple tasks.

  • Eagerness to learn; takes direction well and proactively seeks feedback.
