Job Description

Civil Estimator – Heavy Civil Construction

I’m working with an established heavy civil contractor with 30+ years in the industry that is looking to add an experienced Civil Estimator to its team.

This is a great opportunity for an estimator who enjoys diverse civil projects rather than estimating the same type of work every day. The company performs much of its work in-house, giving the estimating and operations teams greater control from bid through completion.

Project Experience We’re Looking For

  • Site development, excavation, mass grading and earthwork

  • Underground utilities, water/sewer and utility rehabilitation

  • Highway and roadway construction

  • Bridge construction and repair

  • Concrete construction

  • Demolition and site remediation

  • Environmental and brownfield redevelopment

  • Trucking, engineered fill and related heavy civil scopes

What You’ll Do

You’ll review plans and specifications, perform quantity takeoffs, develop labor/equipment/material costs, solicit subcontractor and supplier pricing, and prepare competitive estimates and proposals.

Just as importantly, you’ll work closely with project managers, field operations, engineers, municipalities, developers and company leadership to make sure estimates reflect how projects will actually be built.

What Makes This Opportunity Different

This is a organization with the resources and project diversity of a much larger contractor. They have professional civil and structural engineering expertise in-house and perform a significant portion of their construction work themselves.

The company has built its reputation around safety, quality, completing projects on schedule and staying within budget. They’re looking for someone who wants to become part of the team—not simply turn out bids.
