  • Develop conceptual proposals to support business development
  • Negotiate and issue subcontracts

What You’ll Bring:

  • Proficiency with Microsoft Office and experience with pre-construction and estimating software
  • Strong understanding of estimating methods, cost control, and conceptual estimating
  • Ability to put together accurate proposals with minimum supervision
  • Clear communication skills — both written and verbal — to explain inclusions, exclusions, and clarifications with owners and subcontractors
  • Ability to manage multiple tasks while maintaining focus on key priorities

Experience:
