What are the responsibilities and job description for the Senior Estimator/Project Manager position at AZ Custom Designs?
AZ Custom Designs is looking for a highly organized, detail-oriented Senior Estimator / Project Manager to join our growing team.
We specialize in premium window coverings for luxury custom homes throughout the greater Phoenix area. Every home we work in is unique, and every project requires thoughtful planning before installation begins.
We're looking for someone who genuinely enjoys studying blueprints, catching details others might miss, and solving problems before they ever reach the job site.
If you're the type of person who looks at a set of plans and immediately starts thinking three steps ahead, we'd love to meet you.
What You'll Do
- Review architectural plans, reflected ceiling plans, and construction documents.
- Perform detailed takeoffs and prepare accurate project estimates.
- Identify framing conflicts, truss locations, recessed pocket requirements, and other installation limitations before construction.
- Mark and organize every window covering location directly on project plans.
- Anticipate and resolve potential installation challenges during the estimating phase to help ensure projects are completed correctly the first time.
- Coordinate projects with builders, designers, homeowners, and our installation team.
- Assist with ordering, scheduling, and overall project coordination.
- Help ensure every project is organized and installation-ready before materials arrive.
- Conduct job site visits with builders and homeowners to review project conditions and prepare for successful installations.
- Build lasting relationships through professionalism, communication, and attention to detail.
What We're Looking For
- Experience reading residential construction plans.
- Strong construction knowledge and problem-solving skills.
- Exceptional attention to detail.
- Excellent organizational and communication skills.
- Ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously.
- Experience with custom homes is preferred.
- Experience in window coverings, cabinetry, millwork, electrical, low-voltage, or other finish trades is a plus—but we're willing to train the right person.
- Experience with Procore, builder trend, dropbox, and cad is a plus.
Why AZ Custom Designs?
We aren't the biggest company in Arizona, but we strive to be the best.
Our reputation has been built on exceptional craftsmanship, attention to detail, and lasting relationships with builders, designers, and homeowners. We believe quality comes from planning ahead, communicating well, and taking pride in doing things right the first time.
This is not just a desk job where you'll spend every day staring at spreadsheets. You'll be involved from blueprint review through project completion, working alongside Arizona's top builders, designers, homeowners, and our installation team to ensure every project is executed at the highest level.
If you enjoy working on luxury custom homes, appreciate a team that values quality over shortcuts, and want to play a key role in delivering exceptional projects, we'd love to hear from you.
