What are the responsibilities and job description for the Pricing Administrator position at Capital Carpet & Flooring Spec. Inc.?
Role Overview
We are a growing commercial flooring contractor seeking a highly organized and proactive Pricing Administrator to join our pre-construction team. In this entry-level role, you will be the bridge between our company and our material suppliers. Your primary mission is to ensure our estimators have accurate, up-to-date pricing for every project we bid.
This is a perfect role for someone who enjoys "the hunt" for information, likes staying organized, and wants to learn the inner workings of the commercial construction industry.
Key Responsibilities
- Pricing Procurement: Reach out to manufacturers (Mohawk, Shaw, Interface, etc.) and local distributors to request project-specific pricing.
- Pricing Tracking: Maintain a digital log of all pending and received pricing to ensure no deadline is missed.
- Document Management: Download project floor plans and specifications from bid invites to identify exactly which products need pricing.
- Vendor Relations: Build and maintain professional relationships with our supplier reps to ensure we receive timely responses.
- Database Entry: Update our internal systems with current material costs and lead times.
- Cross-Functional Support: Assist the estimating / project management team in preparing final bid folders and submittal packages.
What We’re Looking For
- The "Follow-Up" Pro: You aren't afraid to pick up the phone or send a second email to get the info you need.
- Analytical Mindset: You can quickly compare two different quotes and spot the missing line items (e.g., "Does this include the adhesive?").
- Tech Savvy: Proficient in Microsoft Excel and Outlook. Experience with construction software is a plus but not required (we will train you!).
- Communication Skills: Professional phone etiquette and clear email writing are essential.
- Education: High School Diploma required; Associate's or Bachelor's degree preferred but not mandatory.
Pay: From $23.00 per hour
