Job Details
What you’ll do:
Own the fundamentals of takeoff on ductwork and accessories: read plans/specs, quantify materials & labor, and build clean estimate worksheets.
Contribute to live bids with senior estimator review; assist in preparing scopes, alternates, and inclusions/exclusions.
Partner with fabrication, PM, and field to validate production hours and logistics so estimates reflect how work really gets built.
Use modern tools (Bluebeam Excel; exposure to leading sheet‑metal estimating platforms — we’ll train.
What you’ll learn here
Fabrication‑first estimating: how shop standards, production rates, and installation logistics drive cost.
How big projects move: RFIs, VE options, and bid‑day strategy with GCs/owners.
Data hygiene & speed: templates and assemblies that make your numbers trusted by operations.
Growth path
Advance from Estimator I → Estimator II → Senior Estimator, with options to specialize (healthcare/DSA/campus), mentor interns, or pivot into precon or PM.
You’ll thrive if you have
0–2 years of sheet metal, HVAC, mechanical or construction experience (internships, shop/field time, design/drafting, or estimating all count) or a related degree/certificate (CM, ME/MEP, drafting, or welding/fab).
Curiosity about how things are made; you reverse‑engineer drawings and like tightening assumptions.
Beginner proficiency with Bluebeam and Excel; exposure to any MEP/sheet‑metal estimating tool is a plus.
Clear, concise communication—and you’re not afraid to ask “why.”
