This is an entry-level career in the major construction and HVAC industry. Responsibilities will include performing blueprint takeoffs, estimating, writing proposals, bid updates, pre-bid jobwalks, and coordinating with suppliers and subcontractors.
This position is part of the Business Development (BD) team. The BD team manages all aspects of the sales process including client acquisition, marketing, account management, estimating, and design.
You've GOT to be a people person to work within the Business Development group and to eventually progress further into estimating (if you want to). There will be conflict (not always but it happens), constant communication (on the PHONE not just email), and a need to be both detail-oriented, as well as big picture thinking. You will interact directly with all types of clients, owners, general contractors, subcontractors, and our own internal team so if you don't like talking, this isn't the job for you. You've got to be on top of your game, good with stress, excellent with math, and not easily offended.
The best people for this job don't take themselves too seriously, are honest and straight-forward communicators, and enjoy the pressure of the construction industry. Having a great sense of humor helps too.
