  • Attend pre-bid meetings and site visits as needed
  • Maintain organized records of estimates and historical cost data

  • Strong ability to read and interpret construction drawings and specifications
  • Advanced proficiency in Microsoft Excel
  • Strong analytical, organizational, and communication skills
  • Ability to thrive in a fast-paced, deadline-driven environment

Preferred:

  • Background in landscaping, ecological restoration, or site development
  • Experience with light commercial or site-related construction
  • Experience working for a General Contractor (GC)
  • Bachelor’s degree in construction management, estimating, or related field (or equivalent experience)

Team & Work Environment

  • Collaborative team of 5, including sales and operations partners
  • High-growth environment with strong project pipeline
  • Opportunity to work cross-functionally with multiple stakeholders

Work Schedule & Flexibility

  • First 60 days: Onsite for onboarding, training, and team integration
  • After 60 days: Flexible hybrid model (mix of office, field, and remote work based on project needs)
