Construction Estimator

The Position

This full‑time, in‑office construction estimator role is responsible for the initial review of construction estimates in Xactimate and Symbility, providing feedback and recommendations with detailed justification through line‑item notes that align with our goals.

The position will collaborate with the V.P. of construction to develop standard operating procedures and create process maps to streamline estimating. It is an in‑office role, but there will be work‑from‑home opportunities.
