Estimator - Construction

I’m working with a confidential commercial general contractor in Seattle that is looking to add an Estimator to its preconstruction team.

This is an opportunity to join an established, employee-owned builder with a strong local presence and a steady pipeline of commercial work.

The right person will have experience estimating commercial construction projects and be comfortable supporting the preconstruction process from early budgeting through final bid.

• Preparing detailed estimates and conceptual budgets
• Performing quantity takeoffs and reviewing project plans/specifications
• Soliciting and evaluating subcontractor pricing
• Supporting bid packages, scopes, and leveling sheets
• Working with project teams, owners, architects, and trade partners
• Participating in value engineering and constructability discussions
• Helping transition awarded work from preconstruction to operations

• Experience with commercial office, healthcare, life science, education, TI, mixed-use, or technical construction projects
• Ability to read plans, specs, RFIs, and addenda
• Strong subcontractor relationship and bid coverage skills
• Proficiency with tools such as Bluebeam, Building Connected, Procore, Excel, Sage, Win Est, DESTINI, or similar platforms
• Strong communication, organization, and follow-through
• Vehicle allowance / transportation support depending on role structure
• Strong healthcare options
• 401(k) match
• Paid time off
• Paid parental leave

Long-term growth opportunity with an established commercial builder

This is a strong fit for an Estimator who wants to be part of a stable Seattle-based commercial contractor with an ownership-minded culture and a real long-term upside through an ESOP structure.
