At The Third Estimate, people are the engine behind our growth—and we’re looking for a Senior Human Resources Generalist who knows how to fuel it.

This is a momentum-driving role. We’re searching for a high-energy, people-first leader who treats recruiting like marketing, understands the realities of a fast-paced construction environment, and knows how to build culture, engagement, and accountability from the inside out.
