Senior Estimator​/Project Coordinator; heavy Civil

Position: Senior Estimator/Project Coordinator (heavy Civil)
Senior Estimator / Project Coordinator
Build Landmark Infrastructure Projects Across Ontario Our client is a respected, COR-certified concrete forming contractor delivering critical heavy civil and low-rise concrete structures across Ontario. From bridges and culverts to retaining walls, chambers, and complex structural concrete work, they have built a reputation for quality execution, safety, and reliability in the field. As the company continues to grow, they are seeking an experienced Senior Estimator / Project Coordinator to become a key leader within the organization — someone who brings deep heavy civil expertise, strong operational instincts, and the confidence to take ownership of projects from tender to closeout.

This is an opportunity for a high-performing construction professional to step into a role where your knowledge, judgment, and leadership will directly influence the company’s success.
The Opportunity This is not a “plug-and-play” estimating role. We are looking for a seasoned professional who understands heavy civil concrete forming inside and out — someone who can confidently price complex work, identify risk before it becomes costly, and support projects through execution. You’ll play a central role in both pre-construction and operations, working closely with management, field teams, owners, and general contractors to ensure projects are delivered successfully and profitably.

If you thrive in fast-paced environments, enjoy solving complex construction challenges, and want to have a meaningful impact within a growing company, this role was built for you.
