Work closely with customers, project managers, field teams, and senior leadership.
Develop and improve estimating processes, tools, databases, and workflows.
Evaluate and implement estimating software, technology, and AI tools to improve accuracy and efficiency.
Track projects through completion and compare estimated costs against actual project performance.
Use historical project data to improve future estimates and project outcomes.
Help establish estimating best practices and improve team performance.
Provide guidance and mentorship to less-experienced team members.
Collaborate closely with project management and field operations to ensure alignment from estimate through completion.
