Full job description

We’re seeking a Intermediate/ Senior Estimator to join our team and play a key role in securing and delivering successful projects. If you excel in a fast‑paced environment, bring strong analytical skills, and have a proven ability to translate complex plans and quantities into accurate, competitive estimates—we want to connect with you!

As a Intermediate/Senior Estimator specializing in Underground Utilities and Civil Earthworks, you will:

Lead the full estimating process for complex civil infrastructure projects, including deep utilities, water/sewer systems, large-scale earthworks, grading, roadworks, and site servicing.
Oversee the preparation of highly detailed, accurate, and strategic estimates, ensuring completeness, risk awareness, and alignment with project execution strategies.
Manage multiple large-scale tenders simultaneously.
Evaluate, level, and negotiate subcontractor and supplier proposals, ensuring coverage of scope gaps, clarifications, and risk items.
Provide strategic insight during project handoff, assisting Project Managers with buyout processes, tender binders, and pricing strategies.
Develop and maintain sophisticated cost models based on historical performance, production rates, geotechnical considerations, equipment utilization, and field feedback.
·Build and maintain strong industry relationships with owners, consultants, inspectors, subcontractors, and suppliers to support upcoming opportunities and market intelligence.
Identify and communicate risk, including design gaps, schedule constraints, soil or groundwater challenges, environmental requirements, and constructability concerns.
Maintain and refine comprehensive databases for labor, equipment, materials, trucking, and project benchmarks, ensuring accuracy and continuous improvement across the estimating department.
Lead estimate revisions as new drawings, addenda, or design developments are issued, providing impact assessments and strategic recommendations.
Proactively identify value engineering options, alternative construction methods, sequencing strategies, and cost-saving opportunities without compromising design intent.
Collaborate closely with operations teams to align bids with realistic production expectations, equipment planning, manpower loading, and site logistics.
Support the organization by providing market insights, competitive intelligence, and feedback on upcoming opportunities, procurement strategies, and tender selection.

You’re ideally suited for this position if:

You have a civil engineering, construction management, or related technical degree/diploma, with 5+ years of estimating experience specifically in underground utilities, earthworks, and civil infrastructure.
You bring strong leadership skills, with the ability to mentor junior estimators and support a collaborative, high-performing team.
You are highly proficient with estimating software, digital measurement tools, and advanced takeoff methodologies.
You possess deep knowledge of civil construction methodologies, trenching, shoring, dewatering, pipe materials, soil classifications, equipment capabilities, and municipal/infrastructure standards.
You understand a range of contract formats, including unit price, lump sum, design-build, and CM contracts, and can interpret contractual risk with confidence.
You think strategically, work well under pressure, and maintain accuracy and organization in fast-paced, deadline-driven environments.
You bring a seasoned understanding of project management principles, scheduling, risk analysis, constructability, and real-world production constraints.
You have the ability to influence tender strategy, collaborate with senior leadership, and help shape the company’s competitive edge in the marketplace.

Why Join Us:

Competitive wages based on experience
Comprehensive benefits package
Supportive and safety-first team culture
Work on exciting infrastructure and development projects
