Full job description

Senior Construction Estimator / Project coordinator

Company: 640 Earthworks
Location: Elk Point, Alberta
Employment Type: Full-time
Industry: Heavy Civil, Municipal Infrastructure, Water and Wastewater Construction

About 640 Earthworks

640 Earthworks is an Alberta-based civil construction general contractor specializing in municipal water and sewer infrastructure, lift stations, pump stations, water treatment facilities, underground utilities and related mechanical and process work.

We are entering the next stage of our growth and are looking for an experienced estimator who can help us build and maintain a strong, consistent backlog of work.

Our long-term operating structure will include two closely connected construction divisions:

A heavy civil water and sewer division led by our Civil Superintendent.
A mechanical and infrastructure division led by our Mechanical Foreman.

These divisions will work together on projects such as lift stations and pump stations. The civil division will complete excavation, underground piping, site servicing, concrete preparation and related earthworks before transitioning the project to the mechanical division for process piping, equipment installation and commissioning support.

We are looking for someone who understands how these scopes fit together and can identify, assess and estimate projects that keep both divisions productive.

Position Summary

The Senior Construction Estimator / Preconstruction Manager will be responsible for identifying suitable project opportunities, preparing complete and competitive estimates, coordinating subcontractor and supplier pricing and helping develop a sustainable project backlog.

The successful candidate must have practical estimating experience in heavy civil water and sewer construction, along with experience estimating lift stations, pump stations, treatment facilities or similar municipal infrastructure.

This is not strictly a quantity takeoff position. The estimator will be expected to understand construction methods, project risks, scheduling, crew production, tender strategy and the operational needs of the company.

Primary Responsibilities

Search for and evaluate public and private tender opportunities throughout Alberta and Saskatchewan
Maintain an active tender calendar and project opportunity pipeline
Review tender documents, drawings, specifications, geotechnical reports and addenda
Complete detailed quantity takeoffs and cost estimates
Develop labour, equipment, material and subcontractor pricing
Estimate heavy civil water and sewer projects, including:
Water distribution systems
Sanitary sewer systems
Storm sewer systems
Forcemains
Deep utility excavation
Manholes, valves and chambers
Road reconstruction and site restoration
Subdivisions and municipal servicing
Estimate lift station, pump station and treatment facility projects, including:
Excavation and structural installation
Underground process piping
Mechanical equipment
Process piping and valves
Buildings and concrete
Electrical and instrumentation subcontractors
Bypass pumping
Commissioning and startup support
Develop project execution plans and preliminary schedules
Identify tender risks, exclusions, clarifications and value-engineering opportunities
Obtain and evaluate subcontractor and supplier quotations
Prepare tender summaries and review estimates with ownership and operations
Assist with tender submissions, bonding requirements and qualification packages
Participate in site meetings and pre-bid meetings when required
Complete estimate handovers to project management and field supervision
Maintain historical pricing, production rates and completed-project cost information
Assist with change-order pricing and major project revisions
Build relationships with municipalities, consultants, subcontractors and suppliers
Help establish bidding targets that maintain a healthy backlog without pursuing unsuitable or excessively risky projects

Required Experience

Minimum five years of construction estimating experience
Demonstrated experience estimating heavy civil water and sewer projects
Experience with lift stations, pump stations, water treatment plants, wastewater facilities or comparable infrastructure
Strong understanding of excavation, trenching, shoring, dewatering, piping, concrete and site restoration
Ability to interpret civil, structural, mechanical, electrical and process drawings
Experience obtaining and evaluating subcontractor and supplier quotations
Strong understanding of labour and equipment productivity
Experience preparing estimates for municipal or publicly tendered projects
Proficiency with construction estimating software and Microsoft Excel
Strong organizational and communication skills
Valid driver’s licence

Preferred Qualifications

Experience using B2W Estimate
Experience with design-bid-build municipal projects
Familiarity with Alberta and Saskatchewan tendering requirements
Experience with bonding, bid security and contractor qualification submissions
Field experience in underground utility or water and wastewater construction
Engineering technology, construction management or civil engineering education
Experience estimating projects ranging from approximately $500,000 to $15 million

What Success Looks Like

During the first several months, the successful candidate will:

Develop a clear pipeline of upcoming tender opportunities
Help secure suitable work extending beyond the current construction season
Establish a consistent estimating and bid-review process
Learn 640 Earthworks’ equipment, crews, subcontractors and construction methods
Improve the accuracy and consistency of estimate handovers
Begin developing a reliable backlog for the heavy civil water and sewer division

Long-term success will include:

Maintaining a steady flow of suitable work for the civil and mechanical divisions
Helping create a stable and highly productive heavy civil water and sewer team
Selecting projects that fit the company’s strengths, rather than bidding every project available
Improving estimating accuracy through historical cost and production tracking
Supporting sustainable and profitable company growth

What We Offer

A senior role with direct access to company ownership and field leadership
The opportunity to help build and shape two growing construction divisions
A practical work environment where estimating decisions are connected directly to field execution
Competitive compensation based on experience
Company benefits
Opportunities for performance-based incentives
Long-term career growth within an established Alberta contractor

How to Apply

Please submit a résumé outlining your experience estimating heavy civil water and sewer infrastructure, lift stations, pump stations and related municipal construction.

Applicants should include examples of the types and approximate values of projects they have estimated, along with the estimating software they have used.

Pay: $77,894.60-$159,256.48 per year
