Build Your Legacy. Shape the Future.

At LAURIN, we don’t just build structures — we build careers and communities. Since 1985, we’ve earned a reputation for excellence in construction and project management by delivering projects that matter and supporting the people who make them happen.

We’re seeking a Junior Estimator to join our Ottawa team. This is an excellent opportunity for an early-career construction professional who is analytical, detail-oriented, and eager to build strong estimating expertise while contributing to competitive bids and successful projects.

Why Join LAURIN?

At LAURIN, we believe a great career is built on more than just a paycheck — it’s built on stability, support, and opportunity. Our total rewards package is designed to recognize your contributions and help you thrive both professionally and personally.

Competitive compensation that reflects your skills, experience, and impact.
Annual discretionary profit-sharing program.
Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage for you and your family.
Prescription drug coverage and access to telemedicine services.
Life, AD&D, and disability insurance for financial peace of mind.
Mental health and wellness support through our Employee Assistance Program.
Paid vacation, sick days, and personal days to recharge and stay balanced.
Paid volunteer days to support causes that matter to you and our communities.
Retirement savings plan with employer matching.
Inclusive, safety-first culture where every person is respected.
Ongoing opportunities to grow, including training, mentorship, and career advancement.

Your Impact at LAURIN

As a Junior Estimator, you will support the preparation of accurate, competitive estimates for ICI construction projects across the Ottawa region. Working alongside experienced preconstruction and operations professionals, you’ll develop your technical knowledge, strengthen trade relationships, and help turn project opportunities into successful pursuits.

Key Responsibilities

Develop detailed, accurate estimates in line with company standards, including quantity takeoffs, self-perform work, and selected subcontractor scopes.
Review drawings, specifications, addenda, and other project documents to understand scope, technical requirements, and subcontractor needs.
Identify project risks, opportunities, and scope gaps, and contribute ideas that improve competitiveness and value.
Assist with preliminary construction schedules using input from subcontractors and internal teams to accurately price time-related activities.
Support preconstruction services, including cost plans, preliminary budgets, and value-engineering proposals.
Solicit and analyze pricing from subcontractors and suppliers to help ensure complete coverage across all scope areas.
Build productive relationships with trade partners, consultants, and clients while representing LAURIN professionally in the Ottawa market.
Maintain current databases of labour rates, material pricing, subcontractor information, and historical project costs.
Assist in calculating general expenses and preparing recommendations related to fees and margins.
Prepare clear summaries of key issues and participate actively in estimate review meetings.
Participate in bid closings, helping ensure submissions are accurate, complete, timely, and competitive.
Support post-tender activities, including clarifications, supplemental submissions, and negotiations.
Help identify potential project leads through market awareness and relationships with clients, consultants, and subcontractors.
Continue developing a strong understanding of the Ottawa construction market, including local trade capacity, pricing, and emerging opportunities.

Qualifications

One to three years of estimating, project coordination, or related construction experience; co-op and internship experience will be considered.
Working knowledge of construction drawings, specifications, quantity takeoffs, and basic estimating principles.
Strong numerical, analytical, organizational, and problem-solving skills.
Exceptional attention to detail, with the ability to produce accurate work within firm deadlines.
Clear written and verbal communication skills and the confidence to engage with subcontractors, suppliers, and internal teams.
Proficiency with Microsoft Office, particularly Excel; experience with estimating, takeoff, scheduling, or construction-management software is an asset.
Ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced, deadline-driven environment.
Collaborative mindset, sound judgment, and a genuine interest in building a long-term career in construction estimating.

Education & Professional Credentials

Degree or diploma in Construction Engineering Technology, Civil Engineering, Construction Management, or a related field, or an equivalent combination of education and relevant experience.
Membership with the Canadian Institute of Quantity Surveyors, or progress toward an estimating-related designation, is considered an asset.

Eligibility & Security Requirements

At LAURIN, many of our projects require specific employment and security conditions. To be considered, candidates must:

Be legally authorized to work in Canada. Please note that LAURIN does not provide or assume sponsorship for work permits or visas.
Be eligible to obtain and maintain Government of Canada Reliability Status security clearance (Secret clearance is considered an asset).
Successful candidates will be required to provide proof of authorization to work in Canada (e.g., valid work permit or Social Insurance Number). All offers of employment are conditional upon obtaining the required security clearance.

Estimated Compensation

The expected salary range for this role is $60,000 — $80,000, based on experience and qualifications. Final compensation will be confirmed in your personalized offer.

Life at LAURIN

At LAURIN, you’ll be part of something bigger than a job — you’ll be part of a team recognized for its integrity, teamwork, and long-term careers. We invest in people at every stage, from co-ops and entry roles to leadership development programs that help you pursue your career goals.

We are an inclusive employer, and we welcome applicants from all backgrounds. If you require accommodation during the application process, please contact [email protected] and include the position and location you’re applying for.

Applicants must be legally authorized to work in Canada. This role is not eligible for sponsorship, and we are unable to sponsor or take over sponsorship of an employment visa or work permit.

This posting is for a new position within our organization. This recruitment process does not involve the use of artificial intelligence (AI) to screen, assess, or select applicants. All hiring decisions are made by qualified reviewers.

Let’s Build Something Great Together.
