Full job description

About the Role

As a Junior Estimator at Akman Construction, you will be a valued contributor to our Estimating team, supporting the preparation of accurate and competitive bids across civil infrastructure projects — including earthworks, roadworks, bulk excavation, grading, and sewer/watermain systems.

This is a close-knit estimating team where you will work directly alongside senior leadership on every bid. It is well-suited for someone with a foundational understanding of estimating who is looking to deepen their expertise in civil infrastructure, take on real ownership of bid work, and build a long-term career in the industry.

Key Responsibilities

Take ownership of assigned estimates and assist on larger bids by reviewing all bid documents and validating project scope.
Accurately perform quantity take-offs for labor, equipment, and materials.
Assist with preparing tender forms, generating RFIs, and coordinating proposal requirements.
Analyze project documents to identify risks, assess site conditions, and recognize potential scheduling and market impacts.
Contribute to identifying cost-saving opportunities and strategic advantages within each estimate.
Support GPS model preparation and cut/fill analysis using Topcon Magnet software.
Solicit competitive pricing from subtrade partners and suppliers and manage responses.
Collaborate on bid-day activities, ensuring accuracy and timely submission.
Organize, document, and archive bid information for seamless transfer to project teams.
Support cost analysis and budget reviews, providing insights to help refine estimates.
Generate bid status reports and other key performance metrics to help improve estimating practices.

Qualifications

Degree or diploma in Civil Engineering, Construction Management, Construction Engineering Technology, or a closely related field.
1–3 years of experience in construction estimating, or hands-on field experience in civil construction (earthworks, roadworks, sewer/watermain); candidates transitioning from field roles into estimating are encouraged to apply.
Working knowledge of quantity takeoff, procurement, pricing, and bid-closing principles.
Ability to read and interpret construction drawings, specifications, and project documents.
Proficiency with Microsoft Office Suite (Excel, Word, Project); familiarity with civil modeling or surveying software (e.g. Topcon Magnet, Trimble, Civil 3D) is considered an asset.
Strong attention to detail, with a commitment to accuracy and completeness in all estimates.
Excellent communication skills with the ability to build and maintain strong relationships with sub-trade partners, suppliers, and internal teams.
Strong organizational skills with the ability to prioritize, manage multiple tasks, and meet deadlines in a fast-paced environment.
Valid driver's license and willingness to perform occasional site visits for physical project scoping.
Eagerness to learn and adopt new technologies and tools.

Pay: $51,910.13-$70,785.40 per year

Casual dress
