Estimator

Position Summary

If you can read a set of plans like it’s your morning paper, and your happy place is somewhere between a spreadsheet and a pre-bid, we might already like you.

At EDiS, we’ve got an open estimating job for an Estimator who doesn’t just crunch numbers, but builds the “foundation” for everything that comes next. You’ll play a key role in helping us budget work that builds what matters – from schools and hospitals, to community centers and commercial hubs.

This is a role for someone who loves the challenge of assembling a rock-solid estimate, knows how to spot a gap in a scope package, and understands that our relationships with architects and subcontractors are just as important as our relationships with clients.

Still with us? Let’s talk.

Your priorities will be:

1. Estimate with Confidence: Lead estimating efforts on individual projects – takeoffs, subcontractor outreach, pricing, and everything else that goes into a premier estimate. No numbers scratched onto a napkin over here!
2. Read Between the Lines (and Specs): Analyze drawings, specs, and scopes with detective-like precision – and flag what’s missing.
3. Pre-Bid Partner: Site visits, scopes, RFIs, and coordination with subcontractors and suppliers for max clarity and coverage is just how you operate.
4. Trade Ally: Build and maintain authentic relationships with trade contractors and suppliers – so that they’ll always pick up when you call.

What’s your first step?

Typically, our hiring process follows the order below. We won’t move you on to the next round unless we’re serious about it, and we’ll let you know where you stand.

1. First, we’ll review your resume. If you haven’t included references, you may be asked for them.
2. Next, you’ll be invited to schedule a 30-minute screening call with a member of our team.
