The Opportunity

Our client is seeking a dedicated Commercial Concrete Foundation Estimator to take ownership of our foundation budgeting process. This is a high-impact, independent role focused on delivering the precision and technical accuracy required for complex commercial projects.

• Blueprint Analysis: Interpret complex structural and architectural drawings to identify potential design conflicts or cost-saving opportunities (value engineering).

• Efficiency Management: Maintain and update complex spreadsheets to ensure budget accuracy and operational efficiency as project scopes evolve.

Qualifications & Skills

• Specialized Experience: Proven track record estimating commercial foundations. You must understand the specific requirements of commercial-grade concrete work.

• Excel Mastery: Exceptional expertise in Microsoft Excel is mandatory. You should be comfortable navigating and building complex formulas and data-heavy spreadsheets.

• Technical Proficiency: Prior experience with takeoff software such as Bluebeam or PlanSwift is highly preferred.

• Analytical Mindset: A persistent self-starter who digs into the details to ensure no cost is overlooked.

Independent Learner: Ability to quickly master internal processes and tools with minimal formal training. You should be someone who enjoys troubleshooting and finding answers independently.
