Commercial Estimator- Sr Trade Partner Relationship Manager
About the role
At Fiorilli Construction, we're looking for a commercial construction professional who is equal parts estimator, relationship builder, and problem-solver. This is not a traditional purchasing-agent job. The heart of the role is finding and developing talented smaller subcontractors - the 3-5 person carpentry, electrical, plumbing, interiors, and specialty crews that do great work but may not have the capital or administrative depth to carry large material purchases. When the economics make sense, Fiorilli buys the materials directly, the trade partner focuses on installing the work, and together we create better bid coverage, stronger relationships, and better COGS. Fiorilli's #1 differentiator is its culture, Core Focus, and Core Values. We build through a customer-centric approach, a "Building Together" culture, and a Fio-Family environment where people are expected to contribute, grow, communicate directly, and Own It. We also believe the best construction results come from long-term relationships with clients and trade partners - not just one-time transactions.
Responsibilities
- Vendor Relationship Management - Find, recruit, and nurture quality small subcontractors. Build Sub BSAR, understand their capacity and business needs, keep them engaged in Fiorilli opportunities, and turn good craftsmen into long-term trade partners.
- Small-Trade Procurement - When a qualified small subcontractor cannot reasonably carry the material cost, structure Fiorilli direct-buy material plus labor-only/reduced-scope arrangements. Source the material, manage the PO and supplier relationship,
