Electrical Estimator

About the role

This role isn't about cranking out takeoffs or copying old numbers. It's about owning the pursuit — building accurate, strategic, and competitive estimates that position the team to win the right work, not just any work.

Responsibilities

• Preparing detailed electrical estimates for design/build, design-assist, and hard-bid projects
• Performing accurate quantity takeoffs, labor assessments, and material pricing
• Reviewing drawings, specifications, and addenda to identify scope, gaps, and opportunities
• Partnering with project managers, field leadership, and preconstruction teams to validate approach and build strategy
• Soliciting and leveling subcontractor and vendor quotes
• Developing budgets, alternates, value-engineering options, and bid clarifications
• Supporting handoff to operations to ensure a clean transition from estimate to execution

Requirements

A strong understanding of electrical systems — power, lighting, controls, low-voltage, and life-safety

The ability to read and interpret construction documents with precision

A strategic mindset — you don’t just price the work, you understand how it will be built

Confidence working in fast-paced, deadline-driven environments

Clear, concise communication with internal teams, clients, and trade partners

A reputation for accuracy, accountability, and follow-through
