Management$82k–$123k/yrFull-time

The Purpose of Your Role

The Estimator II will help turn project plans and specifications into accurate estimates that give customers and project teams a clear understanding of scope, cost, and expectations. Working across disciplines such as plumbing, piping, and sheet metal, you'll use your technical knowledge to develop estimates for medium to large projects, including plan and specification, design assist, and design build work.

What You'll Be Part Of

  • Work closely with customers, vendors, subcontractors, and internal teams to develop competitive and practical project proposals.
  • Review drawings and specifications, perform takeoffs, and develop complete project cost estimates.
  • Evaluate labor, materials, equipment, and subcontractor costs to determine the most effective approach.
  • Obtain vendor and subcontractor quotes, compare options, and make recommendations based on cost, quality, and availability.
  • Develop proposals, document estimating assumptions, and maintain supporting project information.
  • Work with other departments and disciplines while providing guidance and mentorship to team members.

What We're Looking For In You

  • Experience in estimating, engineering, or the mechanical construction trades
  • 4+ years of Microsoft Office experience, particularly with Excel and Word
  • A strong understanding of construction, mechanical systems, safety, and project documentation
  • The ability to read drawings and specifications and translate them into accurate estimates

This Position Is What This Position Is (and Is Not)

  • Focused on developing accurate and competitive project estimates
  • A technical role that combines construction knowledge with cost analysis
  • A collaborative position working with customers, vendors, subcontractors, and internal teams

This Position Is Not Limited to

  • Data entry or administrative estimating work
  • A field construction management position

Why This Position Stands Out

  • You'll have the opportunity to work on a variety of mechanical construction projects and see how your estimates influence the work before it reaches the field.
  • The position also provides room to expand your technical knowledge, work across different disciplines, and help develop other team members as your experience grows.

Our Company

  • Harris offers you the best of both worlds: the stability, resources and opportunities of a national company, and the team culture, creative spirit and customer loyalty of a local business.
  • We handle projects of all sizes and complexity from multiple regional locations across the country.

Benefits + Compensation

  • Medical, dental, vision, and life insurance
  • 401K with company match
  • Vacation time, sick time, and paid holidays
  • Paid Parental leave
  • Short-Term Incentive Plan
