Job Description

Assistant Estimator – Commercial Construction

Location:

Charlotte, NC

Salary:

$65,000 – $85,000 base + full benefits package

We’re working with a growing Charlotte-based general contractor to help them hire an Assistant Estimator. This team focuses on both ground-up and interior commercial projects — including gas stations, convenience stores, and office upfits.

This is a great opportunity to join a company where you’ll be valued, mentored, and genuinely treated with respect. The leadership team is experienced, down-to-earth, and committed to building a positive, flexible work culture. If you’re looking to grow your estimating skills in a place that doesn’t run on ego — this could be a great fit.

What You’ll Be Doing:

· Support the estimating team in preparing take-offs, budgets, and detailed cost estimates

· Review drawings and specs for both interior and ground-up commercial projects

· Work with subcontractors to obtain and evaluate pricing

· Assist with bid proposals and help manage bid schedules and deadlines

· Collaborate closely with Project Managers and Senior Estimators during preconstruction

· Use Procore to support estimating and project tracking processes

What We’re Looking For:

· 1–3 years of experience in estimating commercial construction projects

· Exposure to both interior renovations and ground-up builds is required

· Experience using Procore

· Detail-oriented, organized, and eager to learn

· Strong communication skills and the ability to work well in a team environment

Why This Role Stands Out:

· $65,000 – $85,000 base salary depending on experience

· Full benefits package (health, dental, vision, PTO, etc.)

· Supportive and flexible leadership team

· Fun, down-to-earth company culture

· Great opportunity for growth and mentorship in a company that’s scaling quickly
