Join a Mechanical Contractor That’s Actually Growing.

If you’re an estimator who knows how to turn takeoffs into strategy, build accurate budgets, and partner with operations to win work—this is the role you’ve been looking for.

We’re representing a respected mechanical subcontractor known for delivering complex HVAC, piping, and plumbing scopes on time and with precision. As we expand our project backlog, we’re adding an Estimator who wants real influence, real opportunity, and a seat at the table.

What You’ll Do

Lead mechanical estimates for ground-up, TI, healthcare, industrial, commercial, or mission‑critical projects

Perform takeoffs for HVAC, piping, and plumbing systems using modern estimating tools

Develop detailed cost proposals, scope narratives, budgets, and VE options

Review plans, specs, RFIs, and addenda to assess scope gaps and reduce risk

Collaborate with PMs, operations, and preconstruction teams to ensure accuracy and handoff readiness

Build and maintain subcontractor/vendor relationships for competitive pricing

Participate in bid reviews, strategy sessions, and client presentations when needed

What You Bring

5+ years of mechanical estimating experience (HVAC, plumbing, piping, sheet metal, or related trades)

Strong understanding of mechanical systems, installation methods, and construction sequencing

Ability to read and interpret blueprints, spec books, and engineering documents

Solid communication and the confidence to defend your numbers

Detail‑oriented mindset with the ability to juggle multiple bids and deadlines

What’s In It for You

Competitive base salary up to $155K + bonus

Strong project pipeline with stable work year‑round

A leadership team that listens and invests in its people

Opportunities for advancement into Senior Estimator or Preconstruction roles

A collaborative, no‑ego culture that values expertise and accountability
