SR Estimator-Heavy Civil/Highway
role at
J. Banicki Construction, Inc.
J Banicki Construction is looking for an experienced SR Estimator that has experience in Heavy Civil Construction. If you’re a Senior Heavy Civil Estimator who’s tired of being a “button‑pusher” and ready to own bids, influence strategy, and win meaningful work, Banicki is looking for you. At J Banicki Construction, estimating isn’t back‑office support — it’s a competitive advantage. We trust experienced estimators to think critically, challenge assumptions, and help drive how the company grows in Arizona’s most complex infrastructure markets.
This is a role for someone who wants authority, accountability, and respect — and who thrives in a fast‑moving, high‑expectation environment. You’ll lead estimating efforts for major heavy civil infrastructure projects across Arizona, spanning scopes such as mass grading and earthwork, concrete structures, aggregate placement, asphalt paving, airport taxiways and aprons, PCCP, and other transportation infrastructure work. You’ll partner closely with the Chief Estimator, project managers, and executive leadership to develop smart, competitive bid strategies that balance accuracy, risk, and profitability — not just the lowest number on bid day.
Why High‑Level Estimators Choose Banicki
You lead bids, not just take direction
Your experience is trusted and listened to at the leadership table
You work on large‑scale, technically complex heavy civil and aviation projects
You’re backed by an operations team that executes what you sell
You join a contractor with a strong backlog and long‑term stability
You’re surrounded by people who want to win — and know how to do it
What’s In It For You
Top‑tier compensation with up to 10% annual bonus
401(k) with 5% company match
Full medical, dental & vision benefits
Paid vacation & holidays
Tuition reimbursement & continued professional development
Clear runway for growth into lead or preconstruction leadership roles
Work‑life balance that respects performance — not micromanagement
Your Impact
Analyze plans, specs, and geotechnical reports with a risk‑first mindset
Perform site visits and pre‑bid evaluations
Define self‑performed vs. subcontracted scopes
Build and issue subcontractor and supplier bid packages
Drive pricing strategy, including DBE/SBE participation when required
Develop full estimates using HCSS HeavyBid (takeoffs, logic, assemblies)
Analyze subcontractor and supplier quotes; make award recommendations
Lead bid reviews and challenge assumptions before bid day
Influence how Banicki positions itself to win work — consistently
What We Expect
Bachelor’s degree in Construction Management, Engineering, or equivalent experience
5+ years of heavy civil / roadway estimating experience (aviation a strong plus)
Proven success estimating grading, concrete, asphalt, aggregate, and transportation scopes
Advanced experience with estimating software, including:
HCSS HeavyBid
AGTEK, OST, P6, Excel (or similar)
Strong communication skills and confidence presenting to leadership
Competitive mindset with a “win the work” mentality
Professional, direct, and collaborative — no egos, no excuses
