at
Jacobs
Base pay range: $85,000.00/yr – $132,750.00/yr
At Jacobs, we're challenging today to reinvent tomorrow by solving the world's most critical problems for thriving cities, resilient environments, mission‑critical outcomes, operational advancement, scientific discovery and cutting‑edge manufacturing, turning abstract ideas into realities that transform the world for good.
Our impact: We’re making our world better with every environmental project, and we know the importance of accurate estimates to the success of these projects. We’re looking for an experienced Electrical Estimator to prepare a wide range of estimates – from conceptual to detailed design – for complex water projects. Based in any U.S. location, you’ll review design documents, proposals, specifications, drawings, attend design development meetings and make site visits to define the scope of work and cost impacts required of the estimate process.
You’ll be a key contributor and mentor to a knowledgeable and supportive team as you prepare estimates by developing project work breakdown structures, calculating complete scope of work take‑offs, assisting contract staff with statements of work for subcontractors and vendors, applying construction means and methods, preparing schedules, calculating indirect field and owner’s costs.
Design teams will also collaborate with you on the quality and amount of input necessary to develop the required level of design‑build construction estimates. You’ll tap into both your creative and analytical sides in this role as you develop reports and presentations and analyze historical data. Bring your attention to detail and desire to grow, and we’ll help you pursue what drives you – so we can tackle challenging environmental projects together.
What You’ll Need
Bachelor’s degree in Engineering or Construction Management
Proficient skills in current technology (Word, Excel, estimating, scheduling and database software)
Demonstrated understanding of estimating organizational structure and process, including quantity take‑off, crew development, productivity relationships, material quotations, contingency/risk, knowledge of markup structures and estimate documentation
Proficient in quantitative risk analysis using software including @Risk and Primavera Risk analysis
Experience using industry estimating software, such as Timberline, HCSS Heavy Bid, and MII Estimating systems
Understanding of project scheduling; ability to use Primavera P6 and/or Microsoft Project
Able to travel to meet project needs
Water background in electrical estimating
Ideally, You’ll Also Have
Design Build background
Able to complete tasks independently
Adept at interpersonal relationship building and conflict resolution
