About the Role

We’re looking for an experienced Lead Mechanical Estimator to manage the full bidding and pre-construction process for mechanical projects. This individual will lead estimating efforts from concept to closeout—performing take-offs, analyzing costs, and developing competitive proposals.

This is a key leadership role for someone who thrives in a fast-paced environment, understands the mechanical construction process, and enjoys the challenge of winning work through precision and strategy.

What you'll do:

  • Lead the estimating process for HVAC, plumbing, and process piping projects from start to finish.
  • Perform and review detailed quantity take-offs for materials, labor, and equipment.
  • Analyze subcontractor and vendor proposals for accuracy and scope alignment.
  • Develop comprehensive cost estimates and bid proposals in coordination with project teams.
  • Build and maintain relationships with suppliers and subcontractors to ensure competitive pricing.
  • Identify value engineering opportunities and cost-saving solutions.
  • Prepare budgets, cash flow projections, and assist with preconstruction planning.

What you bring:

  • Several years of experience in mechanical construction estimating (HVAC, plumbing, or process piping).
  • Strong ability to read and interpret drawings, specifications, and contracts.
  • Proficiency with estimating software such as Accubid, PlanSwift, Trimble, BlueBeam, ProCore.
  • Experience collaborating with general contractors, engineers, and project managers.
  • Exceptional attention to detail, organization, and communication skills.
  • Leadership mindset and desire to mentor others.
  • Bachelor’s degree in Construction Management, Engineering, or related field preferred (or equivalent experience).

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
