<h1>Senior Electrical Estimator</h1>
<p>Every bid you price is a promise the field has to keep. You will turn drawings, specs, and site realities into electrical estimates that protect margin, schedule, and the customer’s budget—so crews build the right system the first time, with fewer surprises and work that holds up over time.</p>
<h2>Performance Objectives</h2>
<ul>
<li>Produce complete electrical estimates for commercial and industrial MEP projects that win profitable work and stand up to buyout.</li>
<li>Quantify labor, material, equipment, and subcontract scope from drawings and specs so field costs stay within the bid.</li>
<li>Build clear alternates and value options that match the customer’s budget, application, and efficiency goals without cutting quality.</li>
<li>Flag scope gaps, code issues, and coordination risks with mechanical and plumbing early enough to change the number before it is submitted.</li>
<li>Hand off a priced, documented package the project team can buy, schedule, and build from—no missing assemblies, no mystery allowances.</li>
<li>Track estimate versus actual on closed jobs and tighten unit rates, labor factors, and vendor pricing so the next bid is sharper.</li>
<li>Meet bid deadlines with a review-ready package leadership can defend in front of the customer.</li>
</ul>
<h2>Environment &amp; Resources</h2>
<p>You will sit with a small, hands-on estimating and project team inside a family-owned mechanical contractor. Work covers install, service, and troubleshooting of MEP systems. You report to the estimating or operations lead, use current takeoff and estimating software plus supplier pricing, and have direct access to field leads who know how the work actually goes in. Bid volume is selective; accuracy matters more than volume.</p>
<h2>Essential Qualifications</h2>
<ul>
<li>Proven record pricing electrical scope on commercial or industrial construction, including labor, gear, feeders, devices, and controls interfaces.</li>
<li>Ability to read electrical drawings, specifications, and addenda and convert them into a complete, auditable takeoff.</li>
<li>Working knowledge of NEC requirements that change cost, and of how electrical ties into mechanical and plumbing systems.</li>
<li>Experience building vendor and subcontractor pricing and explaining the number to non-estimators.</li>
<li>Discipline to document assumptions, exclusions, and alternates so the field inherits a clean scope.</li>

Senior Electrical Estimator
***************************

Every bid you price is a promise the field has to keep. You will
turn drawings, specs, and site realities into electrical
estimates that protect margin, schedule, and the customer’s
budget—so crews build the right system the first time, with fewer
surprises and work that holds up over time.

----------------------
Performance Objectives
----------------------

* Produce complete electrical estimates for commercial and
industrial MEP projects that win profitable work and stand up to
buyout.
* Quantify labor, material, equipment, and subcontract scope from
drawings and specs so field costs stay within the bid.
* Build clear alternates and value options that match the
customer’s budget, application, and efficiency goals without
cutting quality.
* Flag scope gaps, code issues, and coordination risks with
mechanical and plumbing early enough to change the number before
it is submitted.
* Hand off a priced, documented package the project team can buy,
schedule, and build from—no missing assemblies, no mystery
allowances.
* Track estimate versus actual on closed jobs and tighten unit
rates, labor factors, and vendor pricing so the next bid is
sharper.
* Meet bid deadlines with a review-ready package leadership can
defend in front of the customer.

Environment & Resources
---------------------------

You will sit with a small, hands-on estimating and project team
inside a family-owned mechanical contractor. Work covers install,
service, and troubleshooting of MEP systems. You report to the
estimating or operations lead, use current takeoff and estimating
software plus supplier pricing, and have direct access to field
leads who know how the work actually goes in. Bid volume is
selective; accuracy matters more than volume.

------------------------
Essential Qualifications
------------------------

* Proven record pricing electrical scope on commercial or
industrial construction, including labor, gear, feeders, devices,
and controls interfaces.
* Ability to read electrical drawings, specifications, and
addenda and convert them into a complete, auditable takeoff.
* Working knowledge of NEC requirements that change cost, and of
how electrical ties into mechanical and plumbing systems.
* Experience building vendor and subcontractor pricing and
explaining the number to non-estimators.
* Discipline to document assumptions, exclusions, and alternates
so the field inherits a clean scope.
* Comfort in a small shop where you own the estimate from first
look to handoff.

Why This Role
-------------

* Your number drives real jobs, not a bid mill—quality and
accountability are how the company keeps customers.
* Close loop with the people who install and service the systems,
so estimates improve from actual field results.
* Room to shape how electrical estimating is done as the practice
grows.
* Work that favors durable, efficient installations over the
cheapest path that fails later.

If you can price electrical work that crews can build and the
business can stand behind, send your resume and a short note on a
recent estimate you owned from takeoff through award.
