Estimator - Underground Utilities Experience

At Golderado, we're constantly pushing the limits of what we've done in the past - propelling ourselves toward bigger and better opportunities, while exploring new market sectors and services. So, it only seems natural that we'd hire people who have their own voice and aren't afraid to use it. These are people who are simultaneously critical, creative and captivated by construction. They make our business their business and follow a path that with continuous learning and an innovative spirit leads them to be recognized as leaders in the industry. We hire these types of people knowing they are as diverse as we are, and they come on board because they share our core values. Then we simply give them the freedom to take their career (and Golderado) further.

Key Information:
  1. Analyze contract documents (drawings, specifications, contract deliverables, etc.) to prepare self-perform cost estimates of projects for Underground Utility projects (site development, detail excavation).
  2. Assemble accurate, timely, and well-organized estimates, including hard-bid, construction management, and design-build.
  3. Hours: Based on a 40-hour work week (8 hours a day, Monday - Friday), with overtime as required. Hourly rate is dependent on experience. Health benefits and vacation pay offered.
Job Description:

Organize sub-contractor quotes when the bid is successful, re-writing binders and assisting the buy-out process. Set up new cost estimates in bidding software. Develop schedule for accuracy and determine production rates. Contact subcontractors and vendors for specific divisions to get external pricing. Monitor the success of a project, noting potential challenges and building relationships with sub-trades for future opportunities. Identify potential project risks. Attend pre-tender meetings & site visits, where applicable.
