about us
. This posting is for an existing vacancy. This is a full-time, on-site role based in Mississauga. A tender set lands on your desk and you decide which trades to invite, chase and level their pricing, find the scopes nobody covered, price the risk, and put a number on the table you can defend to management and to the client. You’ll work across our full project mix — typically $1M to $15M — closing 50+ bids a year as part of our estimating team, with full support behind you. You’ll report to our Estimating lead and work closely with the project managers who build what you price. Detailed, accurate estimates for material, labour, equipment, subcontracts and construction facilities Tender drawing and specification analysis — flagging design issues, buildability problems, schedule risk and cost-saving opportunities before they become change orders Pre-bid meetings, tender walks and site visits Subcontractor scope development and review; analysing contractor quotes for best value Quotes and design proposals for service calls and new projects Post-bid analysis — comparing estimate to actual and feeding what you learn back into the next one 5+ years of construction estimating experience, with bid-close ownership on the general-contractor side. Fluency with a real takeoff tool — PlanSwift, Bluebeam, On-Screen Takeoff, Procore or equivalent — and strong Excel. ~ Working knowledge of the GTA subcontractor base, Ontario pricing and CCDC contract forms — you know who to call and roughly what things cost here. ~ A degree or diploma in Civil Engineering, Construction Management or a related field Project management or construction supervision background Compensation of $75,000 – $100,000, plus a performance-based incentive tied to bid hit rate and company performance Access to family-friendly health and medical programs A vibrant corporate culture We believe it’s the little details that make for an exceptional customer experience. Four steps: a 20-minute call with our recruiter, a 45-minute conversation with the hiring manager, a 90-minute on-site session where you work through a real (redacted) bid package with our team, and a short final conversation. Our organization may use automated tools, including artificial intelligence (AI) or algorithm-assisted systems, to support the initial review of applications. These tools are used only to assist our recruiters and hiring managers; We actively encourage applicants from all backgrounds, including those with disabilities.
