Property Rebuild Estimator

Ottawa, Canada Paul Davis Ottawa Full time

**Property Rebuild Estimator**

**If you are exploring professional/career opportunities and expecting to read a typical job description, you will be disappointed in what you find here.**

**At Paul Davis, we don’t obsess over technical ability and relevant experiences since we know we can train/teach the Paul Davis way to those who have a winning spirit, those who have a history of success throughout their career, and those who have personal core values that line up with what we hold near and dear.**

**The first step in our recruiting process is to initiate conversations with others who are searching for the things of life that are congruent with what we’re striving to do within the network of the 392 Paul Davis offices. As a group, we are all motivated to provide opportunities for great people to provide extraordinary care while serving people in their time of need. After establishing that you are aligned with all that motivates us, we would only then talk about initiating an interviewing process.**

**We are a busy/growing business and today, we have an immediate opening for a Property Rebuild Desk Estimator (soon to be two) Rather than offer a Job Description and a set of requirements/qualifications that you would be expected to match, we present a typical “Day In the Life Of ” scenario of a resource who would hold that position within the Paul Davis Ottawa location. Though it is not a testimony of a current employee, we present it in the First Person - believing that it is an accurate representation of what our Property Rebuild Estimators go through daily.**
- I start my day with a daily ZOOM call where each member of the Estimating team presents a status update on all the projects that have been assigned to us. Today, I gave an update on where I am with the 8 projects, I am currently building estimates for. As it stands, I am on track to deliver most of them within the expected 5-day lifecycle but there are a couple that is frustrating me._
- I don’t understand some of the details that came with a couple of the assignments and I’m going to have to call the scoping team and have them walk through what is really going on at that loss site. The 3-D imaging and reports package I am expected to write my estimate from aren’t clear. Hopefully, they can explain it to me or provide me with a few more details/pictures to sort it out. Otherwise, I’m going to have to take a run over to the job site and see what’s going on for myself. Not a huge deal but each trip does eat up some of my time. I need to do it though because my estimates are expected to hit margins, so anything that is not included will negatively impact that._
- Seems like I must do a site visit but before I head out, I’ll review the client protocol/estimating rules to ensure my estimates properly reflect them and then jump into Xactimate and pound out 2-3 draft estimates so that I can send them to the Project Managers and hopefully get some feedback during tomorrow morning’s project review meeting._
- I have a personal appointment today at 3:00 p.m. but it isn’t consequential to anyone related to our company - given that I am not really tied to a desk or a clock. In proving my loyalty and delivering on the promises of all I am accountable for, I have earned the trust to run my own schedule and timetable. Management has expressed confidence in me knowing that I will make up the time and deliver results, as expected._
- If I am to engage with my company and provide extraordinary care while serving people in their time of need, I strive to maintain discipline in tracking my performance scorecard and ramp up my level of effort if my performance indicators show that I am lagging. Paul Davis is not a typical construction company and much of the work we do has an emergency element attached to it. In my role, the majority of estimates I write are related to restoring residential/commercial/institutional properties that have suffered damages caused by water, fire, wind, and numerous other perils. It is imperative to me that I perform my work with a sense of urgency to help restore properties and lives._
- If challenges/missing details have gotten in the way of meeting my deliverables, I will present them to the team tomorrow during our ZOOM call. The team is great at sharing information and coaching each other through the challenges of complex structures._
