About the Role:

The Federated Co-operatives Limited is seeking a skilled Estimator and Project Planner to join our team.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Provide leadership and expertise for all in-house project planning and development, including project scope, plans, material/component specifications and supporting material/component estimates.
  • Monitor the building's material inventory levels, forecast future requirements, and order inventory accordingly.
  • Maintain and develop a relationship with current contractors, architects, engineers, building inspectors, draftsperson/designers, material vendors, trades, local Co-ops, local Home Builders/Contractor Associations, and customers in general.
  • Develop new contractor relationships and elevate the Local Co-ops presence in the market.
  • Read and interpret construction plans, blueprints, or computer-aided drawings and provide customers with estimates outlining the overall building material requirements. Suggest changes to construction plans where building code, structural integrity or efficiency may be a concern.
  • Support the tendering process, providing quantities, costing/pricing and descriptive information associated with the overall building project. Provide product recommendations to improve design quality, efficiency and structural integrity as needed.
  • Develop and maintain a Vendor Reference Database to track and specify material-specific information (product availability, unit cost, lead times) and research alternative vendors where specialty goods are needed.
  • Able to work and perform in a team environment.
  • Other duties as assigned.

About You:

We are looking for a candidate with a Certificate and/or Diploma in Building/Architectural Science or Construction Management, and 3-6 years of relevant and related experience. You should have strong computer knowledge and skills to develop spreadsheets, documents, and customer files. Excellent interpersonal, customer service and relationship-building skills are also essential. Strong communication skills, both oral and written, are required, as well as decision-making skills in a fast-paced and pressurized work environment. Problem-solving skills, attention to detail and business savvy skills are also necessary.

What We Offer:

  • Benefits plan includes Extended Health Care, Dental, Long-Term Disability & Life Insurance.
  • Employer Matched Pension Plan (5% matched).
  • Employee Family Assistance Program.
  • Paid vacation.
  • Competitive wages paid bi-weekly.
