Senior Estimator — Own the numbers. Shape the work. Alpha & Omega Painting / Renovations · Coquitlam · Full-time Up to $150,000 for the right person

Most estimators at our size are stuck rewriting the owner’s quotes, chasing field chaos, or ballparking jobs that lose money.

This seat is different.

We’re a ~$4M painting and renovation company in the Lower Mainland. Work is real. Clients are real. Margin matters. We’re hiring one senior estimator we trust to own quoting — on-site, accurate, and decisive — so the owner isn’t living inside every estimate.

What you get

Real ownership — your numbers carry. We want an A-player we’d happily pay $150k, not a quote clerk

On-site work — walk jobs, price what’s actually there, talk to customers like a pro

Variety that keeps you sharp — residential, strata, commercial, light reno — not the same unit forever

A company investing in systems — ops, costing, and handoffs are being built on purpose

Direct line to the owner — decisions move; no corporate maze

Respect for craft — we win the right jobs and walk away from the wrong ones

What we need from you

10+ years estimating (painting / reno / related trade or GC)

Heavy on-site quoting experience

Clear handoffs to PMs so jobs get built as sold

The judgment to protect margin before the quote goes out

What this is not

Sales-only ballpark pricing

A role where the owner rewrites every number

If you’re the estimator other companies try to keep — and you want a seat where your judgment actually runs the front end of the business — let’s talk.
