Estimator (Atlanta Location)
We are seeking a detail-oriented Estimator to join a growing project team based in Atlanta. This role will be responsible for preparing accurate cost estimates and supporting the successful planning and delivery of a range of projects. The successful candidate will combine strong commercial awareness with excellent analytical and communication skills.
You will review drawings, specifications, scopes of work and other project documentation to develop comprehensive estimates. Working closely with suppliers, subcontractors, project managers and technical colleagues, you will ensure that pricing is competitive, realistic and aligned with project requirements.
Key responsibilities
- Prepare detailed estimates, quotations and tender submissions within agreed deadlines.
- Analyse plans, specifications, schedules and bills of quantities to identify labour, materials, equipment and other costs.
- Obtain and evaluate supplier and subcontractor quotations.
- Identify potential risks, exclusions, assumptions and opportunities for value engineering.
- Maintain accurate estimating records and update pricing databases as required.
- Collaborate with internal teams to clarify project requirements and resolve discrepancies.
- Support post-tender reviews, negotiations and project handovers.
- Monitor market conditions and maintain awareness of relevant pricing trends.
About you
You will ideally have previous experience in estimating within construction, engineering, manufacturing or a related industry. A strong understanding of cost planning, procurement and project documentation is essential, together with confidence using spreadsheets and estimating software. Experience interpreting technical drawings and specifications would be highly advantageous.
You should be commercially focused, organised and capable of managing several estimates simultaneously. Excellent attention to detail is essential, as is the ability to communicate clearly with both technical and non-technical stakeholders. A relevant qualification in construction, quantity surveying, engineering, business or a related discipline would be beneficial, although equivalent practical experience will also be considered.
This is an excellent opportunity for an ambitious Estimator to develop their career in a collaborative environment, contributing to varied projects while building strong professional relationships across the business.
