About The Company:

I'm partnered with a mid-sized General Contractor in Charlotte that has experienced rapid growth over the past few years — and they're not slowing down anytime soon. With plans to expand another 30%, they're now looking for a Lead / Senior Estimator to join the team and help shape the future of their preconstruction department.

They work on a wide range of commercial projects including restaurants, gas stations, medical offices, and convenience stores. The culture is relaxed, friendly, and flexible — built around trust and accountability rather than micromanagement.

About The Role:

You'll work directly with the partners of the business, mentor a Junior Estimator, and play a key role in shaping the company's future. As the business continues to expand, you'll have the genuine opportunity to lead and grow your own estimating team.

What You'll Be Doing:

• Prepare detailed estimates, budgets, and proposals
• Review drawings, specs, and scopes to ensure accuracy and completeness
• Manage subcontractor pricing, bid reviews, and value engineering
• Partner with clients, architects, engineers, and internal teams for a smooth project handover
• Mentor and support Junior Estimators as they develop

What We're Looking For:

• 5+ years of experience estimating commercial ground-up construction projects
• Strong knowledge of preconstruction, cost management, and bid strategy
• Procore experience strongly preferred
• Proven leadership qualities — confident guiding others, making decisions, and being the go-to person in the department
• Forward-thinking mindset with a desire to help shape and grow the company's preconstruction function

What's On

Offer:

• $110,000 – $155,000 base salary (DOE)
• 401(k) plan with company match up to 4%
• Health, dental, and vision insurance
• Company cell phone and laptop provided
• Relaxed, flexible, and friendly culture
• Stability of a well-established GC with the excitement of a growing business
• Supportive environment that values ideas, autonomy, and work-life balance
