Job Description
What's the role?

We're hiring a  Senior Estimator  to support high‑value projects across our Workforce Accommodations, Forestry & Energy Services, and Integrated Facilities Management business units.

If you thrive in a fast‑paced, analytical environment and want to make a meaningful impact, this position plays a key role in developing accurate, timely, and competitive full‑cost estimates for projects that collectively exceed $1B in annual volume.

What you'll do

Estimating accuracy is essential to our success — and the  Sr. Estimator  directly supports our ability to win new business, mitigate financial risk, and deliver strong results for our clients and partners.

Collaborate with the estimating team to define bid strategies for each opportunity.

Review proposal specifications, drawings, and attend pre‑bid meetings to determine scope and requirements.

Coordinate with Sales to ensure alignment with client expectations.

Evaluate and recommend allowances for indirect costs, risk, escalation, and contingency.

Coordinate with Indigenous Relations to ensure partnership requirements and associated costs are built into estimates.

Work with Operations and the Director of Estimating to review and approve cost estimates.

Review estimate details for completeness and accuracy.

Support the development and refinement of cost‑estimate models to streamline the bid process.

Conduct feasibility and cost analyses on alternative methods or materials.

Complete post‑bid reviews and communicate lessons learned.

Produce and analyze monthly job‑cost reports to compare projected versus actual performance and support process improvements.

Additional Responsibilities

Maintain alignment with Sales and the Proposal team.

Understand and follow workplace safety procedures.

Participate in presentations to corporate management and clients as required.

Assist with materials studies, method evaluations, and cost recommendations.

Qualifications
Who are we looking for?

Experience in Workforce Accommodations, Facilities Management, or commercial construction estimating (preferred).

Technical training in construction or an equivalent combination of training and estimating experience.

Relevant post‑secondary education (preferred).

Strong skills in Microsoft Office, Excel and Word.

A collaborative, communicative approach with the ability to manage shifting priorities.

Some flexibility required as there may be occasional evening or weekend work depending on project timelines.

Additional Information
WHAT’S IN IT FOR YOU?

Be part of an industry that's more important than ever!

Award winning safety culture.

A flexible hybrid work model.

Supportive team environment with room to grow together.
