Ready to put your estimating experience behind projects that make a visible impact across the Kansas City region?

A growing heavy civil contractor is looking for a driven Estimator to help pursue and secure major concrete and transportation infrastructure projects. This is an opportunity to join an established team, influence which projects the company takes on, and play a key role in its continued growth.

What You’ll Estimate

• Concrete paving and full-depth pavement repair
• Bridge approaches and transportation infrastructure
• Sidewalks, curbs, gutters, and concrete flatwork
• Reinforcing steel and structural concrete scopes
• MoDOT, KDOT, municipal, and other public-sector projects

What You’ll Do

• Build accurate and competitive estimates from initial review through final bid
• Complete quantity takeoffs and develop labor, material, equipment, and subcontractor pricing
• Review plans, specifications, schedules, and contract requirements
• Identify project risks, logistical challenges, and value-engineering opportunities
• Develop winning bid strategies with company leadership
• Build relationships with subcontractors, suppliers, owners, and public agencies
• Attend pre-bid meetings and project site visits

• Track historical costs and production data to strengthen future estimates

What You’ll Bring

• Three or more years of construction estimating experience preferred

• Strong knowledge of construction plans, specifications, and bid documents
• Ability to manage multiple bids and deadlines without sacrificing accuracy
• Strong communication, organization, and problem-solving skills
