Commercial Mechanical Estimator

Full Time, Permanent

Clackamas, OR

Our client is a commercial mechanical contractor delivering projects across healthcare, data centres, hospitality, and other sectors. They are looking for a Mechanical Estimator who can take ownership of larger projects and help build lasting relationships with general contractors and design teams. You'll help shape budgets and solutions from early design through final pricing, supported by a close-knit team that values open communication, fresh ideas, and following through on commitments.

PERKS AND BENEFITS:

• Become an owner through the company's employee stock ownership plan (ESOP)

• 100% employer-sponsored healthcare and wellness coverage for you and your dependents

• 401(k), paid time off, paid holidays, and access to a personal financial planner

• Life insurance, an employee assistance program, and additional voluntary benefits

• A supportive team that welcomes new ideas, open conversations, and shared success

WHAT YOU WILL BE DOING:

• Build estimates for commercial wet and dry mechanical work, including ductwork, piping, equipment, labour, subcontractors, and project-specific requirements

• Develop conceptual budgets and refine pricing as designs progress, clearly documenting scope, assumptions, and risks

• Identify gaps in drawings and work with project managers and field leaders to understand how the work will be built

• Collaborate with general contractors and design teams on negotiated projects, design assist, and value engineering

• Manage quotes, addenda, drawing changes, and proposals while keeping the team informed through bid reviews

WHAT YOU BRING TO THE TABLE:

• Commercial mechanical construction knowledge and experience estimating both wet and dry scopes

• The ability to build a complete estimate from incomplete information, rather than relying solely on takeoffs from finished drawings

• Sound judgment about installation methods, labour, scheduling, and coordination with other trades

• Experience with conceptual budgets, negotiated work, or design assist that helps you contribute early in a project

• A collaborative approach: you seek field input, explain your decisions clearly, and take ownership of your work
