Estimator

Skills required:
In this role you will need strong analytical and mathematical skills as well as being able to pay attention to details and the "big picture". Field construction experience is an asset.

Job Description:
Review plans and specifications, collect sub-contractor pricing, examine working drawings and determine the various trades needed, and estimate the costs involving labour, material and overhead components for work to be bid (includes determining actual vs. estimated costs).

A trade estimator would perform many of the above mentioned duties but would be focusing only on one trade, i.e. plumbing, as opposed to a variety of trades.

Salary Range: $25,000 - $65,000
