Why This Job

CMC is currently seeking an Estimating Engineer to be responsible for preparing detailed cost estimates and financial analyses for capital projects in a dynamic manufacturing environment. This role demands a keen understanding of technical specifications, construction methodologies, and market conditions. You will collaborate with multidisciplinary teams to ensure that projects are financially viable from inception through execution, thereby supporting strategic expansion and process improvement initiatives.

CMC provides an excellent opportunity to learn the steel, construction reinforcement and ground stabilization industries and to grow in your career. Whether you will spend your day brainstorming in an office cubicle, operating a crane, running manufacturing equipment or troubleshooting technical obstacles, at CMC, you'll get the training and support from your team that you need to excel in your role and reach your full potential.

What You'll Do

  • Prepare comprehensive cost estimates covering materials, labor, equipment, and subcontracted services by analyzing engineering drawings, technical specifications, and vendor quotations.
  • Evaluate project scopes and potential risk factors. Provide accurate budgeting forecasts and highlight cost-saving opportunities to mitigate financial risks.
  • Work closely with project managers, design engineers, procurement teams, and finance departments to ensure that estimates accurately reflect project requirements and current market conditions.
  • Monitor project cost trends throughout the lifecycle, providing periodic updates and revising estimates as necessary to reflect actual spending.
  • Develop detailed cost reports, bid packages, and supporting documentation that meet regulatory standards and corporate guidelines.
  • Initiate and manage communications with vendors and subcontractors to obtain competitive and accurate quotes, ensuring quality and adherence to project timelines.
  • Support the development and enhancement of estimating methodologies and procedures to improve accuracy, efficiency, and overall cost management practices within the organization.
  • What You'll Need

  • A minimum of 5 years' experience in capital project estimation, with a preference for experience gained in a manufacturing or industrial setting.
  • Expertise in using estimation software tools (e.g., Bluebeam, RSMeans, AspenTech, or equivalent). A sound understanding of construction methods, cost analysis, and accounting practices is essential.
  • Strong analytical abilities with attention to detail, enabling the identification of cost drivers and potential savings.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills to clearly articulate complex technical and financial information.
  • Demonstrated experience in working collaboratively within multidisciplinary teams to achieve project objectives.
  • Experience with manufacturing or industrial-scale capital projects.
  • Familiarity with project management software and enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems.
  • Professional certifications such as AACE Certified Estimating Professional or PMP are an added advantage.
  • Your Education

  • Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Construction Management, or a related technical field.
  • We are CMC, a Fortune500 company at the leading edge of our industry. Our construction reinforcement and steel products have supported construction projects and structures around the world.
