  • Project Coordination & Documentation

  • Maintain clear documentation of estimate assumptions and updates.
  • Participate in project and reconciliation meetings to understand objectives and workflows.
  • Support data entry and cost database maintenance to ensure consistency and accuracy.
  • Research market conditions, material pricing, and labor trends to enhance estimate reliability.
  • Qualifications & Experience

  • Bachelor’s degree in construction management, engineering, quantity surveying, architecture, or a related field, or equivalent knowledge, is required.
  • Proficiency in takeoff and estimating software such as On-Screen Takeoff, MII, or Success is required.
