The Role
Join a highly respected, no-drama structural steel erection contractor in Texas known for safe, on-time project delivery and long-term client relationships.

- Collaborate in-person with project teams, GCs, and fabricators to ensure accurate, buildable bids
- Lead or support a small estimating team (for Estimating Manager level), coaching and standardizing bid strategies
- Use Bluebeam, and traditional takeoff methods to produce accurate estimates
Requirements
- Strong steel erection estimating background (fabrication-only experience not suitable)
- Understanding of field operations, crew build-up, crane planning, and erection sequencing
- Comfortable collaborating face-to-face with operations and ownership
- Ability to estimate without relying solely on model-based tools
- Prior experience in a similar role at an established steel erection contractor
- Estimating Manager applicants: leadership experience managing 2-3 estimators, developing processes and bid strategies
