🗺️New York, NY

💰$150,000 +/- | Permanent | On‑site (Hybrid 1 day optional)

🏢 The Company

For more than a century, this New York steel contractor has been the quiet force behind some of the city's most recognisable buildings. They specialise in structural and miscellaneous steel across complex urban environments - tight sites, occupied facilities, and projects where logistics matter as much as fabrication.

They operate from a large fabrication facility supported by a 100‑person team and a strong, diversified backlog. With senior retirements approaching and continued commercial growth, they're creating space for the next generation of leaders to step forward.

If you're an estimator who knows the New York market, understands the rhythm of steel, and wants a seat at a table where decisions actually get made, this is your moment.

📐 The Role

Review drawings, specifications, and bid documents for structural and miscellaneous steel packages.
Perform steel take‑offs, quantity surveys, and pricing across materials, fabrication, coatings, freight, and erection.
Solicit, analyse, and negotiate subcontractor and supplier quotations.
Assess labour requirements and constructability constraints for shop and field operations.
Prepare detailed bid proposals, budgets, and cost breakdowns.
Attend bid reviews and support contract handover once work is awarded.
