  • Develop conceptual estimates, detailed cost estimates, budgets, and pricing throughout each phase of design.

  • Coordinate with owners, architects, engineers, consultants, subcontractors, and vendors during design development.
  • Prepare bid packages, solicit subcontractor pricing, evaluate proposals, and level bids.
  • Identify scope gaps, budget risks, scheduling concerns, and procurement challenges early in the project lifecycle.
  • Support project scheduling, phasing, logistics planning, and procurement strategies.
  • Collaborate closely with project managers and field leadership to ensure a seamless transition into construction.
  • Maintain strong relationships with clients, trade partners, and design professionals to support repeat business opportunities.
  • Improve estimating standards, preconstruction workflows, and departmental best practices.

Requirements

  • 10+ years of commercial construction industry experience preferred.
  • Strong background in commercial estimating, budgeting, conceptual pricing, and cost management.
  • Experience delivering projects using design-build, CMAR, negotiated, hard bid, and select bid delivery methods.
  • Ability to interpret construction drawings, specifications, contracts, and technical documentation.
  • Experience preparing bid packages and managing subcontractor and supplier pricing.
  • Knowledge of constructability analysis, value engineering, procurement planning, and project logistics.
  • Excellent communication, leadership, organizational, and relationship-building skills.
  • Ability to manage multiple projects and deadlines in a fast-paced environment.
  • Must be located in or able to reliably commute to Lenexa, KS or the greater Kansas City metro area.

Benefits

  • Competitive salary based on experience.
  • Stable company with a strong backlog of commercial projects.
  • Opportunities for long-term career advancement and leadership growth.
