About Us

BUILD IT is a full-service general construction company with offices in Mississauga, ON and Calgary, AB.

We’ve helped hundreds of world-class brands and businesses build iconic destinations that reflect their vision and purpose - from storefronts that invite customers in, to workplaces that inspire teams to perform, to cultural spaces that truly stand apart.

Our team combines strategic thinking, construction expertise, and exceptional execution to bring bold concepts to life with precision and impact.

The Role This is a full-time, on-site Estimator role created to support our growth and rising project volume. You’ll own estimates from tender drawings to final bid: analyzing drawings and specs, building accurate pricing, managing subcontractor quotes, and presenting bids to management. You’ll work closely with our project management team, and your estimates will directly shape what we win and how profitably we build it.

What you’ll do

Prepare detailed, accurate estimates for material, labour, equipment, subcontracts, and general conditions.
Analyze tender drawings and specifications, and flag design issues, scheduling concerns, cost-saving opportunities, and constructability risks.
Identify qualified subcontractors, solicit competitive pricing, and review and level quotes for best value.
Develop and review subcontractor scopes of work.
Prepare quotes and proposals for new projects and service calls.
Attend pre-bid meetings, tender walks, and site visits.
Coordinate and present bids to management on time and organized.
Maintain the Master Tender List and keep growing our trade network.
Prepare bid status reports and make sure bids comply with specifications, contract terms, and bid invitations.

What we’re looking for

5–8 years of estimating experience in construction, including bidding general contract work.
Experience estimating ground-up construction.
Strong knowledge of construction materials, methods, and techniques.
Ability to read and interpret construction drawings and specifications.
Proficiency in estimating software (e.g., PlanSwift, Procore) and Microsoft Office or Google Workspace.
Strong written and verbal communication skills.
Sharp attention to detail and the ability to manage multiple bids and deadlines at once.
Ownership mindset: you take responsibility for results and find solutions when others get stuck.
Legally authorized to work in Canada.

Compensation & benefits

Base annual salary range: $75,000–$100,000 per year.
Benefits summary provided during the hiring process.

This posting is for a current vacancy. Our organization uses automated tools, including artificial intelligence (AI) or algorithm-assisted systems, to support the initial review of applications. These tools are used only to assist our recruiters and hiring managers; all hiring decisions include meaningful human involvement and final review.

BUILD IT is an equal opportunity employer. We actively encourage applicants from all backgrounds, including those with disabilities. Accommodations will be provided upon request for candidates participating in all phases of the hiring process.
