Original job description

Civil Construction Estimator

Fort St. John, BC | $100,000 - $140,000 | Full-Time, Year-Round | In Office

The Role

We’re hiring an experienced Civil Estimator who can take an estimate from the initial drawings and tender documents through to a complete bid submission.

You’ll work across civil, commercial, infrastructure, and light industrial projects, typically valued at $0.5M to $20M

The company is a family-owned general contractor based in Fort St. John, serving Northern BC since 1999 across civil, commercial, industrial, concrete, and infrastructure construction.

Responsibilities

Full-Cycle Estimating: Manage estimates from initial tender review through final bid submission.
Quantity Takeoffs & Costing: Complete detailed takeoffs and pricing for labour, equipment, materials, subcontractors, and suppliers.
Estimate Preparation: Prepare lump-sum, unit-rate, cost-plus, conceptual, and design-build estimates.
Drawings & Specifications: Review drawings, specifications, and tender documents to confirm scope, identify gaps, and understand project requirements.
Subcontractor & Supplier Pricing: Solicit, review, and incorporate subcontractor and supplier quotations.
Construction Planning: Work with Operations to determine sequencing, crew sizes, productivity, equipment requirements, schedules, and site constraints.
Risk & Contract Review: Identify estimating, contractual, construction, and site risks and account for them in the bid.
Bid Submission: Prepare tender forms, proposal documents, bid deposits, bonding and insurance requirements, schedules, and other submission documents.
Scheduling: Develop preliminary and critical-path schedules, milestone dates, and completion timelines for larger bids.
Site Review: Attend site visits and pre-tender meetings to identify site constraints and project challenges.
Estimating Data: Maintain and improve unit rates, historical costing, productivity information, and estimating tools.
Estimate Review: Compare completed project costs against estimates and use the results to improve future estimating accuracy.
Project Handover: Participate in estimate and project handover meetings with Operations.
Constructability & Alternatives: Review designs for cost effectiveness and recommend practical alternatives where appropriate.
Estimating Leadership: Maintain estimating standards, review estimates prepared by others, and support or mentor junior estimators as required.
Bid Strategy: Participate in bid/no-bid decisions and provide input on strategic pursuit opportunities.
Relationships: Work with clients, consultants, subcontractors, suppliers, Operations, and Business Development throughout the estimating process.

Relevant experience may include:

Municipal water, sewer, and storm infrastructure
Underground utilities and site servicing
Road construction and reconstruction
Earthworks, excavation, grading, and base preparation
Paving and parking lots
Bridges and structural culverts
Retaining walls
Landfill construction
Creek remediation and shoreline protection
Commercial construction and site development
Light industrial construction
Oil & gas-related civil and infrastructure work

Requirements

MANDATORY

Civil Estimating Experience: Strong experience estimating civil construction projects for a general contractor.
Full-Cycle Estimating: Able to independently take estimates from tender review through quantity takeoffs, costing, and final bid submission.
Civil Construction Knowledge: Strong practical understanding of civil construction methods, costs, and how the work is built in the field.
Tendering: Strong knowledge of bid preparation, pricing, subcontractor procurement, and bid closing procedures.
Driver’s Licence: Valid driver’s licence and clean driving record.
Health & Safety: Demonstrated commitment to safe construction practices.
Deadline Flexibility: Able to work additional hours when required to meet tender deadlines.

PREFERRED

Experience: Approximately 5+ years of civil construction estimating experience.
Project Size: Experience estimating multi-million-dollar construction projects.
Project Diversity: Experience across civil, commercial, infrastructure, or industrial construction rather than one narrow project type.
Field Experience: Previous field, Foreman, Superintendent, or other hands-on civil construction experience.
Education: Civil Engineering, Construction Management, Engineering Technology, trade, or related education.
Software: Experience with SAGE Estimating, Procore, MS Project, and Microsoft Office.
Contracts: Experience with MMCD and CCDC contracts and identifying contractual risks and opportunities.
Delivery Models: Experience with lump-sum, unit-price, design-build, GMP, and cost-plus delivery models.
Certification: Gold Seal Estimator certification.

What We’re Looking For

Strong attention to detail and analytical ability.
Organized and able to manage multiple tenders and deadlines.
Able to document and organize complex project information accurately.
Self-motivated and accountable for assigned estimates and timelines.
Comfortable working across different types of construction rather than one narrow scope.
Able to communicate effectively with Operations, clients, consultants, subcontractors, and suppliers.

Compensation & Benefits

Salary: $100,000 - $140,000, based on experience and capability.
Comprehensive extended health, dental, life, and LTD benefits.
RRSP matching.
Paid vacation and sick time.
Performance-based bonus opportunities.
