About Soluroc

Soluroc is a growing Canadian manufacturer providing wear solutions to mining and industrial customers across Ontario and Québec. Our Sudbury Integrated Solutions team prices the custom, capital, and project-based work that wins us our most demanding jobs - and we're adding a Project Estimator to the team.

About the Role

Reporting to the Solutions Team Lead, you'll own the estimates behind our most complex opportunities. This isn't routine catalogue quoting - it's non-routine, project-specific work where accuracy, margin protection, and sound technical interpretation decide whether we win profitable work.

You will:

• Prepare detailed cost estimates covering materials, labour, equipment, subcontracted services, and logistics
• Analyze drawings, specifications, and customer scopes to define what a project really requires
• Identify risks and build appropriate contingencies into every estimate
• Support bids and proposals with clear, professional cost breakdowns and documentation
• Collaborate with Solutions, Engineering, Operations, Procurement, and Finance to validate estimates and obtain vendor pricing
• Maintain our cost database and historical estimate records, track estimate accuracy and win rates
• Recommend improvements to our estimating tools, methods, and processes

What Success Looks Like

Estimates within ±5% of actual cost. 95%+ delivered on schedule. A cost database the whole team trusts. Proposals that help us win 30–40% of what we bid.

What We're Looking For

• Diploma or degree in Engineering, Construction Management, Business, or a related field
• 2–5 years of experience in estimating, costing, or a similar role - industrial or construction environment preferred
• Strong understanding of cost drivers in labour, materials, and subcontracted services
• Ability to read and interpret drawings, technical specifications, and customer requirements
• Proficiency with estimating software, ERP systems, and Excel
• Strong numerical, analytical, and problem-solving skills, and a collaborative working style
• Experience in mining, construction, or industrial services is an asset

What We Offer

• Competitive salary of $65,000 – $85,000, based on experience
• Comprehensive group benefits program
• Retirement savings plan
• Training on our estimating tools, technical documentation, and cost-modelling methods
• A well-established, growing company where your estimates directly shape the work we win
