Construction Estimator - Commercial Canopies & Awnings
Do you take pride in getting the details right?
We're looking for a Construction Estimator to join our growing commercial canopies and awnings team at CSC Awnings. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys studying plans, solving construction challenges, and building accurate estimates that help projects succeed before the first piece of material ever arrives on site.
Our estimators are craftsmen in their own right. Instead of working with tools in the field every day, they build projects on paper first. They measure, analyze, verify, and think through every detail to ensure our customers receive a quality product and our field teams have what they need to succeed.
If you enjoy construction, appreciate precision, and take ownership of your work, we'd like to meet you.
What You'll Do
- Review blueprints, drawings, specifications, and bid documents
- Perform material takeoffs and quantity surveys
- Develop accurate labor, material, equipment, and subcontractor pricing
- Work directly with suppliers and manufacturers to obtain quotes
- Identify project risks, challenges, and opportunities before construction begins
- Prepare professional proposals and budgets
- Participate in project handoff meetings with operations teams
- Occasionally visit jobsites to better understand installation methods and project conditions
- Continue learning the products, systems, and installation methods used in commercial canopies and awnings
What Makes Someone Successful Here
You may be a fit if you:
- Notice details others miss
- Take personal pride in producing accurate work
- Enjoy solving technical problems
- Like construction and understanding how things are built
- Are organized and dependable
- Follow through on commitment
- Learn quickly and ask thoughtful questions
- Prefer doing the job right over doing it fast
Preferred Background
- Construction estimating experience preferred
- Experience with commercial awnings, canopies, roofing, architectural metals, glazing, or related trades is a plus
- Ability to read construction plans and specifications
- Strong math and analytical skills
- Proficiency with Microsoft Office and estimating/takeoff software
- Valid driver's license
- Desire to be in office - this is NOT a remote position
What We Offer
- Competitive pay based on experience
- Health, dental, and vision benefits
- 401(k) with company match
- Paid holidays and vacation
- Company-provided technology and tools
- Long-term career growth opportunities
- Stable company with a reputation for quality workmanship
Our Culture
We value people who are hardworking, humble, accountable, and committed to continuous improvement. We believe quality work starts with quality people.
We're not looking for someone who simply wants a job.
We're looking for someone who enjoys mastering their craft.
