- Identifying potential project risks, challenges, and cost impacts.
- Obtaining and evaluating pricing from suppliers, vendors, and subcontractors to ensure competitive submissions.
- Working closely with the design team to ensure proposed solutions meet applicable fire alarm codes, standards, and regulations.
- Supporting project managers throughout the project life-cycle with cost tracking, budgeting, and change order management.
- Staying current with industry developments, emerging technologies, and changes to fire alarm codes and standards.

- At least 1–2 years of experience in fire alarm system estimating or a related electrical estimating role.
- Strong knowledge of fire alarm systems, components, and applicable industry standards, including NFPA and CAN/ULC requirements.
- The ability to interpret technical drawings, specifications, and contract documents.
- Strong analytical, organizational, and problem-solving skills.
- Experience using estimating software such as ProEst or similar platforms is considered an asset.
- Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to work effectively with internal teams, clients, suppliers, and subcontractors.
- A high level of attention to detail and commitment to estimate accuracy.
- A valid Ontario G2 or G Driver’s Licence and the ability to travel occasionally throughout the GTA for site visits.
- A desire to build a long-term career within a growing organization.
- Relevant certifications such as CET or CFAA are considered an asset but are not required.
What you'll get in return
In return, you will join a company that genuinely values its employees and invests in their long-term success. The role offers a competitive salary in the range of $60,000–$70,000, negotiation based on experience, qualifications, and industry expertise.

This role is based 100% in office/onsite and requires you to have access to your own vehicle (mileage covered for any site visits).
