We’ve partnered with a well-established and reputable contractor based in Toronto, specializing in high-quality tile installation across both residential and commercial projects. Known for strong craftsmanship, reliability, and long-standing client relationships, the organization continues to grow across the Greater Toronto Area. This is an excellent opportunity to join a close-knit and collaborative team with a strong reputation in the market.

Your new role

As an Estimator, you will play a key role in the pre-construction phase, responsible for preparing accurate cost estimates and supporting tender submissions. Working closely with company leadership and external stakeholders, you will help ensure that all project pricing is competitive, detailed, and aligned with client expectations.

You will perform detailed quantity take-offs from drawings and specifications, review tender documents to fully understand project scope, and prepare comprehensive bid submissions. You’ll liaise directly with builders, general contractors, and clients throughout the tendering process, ensuring clear communication and strong relationship management.

In addition, you will identify and pursue new tender opportunities, maintain organized records of estimates and bid outcomes, and ensure all submissions are aligned with project timelines, budgets, and requirements. This role offers strong exposure to both technical estimating and business development activities within a growing contractor.

To be successful in this role, you will bring previous experience in construction estimating or a related position, ideally within finishing trades or similar scopes of work. You will have a strong ability to interpret architectural drawings, specifications, and tender documents, along with a solid understanding of construction methods, materials, and costing.

You’ll demonstrate strong attention to detail and analytical skills, with the ability to produce accurate and competitive estimates in a fast-paced environment. Effective communication and relationship-building skills are key, as you will be working closely with both internal teams and external clients.

Proficiency in Microsoft Excel is essential, and experience with estimating software will be considered an asset. You will also be organized, proactive, and able to manage multiple tenders and deadlines effectively.

What you’ll get in return

In return, you’ll be offered a competitive salary along with a discretionary annual bonus. The position also includes a comprehensive benefits package after a three-month probation period, along with two weeks’ vacation and paid sick days annually.
