$161.5k - $204k per yearMatchBox
- Location: Delta, British Columbia
- Type: Direct Hire
- Job #14137
- Salary: CA$170,000 Per Hour
MatchBox Consulting Group is working with an established civil contractor looking for an experienced estimator to handle bids across earthworks, underground utilities and ground improvement.
Projects typically range from $250K to $10M+ .
This is a small team, and you will be the main estimator. You need to be comfortable working through a bid independently, asking the right questions and dealing directly with ownership, suppliers, subcontractors and the field team.
The Role
You will manage estimates from initial review through final submission.
That includes reviewing drawings and specifications, completing takeoffs, building pricing and checking the scope against how the work will actually be completed in the field.
This role will suit someone who understands crews, equipment, production rates, access, sequencing and site conditions—not just the numbers on the bid sheet.
What You’ll Do
Complete takeoffs and prepare estimates
Price labour, equipment, materials and subcontracted work
Review drawings, specifications and tender requirements
Identify scope gaps, risks and constructability issues
Request and compare supplier and subcontractor pricing
Work with ownership on bid strategy
Manage several tenders and deadlines at once
Track upcoming opportunities through BuildConnect and other sources
Maintain estimating records and past pricing
What They’re Looking For
3–8+ years in civil estimating or a related field role
Experience with earthworks, underground utilities or ground improvement
Strong takeoff and quantity skills
A practical understanding of how civil work gets built
Comfortable working independently
Able to read drawings, specifications and bid documents
Experience with Bluebeam, Agtek, Timberline or similar software
Organized, accurate and reliable
Why Consider It
Established contractor with more than 30 years in the market
Direct access to the VP and President
Small team with straightforward decision-making
Opportunity to become the company’s go-to estimator
Larger projects coming into the pipeline
Competitive compensation based on experience
Closed over Christmas
