Lead Estimator
Synectics Inc.
Senior/Lead Commercial Electrical Estimator
About The Opportunity
- We are seeking an experienced Senior/Lead Commercial Electrical Estimator with 10+ years of commercial electrical construction experience and a strong background in commercial tenant improvement (TI) projects.
- This is an opportunity for an experienced estimator who wants to take ownership of the estimating function-not simply follow an existing process.
- You will have the opportunity to build and improve estimating workflows, leverage technology and AI, work closely with customers and project teams, and help establish a stronger estimating operation.
Key Responsibilities
- Lead and own the estimating process for commercial electrical projects.
- Prepare accurate estimates, bids, and proposals for commercial tenant improvement and landlord improvement projects.
- Review drawings, specifications, scopes of work, and project requirements.
- Identify project risks, gaps, and potential cost issues early and communicate them effectively.
- Work closely with customers, project managers, field teams, and senior leadership.
- Develop and improve estimating processes, tools, databases, and workflows.
- Evaluate and implement estimating software, technology, and AI tools to improve accuracy and efficiency.
- Track projects through completion and compare estimated costs against actual project performance.
- Use historical project data to improve future estimates and project outcomes.
- Help establish estimating best practices and improve team performance.
- Provide guidance and mentorship to less-experienced team members.
- Collaborate closely with project management and field operations to ensure alignment from estimate through completion.
Qualifications
- 10+ years of experience in commercial electrical construction.
- Strong experience with commercial tenant improvement projects.
- Proven experience estimating commercial electrical projects.
- Strong understanding of electrical drawings, specifications, materials, labor, and project costs.
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
- Strong customer-facing and relationship-building abilities.
- Ability to identify risks and communicate them proactively.
- Strong analytical, organizational, and problem-solving skills.
- Experience with estimating software and related technology.
- Interest in using technology, automation, and AI to improve estimating processes.
- Ability to work independently and take ownership of processes and outcomes.
- Leadership mindset with the ability to mentor and develop others.
