Position Overview:

As a Senior Concrete Estimator, you will play a pivotal role in driving the success of multi-story cast-in-place concrete projects. You will be responsible for conducting detailed quantity take-offs, developing preliminary pricing, and managing cost estimation for complex structures across California. This role requires deep expertise in self-performed concrete estimation, including advanced understanding of production rates, formwork systems, and a variety of estimation tools.

Key Responsibilities:

• Perform precise quantity take-offs for cast-in-place concrete elements, focusing on multi-story structures.
• Develop preliminary pricing and budgets based on quantity data, materials, and historical production rates.
• Analyze and apply man-hour production rates accurately for various formwork systems, placing, and finishing tasks to ensure reliable estimates.
• Collaborate closely with project managers, engineers, and clients to provide accurate estimates that align with project goals.
• Utilize software tools, including Excel, WinEst, Cost-OS, Timberline Precision Estimating, and PlanSwift/On-Screen Takeoff, to support all estimating functions.
• Support project teams with Model-Based Estimating (MBE), using 3D models and digital tools to enhance accuracy and visualize project scope.
• Adjust estimates based on changing project parameters, offering insights and suggestions to optimize project costs.

Background Profile:

• Minimum of 10 years of experience estimating self-performed, multi-story cast-in-place concrete structures in California.
• Expertise in man-hour production rates for a range of formwork systems, as well as placing and finishing tasks, based on historical project data.
• Proficiency in Excel, WinEst, Cost-OS, Timberline Precision Estimating, and PlanSwift/On-Screen Takeoff.
• Familiarity with Model-Based Estimating is preferred.
• Strong analytical, organizational, and communication skills, with the ability to work well in a collaborative team environment.
