Estimator - Commercial Construction

Location: Brighton, Michigan

Salary Range: $95,000-$115,000 (conceptual estimating experience is required for the higher end of the range)

What You’ll Do

• Build accurate, well-supported budgets through the full preconstruction cycle - early concept through full construction documents.
• Carry budgets through design development and help keep cost decisions aligned as plans evolve.
• Partner with the project team, design partners, and trade contractors to validate scope, pricing, assumptions, and risk.
• Write clear scopes, solicit bids, and level subcontractor proposals for completeness and coverage.
• Identify gaps, inconsistencies, and exposures in drawings and specs before they become costly problems.
• Provide value options and cost-saving ideas that protect intent while improving efficiency.
• Support feasibility efforts and early budgeting that help teams make smart go/no-go decisions.
• Use Excel and Microsoft Project to build organized estimate backup, precon schedules, and clean handoff documentation.

What You Bring

• 3-5+ years of commercial estimating experience with a GC.
• Experience carrying estimates through multiple phases (concept, SD/DD, CDs).
• Strong knowledge of means and methods and how scope translates to real cost.
• Advanced Excel skills and comfort working in Microsoft Project
• A problem-solver mindset - you don’t guess, you verify.

What You’ll Gain

• Ownership in preconstruction - not just takeoffs, but real influence on outcomes.
• Employer-sponsored health insurance, plus a car allowance and phone allowance (role-dependent).
• Small team with direct access to the owner - questions get answered quickly and decisions don’t get stuck in layers.
• A manageable project load - typically one job at a time, occasionally two if one is smaller.
• Flexible vacation - take time when you need it, plan ahead, and keep commitments covered.
• Opportunities to work on in-house development projects where the builder is also the owner - clearer priorities and faster decisions.
• Low-bureaucracy environment - we focus on the admin that helps us build well and keep the rest simple.
• A team environment that values clarity, documentation, and thoughtful planning.
• A role that strengthens conceptual estimating skills and market awareness over time.
