Description

A leading specialty building envelope contractor is seeking an experienced Construction Estimator to prepare accurate cost estimates and competitive bids for commercial and industrial projects featuring Insulated Metal Panel (IMP) systems. The ideal candidate brings hands-on IMP estimating experience and can independently own the estimating process, from drawing review and quantity takeoffs through final bid proposals.

This role supports work in the advanced manufacturing, mission-critical, and industrial construction markets. Candidates in Knoxville or East Tennessee are preferred; remote work or relocation may be considered for highly qualified applicants.

Key Responsibilities

• Prepare detailed estimates and competitive bids for commercial and industrial projects involving IMP systems.
• Review drawings, specifications, and bid documents to define scope, material requirements, and installation details.
• Perform detailed quantity takeoffs and calculate labor, material, equipment, and installation costs.
• Build comprehensive bid proposals outlining pricing, inclusions, exclusions, and assumptions.
• Identify scope gaps, cost risks, and project-specific requirements that could affect accuracy or profitability.
• Request and evaluate supplier quotes to validate material costs and keep pricing competitive.
• Coordinate with general contractors, suppliers, and internal teams to clarify requirements and resolve estimating questions.
• Maintain organized estimating records, cost breakdowns, and bid documentation while meeting deadlines.
• Review estimates for accuracy, completeness, and alignment with drawings and specifications.

Requirements

• 3–7 years of construction estimating experience, with 3–5 years of direct Insulated Metal Panel (IMP) estimating experience strongly preferred.
• Proven ability to independently prepare complete estimates, perform quantity takeoffs, and submit competitive bids.
• Experience with advanced manufacturing, mission-critical, or industrial construction projects preferred.
• Ability to read and interpret construction drawings, blueprints, technical specifications, and bid documents.
• Hands-on experience calculating labor, material, equipment, and installation costs for commercial or industrial projects.
• Familiarity with construction estimating software and Microsoft Excel or comparable tools.
• Strong analytical, mathematical, and organizational skills with excellent attention to detail.
• Please Note: candidates must demonstrate full ownership of the estimating process. Experience limited to project coordination, material ordering, or estimating assistance will not be a strong fit.

Benefits

• Salary: $75,000–$105,000 annually, depending on experience.
• Health insurance.
• Retirement plan options.
• Paid time off.
• Additional company-sponsored benefits.
