Original job description

Estimator | Remote | 6-Week Contract Position Overview We are seeking an experienced Estimator for a fully remote, 6-week contract assignment supporting large-scale, complex construction projects.This position is focused on true cost planning and measurement-based estimating, rather than bid-level estimating. The Estimator will perform detailed quantity take-offs and develop estimates throughout the full design lifecycle, from early conceptual and schematic phases through construction documents.The ideal candidate has 5+ years of hands-on construction estimating experience within a cost consultancy, preconstruction team, or general contractor environment and is comfortable independently developing trade-level estimates from drawings and specifications.

Key Responsibilities

Perform detailed quantity take-offs and measurement-based estimating across multiple construction trades and building systems.
Develop conceptual, schematic, design development, and construction document estimates.
Prepare detailed cost plans, project budgets, and feasibility estimates for large-scale construction projects.
Review drawings, specifications, and design documents to determine quantities, pricing, assumptions, and potential cost risks.
Independently develop trade-level estimates and validate pricing throughout each stage of design.
Incorporate construction methods, constructability, labor/material costs, escalation, and other market factors into estimates.
Provide value engineering and cost-saving alternatives while maintaining overall project intent and quality.
Collaborate remotely with design teams, clients, and project stakeholders to align scope and budget.
Support benchmarking, cost database development, and historical cost analysis.
Develop and maintain Excel-based cost models and estimating documentation.
Prepare cost reports and supporting information for client presentations and project team discussions.

Qualifications

5+ years of hands-on construction estimating experience.
Strong background in commercial construction and large-scale projects.
Demonstrated experience performing detailed quantity take-offs and building estimates directly from drawings and specifications.
Experience estimating across the full design lifecycle, including conceptual, schematic, design development, construction documents, and preconstruction.
Experience with multiple trades and scopes, including civil, architectural, facade/exterior, and roofing.
Strong understanding of construction methods, trade-specific cost drivers, labor/material pricing, and constructability.
Previous experience within a cost consultancy, general contractor, or major preconstruction team.
Proficiency with CostX, Bluebeam, or similar digital take-off/estimating software.
Advanced Excel skills with experience developing and maintaining cost models.
Ability to independently manage estimates and deliver accurate work within a short project timeline.
Strong written and verbal communication skills for explaining estimate methodology, assumptions, allowances, and scope gaps.

Preferred Qualifications

Experience with NYC commercial construction projects and regional market pricing.
background supporting high-profile, large-scale commercial or urban construction projects.
Experience working from an owner's or cost consultant's perspective.
International cost consultancy experience.
MRICS qualification or related quantity surveying/cost management background is a plus.

Contract Details

Contract Length: 6 weeks
Work Arrangement: Fully Remote
Position Type: Contract
Candidates must be comfortable working independently in a remote environment and immediately contributing to active estimating and cost-planning efforts.
