An established and reputable ICI General Contractor based in the GTA is seeking a Senior Estimator to join their team.

The company specializes in Construction Management (CM) delivery and requires an individual who thrives in a client-facing role, offering value engineering and budgeting guidance from pre-construction through completion.
Key Responsibilities:
Lead the full-cycle estimating process from concept through to submission
Collaborate closely with the leadership team and project managers to develop budgets and cost strategies
Liaise with subcontractors and suppliers to gather pricing and ensure accurate takeoffs
Deliver proactive value engineering insights to benefit both the internal team and clients
Participate in client meetings, presentations, and provide ongoing support throughout project development
Maintain accurate and organized documentation for all bid submissions and costing

Proven track record delivering estimates for projects between $1M–$30M
Strong familiarity with Construction Management projects
Excellent communication skills and comfort engaging with clients directly
Highly organized, self-sufficient, and able to take full ownership of estimating duties
Proficiency in industry-standard estimating software
Why Join?
Opportunity to transition into a lead role under the mentorship of a retiring senior partner
Work in a collaborative and professional environment with long-standing clients
Competitive compensation and flexibility around start date – the right fit is more important than immediate availability
If you are a strong communicator who thrives in a collaborative, client-focused estimating role and are ready to take the next step into leadership, we’d love to hear from you.
Thank you for your interest in this job posting.
We look forward to hearing from you.
