About The Position

We are hiring an experienced Electrical Estimator for a rapidly growing union electrical contractor in Staten Island. This is not a plug-and-play role — this is for someone who knows how to break down drawings, build accurate bids, and help win real work. You’ll be working directly with ownership, helping decide what gets bid, how it gets priced, and ultimately what projects hit the board. If you’ve been estimating and want more influence, more respect, and a seat at the table — this is it.

Ability to read and interpret full electrical plan sets independently
Strong analytical mindset with attention to detail
Organized, deadline-driven, and able to manage multiple bids
Strong communication and negotiation skills
Someone who takes ownership of their work and wants to win bids

Responsibilities

Analyze drawings, specs, and bid documents to build complete electrical estimates
Perform labor, material, and production cost analysis
