Estimator / Project Coordinator
About The Position
SFV Services is a family of commercial construction and facilities management solutions that provides an all-in-one resource to our retail, franchise, and hospitality clients nationwide. We are a cost-effective partner for every stage of growth by eliminating the need for clients to work with multiple General Contractors, reducing project overhead, cost overruns, and delays. Since our founding in 2006, we have completed over 1,000 projects with top retail and hospitality companies across the United States, providing them with everything from Site Selection and Evaluation Services, Design and Architectural Plans, all aspects of Construction Management, and aftercare through our Facilities Management. The Estimator / Project Coordinator Role Accurate estimates and tight project coordination are the foundation of every successful project. This role owns both sides of that equation. On the front end, you will define scope, perform takeoffs, solicit subcontractor pricing, and build the estimates that set the baseline for budget, schedule, and risk. Once a project is awarded, you will help keep it on track by coordinating subcontractors, tracking schedules and change orders, and maintaining clear communication between clients, field teams, and Ownership. A solid estimate paired with disciplined coordination is what prevents scope creep, budget overruns, and missed deadlines.
