About The Position

Sheldon Builders is seeking an experienced residential construction professional who understands both the office and field sides of building. The ideal candidate has real-world residential construction experience, ideally including hands-on carpentry or trade experience, and can use that knowledge to create accurate estimates, support owner selections, review plans, identify missing scope, and help prepare projects for successful execution. This role is responsible for developing cost estimates, supporting pre-construction and owner selections, coordinating project details, and preparing clear handoff packages for the production team. The right person will be able to look at drawings and understand not only what is shown, but also what is missing. This person should be comfortable working with clients, architects, designers, subcontractors, and internal team members to define scope, clarify expectations, support budgets, and keep projects moving forward. This is a strong fit for someone with deep residential construction knowledge who enjoys estimating, planning, client communication, and occasionally stepping into project management support for smaller projects or to assist the production team when needed.
