About The Position

While working as a Senior Estimator you will be tasked with performing comprehensive take-offs for ADA systems, custom-fabricated exterior wayfinding, and integrated building elements. Navigating a 200-page set of architectural plans to find every HVAC duct, electrical run, or square foot of flooring. You aren’t just looking at a sign schedule. You are a detective. We are a premier commercial signage firm tackling high-stakes projects—hospitals, fire stations, luxury high-rises, stadiums and universities. We don’t just make "signs"; we build the custom architectural elements that define a building’s identity.

Requirements

  • Bachelor's degree preferred
  • 3+ years’ experience as an estimator in a commercial trade (HVAC, Electrical, Plumbing, Flooring, Carpentry, Framing, or Landscaping).
  • A Blueprint Specialist: You speak "Architectural Plan" fluently. You know how to cross-reference sheets to ensure nothing is missed.
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Office (especially Excel)
  • Proficiency in Bluebeam/PlanSwift/On-Center
  • Strong organizational skills with the ability to manage multiple deadlines simultaneously.
  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills
  • Detail-oriented, process-driven, and able to work collaboratively in a fast-paced environment: you understand that in a 500-unit apartment building, missing one ADA sign per door is a massive oversight.
