ROLE AND RESPONSIBILITIES

We are seeking an MEP Estimator to join our team supporting our Rochester operations.

• Analyze drawings, specifications, and project requirements to develop accurate budgets
• Collaborate with internal teams and external partners to support bid strategy
• Participate in multi-office estimating efforts as needed
• Mentor and support junior estimators

BASIC QUALIFICATIONS

• 2+ years of pure estimating experience within commercial MEP environments
• Strong understanding of mechanical systems (sheet metal, piping, plumbing)
• Experience working on projects ranging from several million to $100M
• Background in a commercial mechanical contractor environment (preferred over GC estimating)
• Ability to work collaboratively across teams and offices
• Strong attention to detail and ownership mindset
