POSITION OVERVIEW
AAA Landscape is seeking a Landscape Estimator to join our Construction Division. This position will prepare accurate and competitive estimates for commercial landscape and irrigation construction projects throughout Arizona.
The successful candidate will have experience in landscape construction, irrigation, estimating, or a related field; be able to read and interpret construction plans and specifications; and have a strong desire to develop their estimating knowledge.
AAA Landscape utilizes established estimating systems together with AI-assisted takeoff technology. The successful candidate must be comfortable learning and using new technology while understanding that all technology-generated quantities and information must be reviewed and validated for accuracy.
This is an estimating position and is not a landscape design or sales role.
WHY JOIN AAA LANDSCAPE?
AAA Landscape has been building and maintaining Arizona landscapes for more than 50 years. Today, we are an approximately $65 million commercial landscape contractor with nearly 700 employees and operations in Phoenix and Tucson.
Our Construction Division works with leading General Contractors, developers, municipalities, and other clients on major commercial projects throughout Arizona, including healthcare, data centers, infrastructure, master-planned communities, and other complex construction projects.
We continue to invest in technology, people, and processes to improve how we estimate and deliver our work. This position provides an opportunity to develop your estimating career, work on challenging commercial projects, and learn from an experienced construction and estimating team.

- Develop project estimates incorporating labor, materials, equipment, subcontractors, production rates, and other project costs.
- Solicit pricing from suppliers, vendors, and subcontractors.
- Review supplier and subcontractor quotations for completeness and compliance with project requirements.
- Prepare proposal inclusions, exclusions, clarifications, alternates, and other required bid information.
- Maintain bid schedules and ensure assigned estimates and proposals are completed by required deadlines.
- Participate in estimate reviews with Construction leadership before bid submission.
- Maintain organized bid documents, pricing information, supplier quotations, and estimating records.
- Assist with project turnover to Project Management and Purchasing following award.
- Assist with maintaining estimating assemblies, production rates, material pricing, historical cost information, and estimating procedures.
- Continue developing knowledge of landscape and irrigation construction methods, materials, labor requirements, equipment, and Arizona construction practices.
- Participate in evaluating and adopting new estimating technology and processes that improve accuracy and efficiency.
WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR
- Experience in commercial landscape or irrigation estimating, landscape construction, project coordination, or a related construction field preferred.
- Understanding of commercial landscape and irrigation construction methods.
- Ability to read and interpret landscape, irrigation, civil, and related construction plans and specifications.
- Knowledge of Arizona plant materials, landscape materials, irrigation systems, and regional construction practices is preferred.
- Understanding of quantity takeoff, labor, materials, equipment, and basic construction estimating principles.
- Comfortable learning and using AI-assisted estimating, digital takeoff, and other construction technology.
- Ability and willingness to verify technology-generated information rather than relying solely on automated results.
- Strong computer skills, including Microsoft Excel and Outlook.
- Experience with Sage/Timberline, On-Screen Takeoff, or comparable estimating and takeoff platforms is beneficial.
- Strong mathematical and analytical skills.
- Excellent organization and attention to detail.

- Valid driver's license and acceptable driving record when driving is required for the position.
WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE
A successful Estimator at AAA Landscape understands that estimating is more than completing a takeoff. You learn to understand the entire project, identify scope and potential risk, ask questions when information is unclear, and produce an estimate our Construction team can successfully build.
You are comfortable using technology to become faster and more efficient, but you understand that technology does not replace construction knowledge, attention to detail, or professional judgment.
WHAT WE OFFER
- Competitive compensation
- Medical, dental, and vision benefits
- 401(k) retirement plan
- Paid time off
- Professional development and continuing education opportunities
- Modern estimating and AI-assisted takeoff technology
