🏗️ Structural / Miscellaneous Steel Estimator
📍 Dearborn Heights, MI
💼 Permanent | Nationwide Industrial Projects
This isn't a steady-state contractor.
This is a nationally recognised industrial general contractor that began as a small, entrepreneurial operation in the late 1970s and has grown into one of the most established employee-focused builders in the U.S.
Today, they operate with a 500+ in-house skilled trades workforce, offering self-perform steel fabrication and erection, and delivering complex projects across manufacturing, automotive, power, and heavy industrial sectors nationwide.
If you're a high-performing Structural Steel Estimator who can independently lead bids, build competitive strategies, and influence project wins - this is the kind of platform where your impact is visible and valued.
🎯 The Role
You'll take ownership of hard bids and negotiated proposals across manufacturing, power, and energy projects.
This is not a "bid support" position.
You will lead estimates, influence strategy, and directly impact project wins.
Key Responsibilities:
- Review drawings and specifications to define full project scope
- Attend and contribute to pre-bid meetings
- Prepare detailed, accurate cost estimates
- Solicit and level subcontractor and supplier pricing
- Develop best-value solutions balancing cost, engineering, and quality
- Clearly define bid inclusions, exclusions, and clarifications
- Support operations teams on awarded projects (including change orders)
- Contribute to conceptual budgeting and professional proposal development
👷 What They're Looking For
- 7+ years of structural / miscellaneous steel estimating experience
- Strong background in industrial, manufacturing, power, or energy sectors
- Deep understanding of conceptual estimating and cost control
- Proficiency in Microsoft Office & scheduling tools
You'll thrive here if you're analytical, ethical, commercially sharp, and genuinely enjoy collaborating with operations and clients.
