About the Position

- Collaborate with project managers, engineers, and operations teams to understand existing systems.
- Review drawings, specifications, and site conditions to identify sequencing challenges.
- Develop pricing for phased construction and live-system work.
- Manage, mentor, and develop an estimator while helping build the estimating team as the company grows.
- Establish estimating best practices and contribute to the company's continued growth.
Requirements
- Strong background in process piping and equipment estimating, ideally within water and wastewater treatment.

- Experience pricing bypass, phased construction, and work on live/operational systems.
- Experience with both hard-bid and design-build project delivery.
- Strong understanding of construction sequencing and constructability.
- Prior experience leading or mentoring estimators, or demonstrated readiness to take on estimating team leadership.
- Strong communication and collaboration skills.

- Must be located in East Central Pennsylvania and able to visit the office approximately once per month.
Benefits
