Job description

Job Title: Civil / Site Work Estimator | Construction

Location: Greater Cleveland, OH (Flexible / Unlimited PTO)

Position Type: Full-Time, Direct Hire

Confidentiality: 100% strictly confidential inquiries welcomed

Not actively looking? That's fine. The best estimators rarely are.

If you're already producing solid bids and hitting your numbers, you probably have a secure seat at your current firm. But if you've ever wondered what it looks like to estimate without the typical construction red tape, under-resourced bid schedules, or rigid micromanagement, this is worth a quick look.

We are partnering with a premier heavy civil and site development contractor in Northeast Ohio looking to add a key estimator to their core team. This isn't a seat where you churn through endless speculative bids to hit an arbitrary quota; you will focus on high-impact civil, earthwork, and underground utility projects where your estimates genuinely shape project execution and profitability.

Why Consider This Move?

• Autonomy & Trust: Unlimited PTO backed by leadership that actually expects you to take time off and recharge.
• Streamlined Bidding: Robust pre-construction resources, modern tech stack (HCSS, AGTEK, Bluebeam), and dedicated support so you spend your time pricing work, not wrestling with broken spreadsheets.
• Regional Stability: A backlogged pipeline of private commercial, municipal, and heavy highway projects across Northeast Ohio with solid margins.
• A True Seat at the Table: Direct line of communication with field leadership, project executives, and owners-your voice directly impacts bid strategy and buyout.

What We're Looking For

• 3+ years up to Executive Level of dedicated experience estimating heavy civil, site development, or heavy highway work.
• Solid command of earthwork modeling and civil estimating tools (e.g., HCSS HeavyBid, B2W, AGTEK, or Bluebeam).
• Working knowledge of ODOT specifications and Northeast Ohio municipal utility standards.
• Background in civil engineering, construction management, or substantial field-to-office experience.
