Job description

SENIOR PROJECT MANAGER / ESTIMATOR

Full-Time • Phoenix, AZ (Maricopa County) • $50,000–$60,000 Base + Uncapped Commission

Who We Are

KRB Development has been building across the Phoenix metro for over 20 years. We specialize in commercial design-build, tenant improvements, and ground-up construction — projects ranging from $200,000 to $4,000,000+. We operate BES Electric in-house, giving our team a genuine competitive edge in pricing, scheduling, and delivery.

We run a tight, transparent operation: daily field documentation through CompanyCam, live scheduling, and full project management via JobTread. We're growing — and we want the right person to grow with us.

The Opportunity

This is not a desk job. We're looking for a senior professional who brings real Phoenix-market relationships, builds estimates that win, manages projects from award through closeout, and takes full ownership of their work.

The commission structure is intentionally aggressive. We want this person to earn well above their base. If you have the relationships and the skill, this role is built for you to make serious money.

Compensation & Benefits

• Base Salary: $50,000 – $60,000 (negotiable based on experience and book of business)
• Uncapped Commission on all work you originate and close — realistic total comp of $100,000–$250,000+
• Full‑time, direct hire with immediate start
• Work alongside ownership — real authority, real accountability, real opportunity

What You'll Do

Business Development

• Leverage your existing Phoenix‑market network brokers, property managers, architects, owners — to generate new project opportunities
• Represent KRB at industry events, pre‑bid walks, and client meetings
• Build and maintain long‑term relationships with repeat clients and referral sources
• Collaborate directly with ownership on pipeline strategy and target markets

Estimating

• Perform complete quantity takeoffs and cost estimates for commercial TI, ground‑up, and residential projects
• Solicit, level, and award subcontractor bids across all applicable trades
• Coordinate with BES Electric (in‑house) for integrated electrical scope and pricing
• Prepare polished, competitive bid packages and proposals through JobTread
• Maintain current labor rates, material pricing, and subcontractor relationships

Project Management

• Own your projects from pre‑construction through closeout — schedule, budget, subs, and client communication
• Track RFIs, submittals, change orders, and daily logs via JobTread and CompanyCam
• Conduct regular site visits and coordinate with KRB field superintendents
• Deliver on time, on budget, and to KRB's standard of quality and integrity

What We're Looking For

Required

• 10+ years of experience in commercial construction — estimating, project management, or both
• An established network of contacts in the Phoenix / Maricopa County commercial construction market
• Proven track record of developing client relationships and winning work
• Proficiency with construction estimating and PM software — JobTread experience strongly preferred
• Ability to read full construction document sets and manage multi‑trade scopes
• Strong written and verbal communication — you'll interface directly with clients and ownership
• Self‑directed, organized, and accountable — this role owns its desk

Preferred (Strong Plus)

• Electrical estimating experience — highly valued given our in‑house company BES Electric
• Existing relationships with Phoenix metro commercial real estate community
• Experience with CompanyCam for field documentation
• Design‑build project delivery background
