Full Job Description

Role

Reporting to the Lead Estimator, the Senior Project Estimator is an experienced estimating professional responsible for developing comprehensive EPC (Engineering, Procurement, and Construction) proposals for high-voltage electrical projects. This role independently evaluates complex RFP packages, identifies cost and schedule risks, and prepares competitive estimates with minimal oversight. The Senior Estimator collaborates closely with internal stakeholders across engineering, procurement, construction, and project controls to ensure alignment on scope, pricing strategy, and execution planning. While not a supervisory position, this role contributes mentorship and technical guidance to junior estimators and plays a key role in proposal quality, cost accuracy, and pre-award strategy

Responsibilities

Independently evaluate RFP packages to determine project scope, commercial requirements, risk, and constructability.
Prepare detailed, multi-discipline EPC cost estimates for renewable, distribution, substation, generation, and industrial electrical projects.
Lead the development of full proposal packages, including:
- Execution plans
- Cost breakdowns and assumptions
- Project schedules using MS Project or Primavera
- Risk registers and mitigation strategies
- Optional pricing and alternate methodologies
- Environmental, Safety, Quality, and ITP Plans
- Executive summaries
Coordinate and conduct site visits to inform constructability reviews and field-level data gathering.
Review technical documents (e.g., drawings, DBMs, specs) and identify scope gaps or conflicts.
Engage and communicate with subcontractors, vendors, and consultants to secure and validate pricing inputs.
Maintain a record of all estimate basis throughout the development of a proposal.
Lead internal estimate reviews and provide detailed justifications and breakdowns to internal stakeholders.
Conduct final bid submission reviews with the appropriate internal signing authorities.
Participate in strategy development for complex proposals, including alternative methods, value engineering options, and cost-saving opportunities.
Provide peer reviews and mentor junior estimating staff through task collaboration and technical feedback.
Assist in the continuous improvement of estimating tools, templates, and standard practices.
Conduct formal estimate hand-off meetings with the Project Management team after contract award.
Assist with the preparation and submission of change orders and scope adjustments.
Participate in project close-out and post-mortem reviews to support continuous improvement.
Attend regular estimating team meetings to share updates, challenges, and lessons learned.
Submit accurate and timely administrative documentation, including daily timesheets.
Contribute to the maintenance of historical cost data and continuous improvement initiatives within the estimating team.

A reasonable estimate of the pay range is $110,000.000 - $160,000.00 USD at the time of this posting. Within the range, individual pay is determined by factors such as job-related skills, relevant experience, education and/or training.

Requirements

Qualifications

Post-secondary education in Electrical Engineering, Construction Management, or a related field is preferred.
Certification as a Journeyman Electrician or Power Systems Electrician is considered a strong asset.
Minimum of 7 years of experience in electrical estimating, ideally in the electric utility or EPC (Engineering, Procurement, and Construction) sectors.
Must have proven experience with renewables, distribution, and substation projects, including exposure to complex, multi-stakeholder proposals.
Advanced proficiency in interpreting engineering drawings, design packages, and construction specifications.
Strong knowledge of construction productivity, equipment capabilities, labor planning, and market rates.
Advanced experience with estimating software (e.g., Hard Dollar or equivalent).
Skilled in developing construction schedules using Microsoft Project and/or Primavera.
Proficient with Microsoft Office Suite, digital takeoff tools (Bluebeam), and document control platforms (e.g., SharePoint).
Able to independently perform full takeoffs, pricing validations, and proposal compilation.
Strong interpersonal skills with a high level of professional judgment.
Proven ability to collaborate across departments and communicate effectively with technical and non-technical stakeholders.
Comfortable engaging directly with subcontractors, vendors, and clients during the proposal phase.
Able to clearly articulate estimate assumptions, risk considerations, and commercial impacts to both technical and non-technical audiences.
Highly organized and detail-oriented, with the ability to manage multiple priorities and meet tight deadlines.
Self-driven, proactive, and capable of working independently while also functioning as part of a larger team.
