ATTN: Omaha Estimators We just partnered with a well-known general contractor in Omaha that’s a leader in historical renovations, multi-family, not-for-profits, and retail on their search for an Estimator. We're excited to partner with this company, as we share similar values - they believe in contributing to their community, are family-oriented, and don't have a bunch of hoops to jump through like big companies often do. As their next Estimator, you'll love the potential for future ownership, the fact that 90% of their projects are negotiated, and that they have a history of long-term clients. A few more facts about the company: 🔹$75M in revenue this year 🔹$150M backlog 🔹45 employees 🔹Projects range from $100k - $35M (sweet spot is $10M)   Compensation/benefits:   🔹Up to $125K + bonus 🔹$700/month vehicle allowance 🔹60% paid medical, 100% paid dental & vision + HSA plan 🔹401K with 3% match (whether you contribute or not)   If you're looking to join a smaller team doing big things in Omaha and throughout the Midwest, send me a DM. #groundupconstructionrecruiting #omaha #estimator

Smell that? What? That's an opportunity for a Senior Estimator to do something a bit different with their lives. Like what? Like getting involved in establishing a brand new division within an already, hugely successful company. This means, although you'll have the SE job title in reality you will get involved in Tender Strategy, Business Development & General Pre Construction Management. Over time, with the more success of this division, the more defined the job titles will be and therefore offering a clear opportunity into the elusive Estimating Management/PreConstruction Management. All hail, the holy graill! The role will be a National one and the target for the business is very modest, meaning (more or less) guaranteed success. More or less, means - who the heck knows? But it reads well in an advert okay? You'll work in a youthful team, energized to hit targets and grow the division. There is a strong culture in this company and it's not all about big revenues and minimal margin. It's about good business , organic growth and working in partnership with their clients. On offer includes a strong base salary (circa $200K + Super) and opportunity to work from home 2-3 days per week. You can pick what software you want to use Cubit/CostX. Just nothing else. This is a role where the Senior Estimator will essentially work in harmony with the GM. And work on strategy & executing plans that deliver. So if that flicks your switch...DM me with the words "LOVE IT" 😂 All jokes aside, cracking job for an ambitious Estimator with a love for the industry! Interested, let me know. #Estimator #NewJob #Construction #Brisbane #Australia

Estimators are leaving the construction industry in droves. And we don't have the talent to replace them. 👉 Retirement 👉 Burn out 👉 Lack of growth opportunities Are just a few reasons why Estimators are leaving the construction industry. At a critical time when companies are losing money at an unprecedented level. A highly talented Estimator, who knows the market, the sub contractors and has the ability to price risk and build strong relationships with suppliers Are going to be in high demand for a very long time. BUT employers need to find a way to incentivize estimators to stay. 📌 Job Creation (Developing sector specialists such as Chief Estimator of X Sector or Lead Estimator of X sector) the Estimating Manager position allows only 1 opportunity for your team to get promoted. It's not like a Construction Manager where a business can have as many as they need. Once an estimator sits at SE level for too long, it's likely they will leave for an EM role elsewhere. 📌 True Flexibility needs to be presented to Estimators. Quite often the most talented estimators prefer working alone and working from home a few days a week is a simple but effective way of providing some flexibility to your team. 📌 Present awards and recognition to Estimators as well as the Project Delivery team. Allow the Estimator to cut the red tape or chuck a shovel into the ground every now and again. 📌 Don't reject an Estimator because they don't have a specific software experience. I.e. if they have 5 years experience using Cubit, don't reject them because they don't have CostX. They could be an incredible Estimator but just need exposure to a specific software. Develop Software specialists in your team, create easy on boarding and training for them to hit the ground running. What do you think? What can we do to attract and retain more estimators to the construction sector? 🤔 #Estimating #CostPlanning #Construction #ProofIsInTheProgress
