Wilmington, Delaware, Let’s be honest – Pre-Construction and estimating aren’t for the faint of heart. But you? You thrive in it. You’re calm under pressure, clear in your communication, and (somehow) make bid day feel like a breeze. You understand the importance of clean takeoffs, smart assumptions, and strong architect and trade contractor relationships – and you know how to bring all three together for success.
As a Senior Estimator at EDiS, you’ll take the lead on high-value pursuits. You’ll work closely with operations and preconstruction partners to deliver strategic pricing, well-documented assumptions, and clearly communicated value. From conceptual budgets to final estimates to GMPs and everything in between, your work will be critical in helping clients make informed decisions.
If you’ve ever caught yourself explaining escalation to your friends for fun – and they get it? Yeah, we definitely want to talk to you.
Your priorities will be:
Lead with Precision: Own the estimating process for high-impact projects—civil to MEP, conceptual to final bid.
Strategic Partner: Collaborate with operations to evaluate design documents, flag gaps and risks, and guide smart decisions.
Own the Process: Whether it’s during Pre-Construction for a CM or Design-Build job, or driving pre-bid efforts during a GC bid, it’s yours – and you know what to do with it.
Bid Day Boss: Deliver polished bid tabs, clean proposals, and lead selection + buyout like a pro.
Guide and Mentor: Support the development of junior estimators by offering direction, feedback, and a little “I’ve been there” wisdom.
Relationship Builder: Grow and maintain connections across our architect and trade contractor network – especially the ones who ask all their questions at the same time, in a single email.
Day to Day you will:
Perform detailed takeoffs and budget analyses across all major trade packages.
Present estimates with confidence—clear, complete, and aligned with client goals.
Analyze trends in pricing, project delivery, and market movement. We know that’s a lot right now.
Help us build a smarter estimating process by contributing ideas, tools, and improvements.
Lead by example – working ethically, collaboratively, and always with our clients’ best interests at heart!
Your Skills Look Like:
Master of the Math: If there were a game show testing knowledge of construction costs, market variables, and scope alignment? You’d be that guy who won Jeopardy for like 6 months straight.
Tech-Confident : You speak Excel, QTO, Bluebeam, BIM, Revit, and Microsoft Project to the point you’re often mistaken for tech support.
Big Picture Thinker : Able to zoom out and assess strategy, then zoom back in and knock out the details.
Calm Under Pressure : Bid day, tight deadlines, last-minute scope shifts? You’ve so got this.
Team-First Leader : You know a senior level position means managing people and projects well – not just tasks.
Your Experience Looks Like:
Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Construction Management, or a related field.
7+ years of estimating experience in commercial construction, including projects over $10M.
Proven background with CM, CM-at-Risk, GC, and Design-Build delivery methods.
Familiarity across sectors: commercial office, healthcare, K-12, higher ed, and pre-engineered.
Experience mentoring or managing individuals or small teams.
Bonus points for ASPE certification or active involvement!
