Job description

Looking for a career, not just another job?

Speedwell Construction is seeking a motivated, energetic individual who wants to build a career in commercial construction estimating. You don't need years of estimating experience—we're looking for someone with a strong work ethic, excellent computer skills, excitement about technology, and the determination to learn from one of the best in the industry.

You'll work side-by-side with our seasoned estimator, gaining hands-on experience preparing competitive bids for commercial construction projects while developing the skills needed to become a successful estimator.

What You'll Do

  • Contact subcontractors and suppliers to obtain pricing
  • Build relationships with trade partners
  • Assist with preparing bids and proposals
  • Organize bid documents and project information
  • Learn how to interpret plans and specifications
  • Support pre-bid meetings and estimating activities
  • Develop the skills to become a commercial construction estimator

We're Looking for Someone Who

  • Isn't afraid to pick up the phone—and will make dozens of calls if that's what it takes
  • Has strong computer and organizational skills
  • Is naturally curious and enjoys learning and technology
  • Takes initiative instead of waiting to be told what to do
  • Is persistent and enjoys solving problems
  • Communicates professionally with customers and trade partners
  • Wants a long-term career, not just a paycheck

Construction Experience?

Construction experience is a plus but not required. If you have the right attitude, work ethic, and desire to learn, we'll teach you the estimating side of the business.

Why Speedwell?

At Speedwell Construction, our people are our greatest asset. Guided by our core values of Diligence, Respect, Humility, and a Sense of Urgency, we invest in developing our employees and creating opportunities for long-term career growth.

If you're a go-getter who enjoys building relationships, learning new skills, and making things happen, we'd like to talk with you.

Apply today and start building your future with Speedwell Construction.
