  • Perform quantity takeoffs for landscape, hardscape, irrigation, drainage, site furnishings, planting, seeding, sod, mulch, soil, and related work.
  • Assist with labor, material, equipment, subcontractor, and vendor pricing for bid-build landscape construction projects.
  • Solicit, track, and follow up on supplier, vendor, and subcontractor quotes to ensure complete bid coverage.
  • Compare proposals for scope completeness, exclusions, pricing accuracy, and compliance with project requirements.
  • Prepare bid worksheets, estimate summaries, proposals, alternates, unit prices, and clarifications as directed by senior estimating staff.
  • Maintain organized bid files, including drawings, specifications, addenda, quotes, takeoffs, and final submissions.
  • Attend pre-bid meetings, site walks, and internal bid reviews as needed.
  • Coordinate with project managers and operations teams to support a smooth project hand off after award.
  • Track bid results, update estimating databases, and maintain historical cost information.
  • Identify potential risks, scope gaps, schedule concerns, access constraints, and constructability issues during the estimating process.
  • Support continuous improvement of estimating templates, production rates, vendor lists, and bid processes.
 Qualifications
  • Associate or bachelor’s degree in construction management, landscape architecture, horticulture, civil engineering, business, or a related field preferred.
  • 1–2 years of experience in estimating, construction, landscaping, civil site work, or a related field preferred.
  • Ability to read and interpret construction drawings, specifications, details, and bid documents.
  • Strong mathematical, organizational, analytical, and problem-solving skills.
  • Proficiency with Microsoft Excel and general computer applications required.
  • Experience with takeoff or estimating software such as Bluebeam, PlanSwift, ProEst, B2W, HCSS, On Screen Takeoff, Aspire, or similar platforms is a plus.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to work professionally with vendors, subcontractors, clients, and internal teams.
  • Strong attention to detail and ability to manage multiple bids with competing deadlines.
  • Valid driver’s license and ability to attend site visits and pre-bid meetings as needed.
 Preferred Characteristics

  • Able to work independently while collaborating with senior estimators and project teams.
  • Calm and focused under bid deadlines.
