Job description

Director of Estimating
Location: Stamford, CT (In-Person Position)
Building and Land Technology (BLT) is seeking an experienced and strategic Director of Estimating to lead and actively participate in all estimating efforts for complex mid- to high-rise residential and commercial office developments in Stamford, CT. This hands-on leadership role will oversee estimating operations while directly preparing, reviewing, and managing project estimates, budgets, subcontractor pricing, and cost analysis across multiple large-scale projects.
The ideal candidate will bring deep expertise in ground-up construction estimating, strong leadership capabilities, and a proven track record managing high-value projects from early design through bid execution and project turnover.
Responsibilities of the Director of Estimating:
  • Lead and oversee all estimating activities for residential and commercial construction projects.
  • Personally prepare and review conceptual budgets, detailed estimates, GMPs, and bid proposals for major projects.
  • Develop accurate estimates for materials, labor, equipment, subcontracts, and construction facilities for all contract types, including lump sum, negotiated, GMP, and time-and-material contracts.
  • Lead the estimating department while remaining actively involved in day-to-day estimating responsibilities.
  • Perform quantity takeoffs, pricing analysis, scope reviews, and value engineering exercises for assigned projects.
  • Collaborate closely with development, construction, architecture, engineering, and project management teams to ensure budget alignment and project feasibility.
  • Build and maintain strong relationships with subcontractors, suppliers, consultants, and industry partners.
  • Lead subcontractor solicitation efforts, evaluate bids, analyze scope coverage, and negotiate pricing to ensure best overall project value.
  • Attend on-site pre-bid/proposal conferences, site visits, and design coordination meetings.
  • Prepare and present cost estimates, budget updates, and project analyses to senior leadership and project teams.
  • Oversee project bid status reporting and ensure compliance with project specifications, contract requirements, and bid documentation.
  • Develop and maintain historical cost databases, benchmarking tools, and estimating systems to improve forecasting accuracy and efficiency.
  • Monitor market conditions, labor trends, material escalation, and industry developments impacting project costs.
  • Mentor and support estimating staff while establishing best practices, procedures, and quality standards across the department.
  • Collaborate with operations and project management teams to support successful project execution.
  • Balance strategic leadership responsibilities with hands-on estimating production in a fast-paced development environment.
Qualifications of the Director of Estimating:
  • Bachelor's degree in Construction Management, Engineering, Architecture, or a related field required.
  • Minimum of 10-15 years of progressive estimating experience, preferably within large-scale residential, mixed-use, or commercial high-rise construction.
  • Prior experience leading estimating teams strongly preferred.
  • Proven ability to both lead estimating operations and independently produce detailed estimates for complex construction projects.
  • Extensive experience preparing conceptual estimates, hard bids, GMPs, and value engineering analyses for ground-up developments.
  • Strong understanding of construction means and methods, building systems, scheduling, and project sequencing.
  • Advanced knowledge of construction drawings, specifications, scopes of work, and contract documents.
  • Strong analytical, organizational, negotiation, and problem-solving skills.
  • Excellent communication and presentation abilities with the ability to collaborate across departments and leadership levels.
  • Ability to manage multiple high-priority projects simultaneously while meeting aggressive deadlines.
  • Advanced proficiency in estimating software, Microsoft Excel, Microsoft Project, PowerPoint, Word, Outlook, and database systems.
  • Experience working collaboratively with ownership, developers, architects, engineers, subcontractors, and operations teams.
Benefits Offered to the Director of Estimating:
  • Competitive compensation package with bonus potential
  • Medical, Dental, and Vision Insurance
  • 401(k) Plan
  • Life Insurance
  • Paid Vacation, Holidays, and Sick Leave
  • Tuition Reimbursement
