Estimating/Project Management Assistant

We are a leading distributor in the commercial construction industry, and we are looking for an energetic, positive individual who desires to work for a small company in a busy and fun, yet highly productive environment. We have 10 amazing people that all work exceptionally well together, and we're looking to do the almost impossible-add another to the mix without changing the group dynamics. A teachable spirit is mostly what we look for-we can train and teach and invest in you and help you to be successful. If you can keep up, pitch in and support our work environment and are excited about the opportunity to work for a company that is different from most in a wonderful way, please apply.

We need an Estimating/Project Management Assistant capable of supporting our team to meet the needs of our sometimes demanding clients. Gathering costs from our suppliers and manufacturers and online as well is a big part of the process, but we also must consider things like freight and sales tax and our markups and labor as well for installation to provide our clients with a turnkey quote. In the beginning, you will be working with the President of our company so that he can share his experiences and teach/train/mold and shape you into a future successful Estimator/Project Manager.

Job Responsibilities/Required Skills:

40 hours a week

Ability to work at a fast pace and learn quickly

Incredibly organized to keep up with the demands of our projects

Basic office functions including communicating with clients and jobsite superintendents and manufacturers/suppliers, filing, keeping spreadsheets updated, and assisting our estimators and project managers

The ability to take direction and to learn-we are looking for someone with a teachable spirit. Please engage with us, ask questions and learn and grow.

The ability to communicate with others verbally and via email-we love email!

Follow-through and a strong sense of responsibility and pride in quality work

We are interested in hiring a new college graduate, so no experience is required. We are looking for a team-player with a teachable spirit and a long-term perspective. Most people whom we hire tend to stay with us for 10+ years as we believe in providing a great work environment and opportunities for growth. We also understand that we all have lives outside of work, and with that, we offer a very understanding workplace.
