  • Review and understand various contract models and their terms and conditions.
  • Contribute to project planning with a focus on earthworks, concrete, and remote-site challenges.
  • Adapt quickly to changing demands in a fast-paced environment while maintaining high attention to detail.

What You Bring :

  • 5+ years of experience in heavy civil construction estimating (field experience is a bonus!).
  • Proficiency in construction estimating software and tools like HeavyBid.
  • A solid understanding of construction activities, particularly in earthworks and concrete.
  • Strong organizational skills and the ability to juggle multiple tasks under tight deadlines.
  • Technical diploma, engineering degree, or professional designations (ASTTBC or EGBC) are assets.
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Office tools, including Word, Excel, and Project.
  • Effective communication skills and a proactive, solutions-oriented mindset.

    • Why Join? This role offers a blend of office and field opportunities, allowing you to work both collaboratively and independently on exciting projects across BC. You’ll be part of a team that values innovation, quality, and personal growth, all while being based in the beautiful Kelowna area.
