Senior Estimator – Commercial & Public Construction Reno, NV | Onsite   About the Opportunity An established commercial general contractor in Northern Nevada is looking for an experienced Senior Estimator to join its preconstruction team. This is a high-priority hire, and the company is prepared to be flexible on compensation for an exceptional candidate with the right depth of estimating and public construction experience.   This is not a role where you'll be handed individual scopes or daily estimating assignments. We're looking for a seasoned estimator who can independently own the entire estimating process, taking projects from early concept through final pricing and turnover.   What You'll Do * Independently lead estimates from conceptual/preconstruction stages through final bid and project turnover * Develop conceptual budgets, detailed estimates, quantity takeoffs and final pricing * Estimate commercial and public projects, typically ranging from approximately $15M to $100M+ * Support Construction Management and Design-Build project delivery * Review drawings, specifications and requirements across all major building trades * Lead subcontractor solicitation, scope review, bid leveling and pricing analysis * Identify project risks, constructability concerns and value-engineering opportunities * Work directly with owners, architects, engineers, subcontractors and internal operations teams * Participate in preconstruction meetings, pursuits and estimate presentations * Maintain ownership of budgets and pricing as projects progress through design * Ensure a smooth handoff from preconstruction to operations   What We're Looking For * 10+ years of hands-on construction estimating experience * Strong background with a commercial General Contractor / Construction Manager * Significant experience estimating public-sector projects of comparable size and complexity * Experience with Design-Build and Construction Management delivery * Ability to independently take an estimate from conception through completion * Strong conceptual estimating, budgeting, takeoff, subcontractor pricing, VE and constructability experience * Experience estimating across multiple building trades, rather than one specialty division * Strong owner, design-team and subcontractor communication skills * Bluebeam, Sage, Procore, Excel or similar software experience preferred * Construction Management, Civil Engineering or related degree preferred; equivalent experience considered   Compensation & Opportunity Target base salary is approximately $130K–$160K+, with flexibility to go higher for top candidates. The company understands that highly experienced Senior/Chief Estimators can command more and is willing to consider compensation accordingly.   This is an opportunity to join a well-established Northern Nevada contractor with a strong backlog and growing portfolio of commercial and public work. The right person will have significant autonomy and ownership and play an important role in how the company estimates, pursues and wins future projects.
