Description
Job Description
Company Overview:
People power our future. That is why advancing a dynamic, inclusive environment, where everyone grows and thrives is critically important to us.
Our ingenuity fuels daily life. Together, weve forged some of the most trusted partnerships across the energy value chain to make what was once just an idea a reality: laying subsea infrastructure thousands of feet below sea level, installing offshore platforms hundreds of miles from shore, and using our expertise to design and build offshore wind infrastructure.
For more than 100 years, we've been making the impossible possible. Today, we're driving the energy transition with more than 30,000 of the brightest minds across 54 countries.
Here, what you do matters.
Job Overview:
The Principal Estimator will be expected to plan and lead estimating effort on large, complex projects and all types of contracts; understand and apply standard estimating concepts, practices, and company procedures; provide guidance and leadership to project/proposal teams on estimated related topics.
The principal estimator will work relatively independently providing regular updates to and seeking guidance from the Estimating Director; lead/coordinate the efforts of discipline estimators; support other estimators in their estimates.
