    Cost Estimator - Philadelphia, United States - Stantec Inc.

    Default job background
    Description


    Many of the world's top engineers and scientists come together in our Water business because they view a community's interaction with water a bit differently-as a single holistic system, rather than unconnected networks divided by jurisdictional boundaries.

    Working throughout the hydrologic cycle, we are delivering sustainable solutions to make sure water is where it should be and available when needed.

    Our experts guide our work with scientific rigor, an innovative spirit, and a vision for growth. Every day, we help communities improve, reuse, and protect this precious resource for future generations. By 2025 we're hiring 2,000 people (like you) to join our team. Grow with us, H2O+U.

    Your Opportunity


    As a Senior Electrical Estimator at Stantec, you will be responsible for developing, managing, and coordinating large electrical cost estimates.

    You will collaborate with a dynamic team of cost estimators, schedulers, and construction engineers in Stantec's construction engineering group.

    You will be responsible for coordinating teams of discipline estimators, and the position will frequently require the direct estimating of at least one other project discipline.


    The position will have responsibility to support exciting, complex projects throughout the world ranging from approximately $1 million to $2 billion.

    The successful candidate will be responsible for the coordination and development of electrical cost estimates and assist schedulers (as needed) with project development milestones.

    Stantec takes a measured approach to workplace flexibility and choice for employee's workplaces.

    Our goal is to strike the optimal balance between providing flexibility, sustaining successful teams, and optimizing productivity for the benefit of our employees, projects, and clients.

    We value a vibrant, healthy, enriching workplace culture that considers employee well-being and work-life balance so our people can bring their best to work every day.

    This position will have flexibility in working from home or a Stantec US office and may require some domestic and possibly international travel.

    Your Key Responsibilities


    • Supervise and coordinate the timely and complete development of electrical cost estimates.
    • Provide generally non-routine estimating guidance for projects.
    • Coordinate the input parameters for cost estimates and construction schedules.

    • Prepare and coordinate constructability reviews for engineering designs.
    • Serve as a cost estimating point of contact for internal clients.
    • Manage and provide guidance to junior and intermediate estimating staff.
