About the Company

We’re working with a growing commercial masonry contractor specializing in brick, block, and stone work for high-end commercial construction projects across the US.

The company is founder-led with a close-knit, predominantly Spanish-speaking team. As the business continues to grow, they’re looking for an experienced Commercial Masonry Estimator who can take ownership of the estimating process and help increase project capacity.

About the Role

As a Commercial Masonry Estimator, you’ll own the complete estimation cycle — from reviewing drawings and performing quantity takeoffs to gathering vendor pricing and preparing competitive bids.

You’ll work closely with the founder, project teams, vendors, and trade partners to ensure estimates are accurate, complete, and delivered on time.

The company uses Tradesman estimating software and will provide training. The ideal candidate should be comfortable learning new systems and is expected to ramp up on the platform within approximately 60 days.

Spanish fluency is highly valued due to the bilingual nature of the team

Strong attention to detail and ability to manage multiple estimates and deadlines

Comfortable working independently in a remote environment

Strong communication and follow-through

Ability to learn new software and cloud-based systems independently

A degree in Civil Engineering, Construction Management, or a related field is a plus but not required if you have strong hands-on masonry estimating experience.
