About the role

Stantec is seeking an experienced Senior Cost Estimator to join our team. You will supervise the development of detailed cost estimates for municipal, industrial, and water projects across the US, coordinating with design and construction teams to ensure accurate, timely estimates. The role emphasizes cost control, schedule integration, and risk assessment. You will work with tools like MII, Sage, InEight, Primavera P6, and MS Project, and engage in value management and client reviews.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
