About the role

Layton Construction is seeking a Senior Estimator to manage and assist in the preparation of project estimates across multiple programs. The role emphasizes cost accuracy and strong client-facing professionalism during preconstruction. The Senior Estimator will read plans, perform quantity takeoffs, and develop bid strategies while collaborating with architects, owners, and subcontractors to deliver competitive, well-documented estimates.

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.
