About the role

Austin Commercial is seeking a Senior Estimator to prepare detailed cost estimates for proposed construction projects, including competitive bid and negotiated work. You will develop bid lists, invite subcontractors, and participate in design meetings to understand scope and requirements. The role requires 5–9 years of estimating experience and a strong background in building designs, materials, and methods. Excellent math, communication, and organizational skills are essential.

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.
