Job Description:

The role of HVAC Estimator with our client is a pivotal one, with the incumbent playing a key role in winning jobs and setting project budgets. In this role, the HVAC Estimator will take ownership of cost-estimating HVAC systems (units, ducts, piping, controls, etc.), from the early stages of walk-throughs to the final bid submission. Your estimates will help the team scope the work, evaluate options, and set the stage for successful project delivery.

Job Responsibility:

  • Review project plans, specifications, design-build documents and work with the sales team to understand project scope, phasing, constraints, and client expectations
  • Perform take-offs for HVAC systems: sheet metal, ductwork, piping (chilled/hot water, refrigerant, etc.), equipment, controls, labor, and subcontractor scopes
  • Solicit and evaluate vendor and subcontractor quotes for equipment and material, maintain unit cost databases, and track historical estimating data
  • Produce detailed cost estimates and bid packages—including labor, materials, equipment, overhead, allowances, contingency, and mark-up
  • Attend job walks / pre-bid meetings and site surveys to capture job-specific conditions, constraints, and build-ability issues
  • Collaborate with project management, design team, and operations to verify constructability, schedule impacts, change order potential, and ensure budget alignment
  • Maintain and update estimating logs, project cost history, and data for continuous improvement of estimate accuracy
  • Provide value-engineering suggestions when appropriate: alternative materials, system layouts, labor efficiencies
  • Support change order estimating and budget monitoring post-award when required

Requirements:

  • Minimum 3 years estimating experience in commercial/industrial HVAC systems (or mechanical contracting)
  • Strong ability to read and interpret construction drawings, specifications, and mechanical system plans
  • Demonstrated experience performing HVAC take-offs and developing full system cost estimates (equipment, duct/piping, labor)
  • Proficiency with estimating software (or willingness to learn) and Microsoft Office (especially Excel)
  • Excellent analytical skills, attention to detail, strong verbal and written communication
  • Self-motivated, able to manage multiple bids/projects concurrently under deadlines
  • Ability to perform site visits if required

Nice to have:

  • Familiarity with industry unit-cost databases
  • Bachelor’s degree in construction management, Mechanical Engineering, or related field—or equivalent combination of education + experience
  • Prior background in HVAC field (installer, service tech, foreman)
  • Plumbing estimating experience
What we offer:
  • 100% coverage of medical/vision/dental and prescription premiums for employees
  • Company-matching 401K program
  • Paid holidays/time off
