What We Offer

~1 min read

Our client is a fast-growing, multi-faceted construction and custom building company based in Reno, Nevada. In addition to high-end custom residential builds and commercial contracting, they operate a specialized paint division and an in-house proprietary cabinet line. Operating with a lean, efficient team structure, the company is built on absolute transparency and honesty—firmly rejecting the industry trend of under-bidding projects just to hit clients with change orders later. They focus on delivering meticulously accurate, value-driven bids that build long-term trust with their clients.

We are seeking a highly meticulous and analytical Remote Construction Estimator to join a growing operations team. In this role, you will work directly alongside the business owner to take over the day-to-day estimating pipeline, freeing up leadership to focus on field management and scaling operations. You will own the full takeoff and pre-construction lifecycle for both high-end custom homes ($1M–$3.2M+) and commercial tenant improvements (TI). The ideal candidate is a "nitty-gritty" detail guru who practices intense due diligence, ensuring no finish, specialized trade, or scope detail is ever missed.
