About the Company
Our client is a commercial electrical contracting company based in South Florida specializing in mid-to-large-scale commercial projects, including hospitals, condominiums, and mixed-use developments.
About the Role
We are seeking a detail-oriented and experienced Senior Electrical Estimator to join our team as a dedicated, full-time estimator working within our client's existing systems and workflows. The ideal candidate will own the full bid lifecycle — from plan review and quantity takeoff through bid submission and post-award submittals. This is a critical role where accuracy directly impacts profitability; errors in estimating can result in significant losses on a single project. You will be working directly with the ownership team and will play a key role in the company's ability to pursue and win more work.
Responsibilities
Perform detailed quantity takeoffs from architect-provided plans using the client's existing estimating software — including material counts, labor hour assessments, and site-specific electrical requirements. Review project specifications, addendums, plan schedules, and local electrical codes thoroughly to identify missing information and flag questions before bid submission. Manage the full bid solicitation and submission process — from coordinating supplier and vendor pricing to preparing and submitting complete, accurate bids in the client's required format. Track active bid invitations, manage the estimating pipeline, and coordinate with vendors and subcontractors on pricing and scope clarification. Support post-award workflows including subcontractor buyouts, submittals packages, and ongoing coordination with subs and suppliers on scope and scheduling. Demonstrate familiarity with South Florida market conditions, local permitting requirements, and project timelines specific to Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach counties. Must-Have Qualifications 5+ years of estimating experience in commercial electrical work, with demonstrated experience on large-scale projects ($2M - $5M+ electrical scope) for U.S. clients. Proven experience building out and owning estimating processes and workflows from the ground up. Strong ability to read and interpret architectural and electrical plans with a high degree of accuracy, including code compliance considerations. End-to-end bid process experience — from takeoff and supplier pricing coordination through formal submission, plus familiarity with post-award workflows (buyouts, submittals, scope coordination). Direct project experience on commercial building types such as hospitals, condominiums, mixed-use developments, and similar commercial structures. South Florida market experience is strongly preferred — familiarity with local permitting, electrical codes, and project timelines in Miami-Dade, Broward, and West Palm Beach counties. Fluent English communication skills (written and verbal) and prior experience working remotely for a U.S.-based contractor is strongly preferred. Evaluation Process Qualified candidates will be asked to provide an anonymized sample electrical estimate for a commercial project of similar scale ($2M - $5M electrical scope) to demonstrate estimating thoroughness, format, and approach. References from previous U.S.-based clients will also be requested as part of the vetting process.
