What are the responsibilities and job description for the Construction Estimator position at American Athletic Track and Turf?
About Us
American Athletic Track and Turf is the East Coast's premier running track and artificial turf field builder. We are a small, family-owned business that prides itself on delivering exceptional sports facilities for schools, universities, municipalities, and government clients.
We coordinate with trusted subcontractors to provide complete facility solutions, including turf fields, bleachers, and other stadium infrastructure. As we continue to expand, we're looking for a Construction Estimator to join our team and support our bidding, pre-construction, and project management efforts.
This role is perfect for someone early in their career who is eager to learn outdoor construction from beginning to end in a specialized construction industry. The successful candidate will assist with preparing accurate and competitive bids for upcoming projects, working closely with senior estimators to analyze project plans, calculate costs, communicate with vendors and subcontractors, and ensure our bids are complete and competitive.
- Assist in reviewing project plans, specifications, and bid documents
- Help prepare detailed bid proposals and cost estimates using accurate supplier pricing, in-depth site measurements, and our own bidding process
- Attend pre-bid meetings and conduct site visits to assess project conditions
- Work closely with project managers and field teams to plan and schedule projects
- Interface with field crews and provide backup support as needed
- Manage procurement of equipment and materials as needed
- Support CEO, VP, and other employees with daily operational tasks and project tracking
- Maintain up-to-date records of bids, proposals, and awarded projects
Requirements
We are looking for someone with 2-3 years of experience working in heavy site-civil construction (field experience, estimating, or project coordination preferred). Knowledge of site work, paving, drainage, or sports facility construction is a plus. Proficiency in project scheduling applications (Gantt Project or others) and proficiency in Microsoft Office and Bid2Win software (or willingness to learn) is required.
Benefits
As part of a tight-knit, growing company, you'll have opportunities to lead high-profile sports facility projects from start to finish and advance into senior leadership roles. You'll be part of a team where your work makes an immediate impact.
