What are the responsibilities and job description for the Purchasing & Estimating Agent position at Metric Geo?
Purchasing & Estimating Agent
Location: Mount Pleasant, SC
I’m partnering with a growing homebuilder in the Carolinas with over 40 years of combined experience. They’re expanding into new markets and looking to add a motivated Purchasing & Estimating Agent to their team.
Why This Role:
- The title "Agent" here is basically the same as a “Manager” at other companies, and the pay reflects that.
- You’ll work alongside other agents on a supportive team, without managing anyone directly, but your role will be key to driving the business forward.
What You’ll Do:
- Build strong relationships with trade partners and evaluate bids.
- Present cost findings and strategies to leadership.
- Keep pricing systems up to date and collaborate with design teams on market trends.
- Troubleshoot cost issues and find supply chain solutions.
What You Need:
- 2-3 years of residential construction experience.
- Bonus points for commercial procurement or pre-construction experience.
