About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

Join customer and internal discovery calls to gather technical and logistical details required to scope and quote work accurately.
Translate customer needs into detailed scopes of work that account for labor, materials, travel, site conditions, constraints, and risk factors.
Create and review estimates and draft quotes using internal tools, standards, and historical performance data.
Document assumptions, exclusions, dependencies, and risks clearly so internal teams and customers understand what is included and what is not.
Partner with field teams and subcontracted technicians to validate execution approaches and improve estimating accuracy over time.
Value-engineer projects by proposing alternative approaches that reduce risk, improve efficiency, and protect margin without sacrificing delivery quality.
Support internal staff and external technicians by clarifying scope intent, job requirements, and execution expectations when needed.
Build quoting efficiencies: improve templates, scope libraries, standard assumptions, and repeatable estimating workflows as the company scales.
Help drive consistency across projects so delivery teams aren’t forced to 'figure it out in the field.'

Requirements

What you’ll need

Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to explain technical and operational details clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences.
3+ years of experience in project estimation, field services, low-voltage installation, IT infrastructure, or managed services environments.
Demonstrated ability to translate incomplete or high-level requirements into clear, executable scopes of work.
Experience participating in customer-facing discovery or scoping calls to gather technical and logistical requirements.
Strong working knowledge of how field work is executed, including labor considerations, site conditions, travel, and coordination with technicians or subcontractors.
Proficiency with the Microsoft Office Suite (Excel, Word, Outlook); comfort working with spreadsheets and documentation is essential.
Experience using industry estimating tools or internal quoting platforms; specific tools are less important than the ability to apply standards and assumptions consistently.
Strong organizational skills with the ability to manage multiple estimates or opportunities simultaneously without sacrificing accuracy.
Ability to identify risks, assumptions, and exclusions and document them clearly.
Comfortable operating in a structured environment that values margin discipline, repeatability, and continuous improvement.
