About the Company
Our client is a highly respected, family-owned glass and glazing company based in New Orleans, Louisiana, with deep industry roots dating back to 1956. Specializing in large-scale institutional, healthcare, and commercial projects, they are a regional leader in hurricane impact-rated glass systems. Operating with a lean, close-knit team, the company values mentorship, knowledge-sharing, and collaboration, and is looking for a dedicated estimator to support their next chapter of business growth.
Job Description
We are seeking an analytical and detail-oriented Remote Estimator to join a seasoned pre-construction team. In this role, you will work closely with senior leadership to augment their bidding capacity, independently owning the estimating process for mid-sized projects ($150K–$500K) while providing vital support on large-scale institutional bids exceeding $2M–$5M+. This is an incredible opportunity for a professional looking to leverage their technical expertise within a stable, supportive U.S. construction framework that values continuous learning and long-term career growth.
Responsibilities
Prepare highly detailed quantity takeoffs and accurate cost estimates specifically for commercial glass, glazing, and storefront systems.
Manage end-to-end bid documentation workflows, ensuring all bid preparation requirements and local guidelines are meticulously met.
Calculate accurate labor cost projections, project timelines, and logistical variables, including specialized assessments for high-rise work requiring swing stages and lifts.
Lead vendor outreach and request for quotes (RFQs), building and maintaining strong coordination with major U.S. suppliers like YKK, US Aluminum/CR Lawrence, and Old Castle Building Envelope.
Support pre-construction logistics, compile submittals, and manage RFIs to ensure a seamless handoff to operations teams.
Utilize Bloom & Beam OST software (or similar estimating platforms) to maintain organized, data-driven pipelines.
Project Types
Large institutional and healthcare facilities
Commercial office buildings and high-rise developments
Hurricane impact-rated glass and resilient building systems
Complex mid-to-large-scale storefront and curtain wall installations ($150K to $5M+ scope)
Requirements
Experience & Background: 2+ years of dedicated glass and glazing estimating experience on U.S. construction projects, OR a strong background in Civil Engineering with transferable structural estimating skills.
Software Proficiency: Hands-on experience with estimating software—Bloom & Beam OST is highly preferred, but equivalent takeoff platforms are accepted.
Technical Knowledge: Strong ability to read and interpret complex architectural and structural plans, evaluate labor dynamics, and handle multi-million-dollar bids.
Communication & Alignment: Exceptional, fluent English communication skills (written and verbal) for accurate internal collaboration and vendor outreach.
Schedule: Full-time availability strictly matching U.S. Central Time (CT) operations.
Market Exposure: Prior experience with hurricane-resilient building systems or projects in the Gulf Coast, Caribbean, or Puerto Rico markets is a massive plus.
