Krekow Jennings Hiring for High-End Residential Construction Estimator Job at Seattle, WA Full Time

For over 40 years, KrekowJennings (KJ) has been fulfilling dreams by building works of art that our customers live in and around. As a General Contractor, we deliver value through transparency, accountability, fairness, and an eagerness to take on assignments that others cannot approach. This is made possible by our staff that lead with high expectations for craftsmanship, integrity, and creative problem solving.

KJ invites you to join our team as a project Estimator. Our Estimators serve a key role in transforming our customers’ visions into reality. As an Estimator, you get to lead transformations by creating a construction project strategy which fulfills customer and designer goals and expectations. A successful construction project strategy is then converted into a construction contract.

A construction project strategy begins with your sharp listening skills. Your empathy helps you recognize what matters most to our customer and their designer. Working both independently and through collaboration with other KJ staff and Principals, your organizational ability, communication skills, and construction knowledge will enable you to structure a work-plan, cultivate allied trade resources, prepare an itemized budget estimate, and draft a construction schedule. Your presentation savvy will enable you to articulate the construction project strategy, demonstrating how we will successfully accomplish the customer and designer goals. With a construction contract secured, you get to transfer the project strategy to the construction team and help them prepare to execute the work.

Our Estimators do much more than measure, count, multiply and add. To be successful in this role, you will have construction experience as a commercial or large-scale residential Project Manager or Superintendent or both. Peers in your current role will describe you as a good leader, collaborator, and creative problem solver. They will be sorry to see you leave your current position, and will understand the great opportunity you are moving to.

KrekowJennings is well connected to the elite residential design and construction sector in the Puget Sound area and beyond. Your success with KJ will bring a plethora of career-defining projects, continually bringing opportunities for professional challenge and accomplishment.

At KJ, we are an EOE and offer competitive compensation, excellent benefits and a great working environment. As a next step, please visit our portfolio at www.KrekowJennings.com.
