The Estimating Intern supports the estimating team by assisting with quantity take-offs, subcontractor coordination, product research, and document management. This role offers hands-on experience in cost comparisons, record maintenance, and aligning estimating activities with project goals within a dynamic construction environment.

Responsibilities / Essential Functions

  • Assist with quantity take-offs, unit pricing, and cost comparisons; compile detailed estimates for materials, labor, and project systems, documenting assumptions and qualifications.
  • Manage subcontractor lists and contacts, conduct research on products and suppliers, and maintain accurate estimating databases and records.
  • Conduct site visits to collect project-specific data—such as access, topography, and utilities—and analyze historical cost data to support bids.
  • Prepare and reconcile cost estimates against previous projects and assist in monitoring actual vs. estimated expenditures to assess cost effectiveness.
  • Facilitate collaboration by coordinating with engineers, architects, subcontractors, and internal teams throughout the estimating process.
  • Support bid development by preparing expenditure statements, maintaining tender documentation, and participate in estimate review and value-engineering sessions.
  • Utilize cost-monitoring systems to identify potential risks or variances, contributing to negotiations and decision-making.
  • Maintain precise and timely updates in estimating databases and project files to ensure smooth estimating workflows and compliance with company procedures.

Key Skills

  • Strong written and verbal communication skills to clearly convey information to subcontractors, internal teams, and stakeholders.
  • Excellent attention to detail to ensure accuracy in cost calculations, takeoffs, and documentation.
  • Effective organizational skills to manage project files and maintain clear records across multiple active estimates.
  • Time management skills to meet tight deadlines in a fast-paced preconstruction environment.
  • Strong analytical thinking and problem-solving abilities with a focus on data accuracy and clarity.
  • Ability to collaborate effectively within a team-oriented environment.
  • Demonstrated interest in the construction industry, especially in estimating or project planning roles.
  • Adaptability and curiosity to learn new systems, methods, and technologies relevant to estimating.
  • Required Experience

  • Currently pursuing a Bachelor’s degree in Construction Management, Civil Engineering, or a related field (strong preference for construction-focused programs).
  • Foundational understanding of construction processes, materials, systems, and terminology.
  • Ability to read and interpret construction drawings, specifications, and technical documentation.
  • Proficient in Microsoft Excel for cost tracking and analysis.
  • Familiarity with estimating tools or software (e.g., Bluebeam, On-Screen Takeoff, or similar platforms) is a plus.
  • Capable of conducting vendor, material, and cost research to support pricing accuracy.
  • Experience organizing or contributing to bid documentation, cost databases, and takeoff files (preferred).
  • Basic knowledge of unit pricing, quantity takeoffs, and cost estimating principles.
