Senior Estimator - Restaurant Design-Build

**Senior Estimator - Restaurant Design-Build

Corona, NY In-Person $105,000 - $135,000 /yr Full-Time**

A well established and growing design-build construction company is hiring a Senior Estimator to own the budgeting process from initial concept through final contract pricing. This is a rare seat that combines estimating, design, and direct client relationships in one role, built for someone who has spent their career doing both and been asked to pick just one. Join a team that cares about their people and gives you the tools, trust, and ownership to do the job the way you always thought it should be done.

What You’ll Do:

• Walk new client spaces, gather existing plans and equipment lists, and capture the concept and target budget
• Scan spaces using modern capture tools and produce accurate first-draft layouts
• Write design and mechanical narratives alongside senior leadership
• Lead subcontractor walkthroughs, collect trade pricing, and price finish materials with suppliers
• Review and present budgets internally and directly to clients, incorporating feedback
• Update budgets at each design milestone, tracking every change through to the final contract number
• Help build and maintain the company’s internal pricing database and cost benchmarks

What You Bring:

• Years of pricing and building commercial interiors; restaurant construction experience strongly preferred
• Design-build background is ideal
• Strong drafting ability; your test-fit layouts should read as competent to an architect
• Comfort pricing from incomplete information using named allowances
• Confidence running a budget review that clients and subcontractors both respect
• Ability to manage multiple active budgets against real deadlines using a system

What’s In It For You:

• Base salary plus a meaningful quarterly bonus tied to company profit
• Full financial transparency into company performance and goals
• A permanent, ownership-style role rather than a bid-queue position
• Modern tools and the standing to keep them current
• A supportive team environment with real mentorship from senior leadership

This is a rare, purpose-built seat that won’t stay open long. If you have design-build or restaurant construction estimating experience, apply today to be considered.
