Job Description

Position Title: Project Coordinator – Estimating Career Track

Salary Range: $80,000–$90,000 / Year, DOE

Are you a Project Coordinator or Assistant Project Manager in the construction industry who enjoys working with plans, bids, costs, vendors, and project documentation? This is an opportunity to take that experience and build a career in electrical construction estimating. A well-established commercial and industrial electrical contractor is looking for a motivated Project Coordinator who wants to learn the estimating side of the business. You do not need to already be a seasoned electrical estimator. The company is willing to train and mentor someone who has a strong construction foundation, is comfortable working with project documents and numbers, and genuinely wants to move into estimating.

Responsibilities:

  • Reviewing incoming bid opportunities and helping determine which projects to pursue
  • Downloading, organizing, and reviewing plans, specifications, and bid documents
  • Helping prepare bid packages and project documentation
  • Coordinating vendor and subcontractor pricing
  • Assisting with material and labor takeoffs
  • Tracking multiple bid opportunities and deadlines
  • Supporting pre-bid preparation and occasional jobsite walkthroughs
  • Working closely with Project Managers and experienced Estimators
  • Learning how to build detailed electrical construction estimates
  • Gradually taking ownership of smaller estimates and bids as your experience grows

Requirements:

  • Project Coordinator, Assistant Project Manager, Estimating Coordinator, Project Engineer, or similar construction experience
  • Experience working for an electrical contractor, commercial subcontractor, mechanical/HVAC contractor, or related construction company
  • Exposure to bids, proposals, takeoffs, change orders, purchase orders, plans, specifications, or vendor quotes
  • Strong computer and organizational skills
  • Ability to manage multiple projects, deadlines, and documents
  • Ability to commute to Robbinsville Township, NJ

Benefits

  • Performance-based bonus opportunity
  • Monday–Friday, typically 7:00 AM–4:00 PM
  • Primarily office-based with occasional local site visits
  • Local projects generally within approximately one hour of the office
  • Health insurance
  • PTO starting around 2 weeks, with potential flexibility for the right candidate
  • Sick time

If you’re a construction Project Coordinator who has been looking for the opportunity to break into estimating, this could be your next step.
