- Help ensure estimates are accurate, complete, and aligned with project goals, customer expectations, and company objectives
- Represent Granger's values through professionalism, collaboration, and exceptional customer service
What You Bring
You are analytical, detail-oriented, and relationship-focused. You enjoy solving problems, collaborating with others, and looking beyond the numbers to understand how projects come together.

- Business development, customer relationship management, or networking within the construction industry
