Job Description

About the Company:

A privately held mechanical contractor with nearly 80 years of history, and a reputation built on doing things right. Their work spans commercial HVAC construction across the New York metro area including tenant fit-outs, hotels, entertainment venues, retail spaces, and more, with most projects located in New York City. Actively investing in the next generation and seeking to bring in motivated, capable people who want to grow their career with the company.

About the Position:

Hiring for a Mechanical Estimator to join the estimating team in the Garden City office. Responsible to independently prepare detailed estimates for commercial HVAC construction projects, ranging from small scopes to large-scale jobs, develop proposals, cost breakdowns and participate in pre-bid meetings and job site walkthroughs to assess field conditions firsthand.

This position is a great fit for a hands-on commercial mechanical estimator who is ready to keep growing and take the next step with their career, in an environment where their effort and judgment will genuinely matter.

Working directly under our Head of Estimating, contributing independently to a wide range of bids where there is a lot of knowledge around you and genuine investment in helping you develop. The projects you estimate will range from smaller scopes to $10M+ jobs. The end customers include fashion brands, sports teams, law firms, tech companies, and more.

Requirements:

  • A degree in engineering or construction related discipline is a plus, but not required.
  • 5+ years of prior Estimating experience for a commercial mechanical subcontractor.
  • Genuine interest in learning and improving from the people around you and on your own.
  • Comfort with Excel and standard office tools; familiarity with estimating software or openness to learning it is a plus.
