Senior Commercial Paint Estimator


I'm working with a well-established commercial contractor in the Charlotte Metro area that's looking to add an experienced Senior Commercial Paint Estimator to their team. This is a long-term opportunity for someone who can hit the ground running with commercial painting estimates, while also bringing drywall experience as a plus. The business is looking for someone local to the Charlotte/Monroe area who is confident using OST and QuickBid from day one.


What You'll Be Doing


  • Produce accurate commercial painting estimates from bid through award.
  • Complete detailed quantity takeoffs using On-Screen Takeoff (OST) and QuickBid.
  • Review construction drawings, specifications, bulletins and ASIs, updating estimates as projects evolve.
  • Price labour, materials and equipment while developing realistic project budgets and labour forecasts.
  • Work closely with general contractors to clarify scope and review project documents in Bluebeam.
  • Lead scope review and estimating meetings to prioritise upcoming bids.
  • Prepare Schedule of Values (SOVs), working budgets and project handover information for the operations team.
  • Assist with contract reviews, submittals, change orders through Clearstory, closeout documentation and warranty packages.
  • Support project scheduling using Microsoft Project where required.


What They're Looking For


  • 5+ years of commercial estimating experience.
  • Strong commercial painting estimating background.
  • Drywall estimating experience is preferred.
  • Concrete estimating experience is a bonus, not a requirement.
  • Advanced proficiency with OST (On-Screen Takeoff) and QuickBid.
  • Experience using Bluebeam.
  • Ability to read and interpret construction drawings, shop drawings and specifications.
  • Based in or within commuting distance of Monroe or the Charlotte Metro area.


Why It's Worth a Look


  • Stable, established commercial contractor with a consistent pipeline of work.
  • Opportunity to play a key role in the estimating team and influence bid strategy.
  • Variety of commercial projects across multiple sectors.
  • Long-term career growth with a company investing in its preconstruction team.
