Job Description

At Buffalo Construction, we’re not just builders—we’re Herd members , committed to Building Better! If you believe in Commitment, Compassion, Celebration, and Continuous Improvement , you might be the Estimator we’re looking for.

We’re on the hunt for a Construction Project Estimator who’s passionate about precision, thrives on collaboration, and wants to make a real impact from the ground up. You'll play a vital role in shaping our projects before the first shovel hits the ground—partnering with vendors, aligning with our Field Teammates, and ensuring every detail adds up to something extraordinary.

  • Perform material takeoffs and bid leveling to ensure accurate pricing and alignment.
  • Facilitate vendor interviews and compile comprehensive bid books.
  • Coordinate permitting, licensing, and preconstruction setup needs.

Document Management & Communication:

  • Drive communication across project stakeholders—architects, engineers, vendors, and owners—during the bid process.
  • Lead document control efforts including RFI tracking, submittals, shop drawings, and plan revisions.

Procurement & Logistics:

  • Collaborate with project teams to purchase materials and identify long-lead items.
  • Secure bids for equipment rentals, site trailers, dumpsters, and more.
  • Assist with drafting scopes of work and preparing jobsite setup logistics.

What You Bring to the Herd:

  • 2+ years of commercial construction estimating experience preferred.
  • Strong command of estimating tools (digital takeoffs, bid invitation platforms).
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite—especially Excel and Word .
  • Detail-oriented mindset with a collaborative spirit and problem-solving drive.

Why Buffalo Construction?

We believe that great people build great things. At Buffalo, you’ll find a team that celebrates each other’s wins, supports each other’s growth, and builds more than just structures—we build careers, culture, and community.
