\n


\n

This is not just estimating.

\n

This is where strategy wins projects.

\n


\n

If you’ve led bids on major infrastructure…

\n

this is your opportunity to step into a role where you shape billion-dollar outcomes.

\n


\n


\n

Why Canada — And Why Now?

\n


\n

Because infrastructure is moving at scale.

\n


\n

• Massive investment across transit, highways, bridges & airports

\n

• Long-term, government-backed pipelines

\n

• Stability + world-class lifestyle

\n

• A country that supports leaders and families relocating long-term

\n


\n

This is timing. And it’s big.

\n


\n


\n

🏗️ The Opportunity

\n


\n

A Tier 1, employee-owned contractor is expanding its Infrastructure division and hiring a Chief Estimator to lead from the front.

\n


\n

You’ll report directly to the Pre-Construction Director and take ownership of:

\n


\n

• Major transit & transportation bids

\n

• High-value infrastructure pursuits

\n

• Estimating strategy across multiple large-scale projects

\n


\n

This is not a back-office role.

\n

You are driving how projects are won.

\n


\n


\n

🔥 What You’ll Be Leading

\n


\n

• Roads, highways & interchanges

\n

• Bridges & major structures

\n

• LRT / BRT transit systems

\n

• Airports & large infrastructure programs

\n


\n


\n

&99;️ What You’ll Own

\n


\n

• Full oversight of pre-construction & estimating performance

\n

• Bid strategy, risk analysis & cost optimisation

\n

• Conceptual estimating → tender submission

\n

• Constructability input & innovation strategies

\n

• Leadership of high-performing estimating teams

\n

• Stakeholder engagement across clients, consultants & partners

\n


\n


\n

🎯 Who This Is For

\n


\n

'14;️ 20+ years across estimating + construction delivery

\n

'14;️ Proven leadership on $100M+ infrastructure projects

\n

'14;️ Strong experience in Design-Build / CM / IPD models

\n

'14;️ Ability to lead teams, mentor talent & drive performance

\n

'14;️ Commercially sharp — you understand how to win work profitably

\n

'14;️ Comfortable operating at senior leadership level

\n


\n


\n

&A1; Why This Role Stands Out

\n


\n

💰 Executive compensation + bonus + ownership (shares)

\n

📈 Long-term pipeline of major infrastructure work

\n

🌍 Full relocation support for you & your family

\n

🏗️ A role where your decisions directly impact multi-million/billion-dollar outcomes

\n
