Estimator - FDOT/Public Roads
Location: West Palm Beach, Fl area
You're an Estimator Who Knows FDOT and Roadwork
Our client, a land development firm is looking for an Estimator in civil construction with both FDOT and Public Roads experience –someone who knows FDOT work cold — public roadways, bid packages, takeoffs, and specs.
A site contractor in West Palm Beach with deep roots in FDOT projects across South Florida, and has a pipeline that is strong — grading, base, paving, drainage, MOT, and more.
Join a team that respects what you do –no micromanaging.
What You’ll Get:
- A company that understands estimators aren't overhead — they’re margin-makers
- Respect from a team who knows how important your role really is
- Competitive pay, benefits, and long-term opportunity
- Stability with a firm that knows the FDOT and public roads inside and out
What You'll Be Doing:
- Reviewing and pricing FDOT roadway projects for bid and negotiated work
- Performing detailed takeoffs (Bluebeam or your preferred tool) for grading, base, paving, drainage, MOT, and more
- Calling vendors and subs who you’ve probably worked with before — and negotiating
- Communicating clearly and confidently — with our PMs, owners, and municipalities
We’re Looking For:
- 5+ years of experience in civil estimating FDOT/public roadway projects
- Working knowledge of FDOT standards, specs, and pay items
- Comfort with public bid processes, including fast deadlines and complete packages
- Proficiency preferred in softwares: Bid2Win/HCSS, Bluebeam, Planswift, Heavy Bid, Agtek
- Excellent communication skills — written, verbal, and interpersonal
- Prefer local candidates or those relocating specifically to West Palm Beach. This is an on-site role.
-
Salary: $120-$150k, health insurance, 401K, paid holidays, PTO
