Job Description
The Colorado Springs Purchasing Team at David Weekley Homes is looking for an experienced Estimator who will share their knowledge and learn new skills in a fun, intense and challenging environment. While experience is appreciated, the ability to learn and apply new systems is equally important if not more so.
If you can appreciate the usefulness of a good “To-Do” list, if pivot tables are your jam, and if you believe a well-thought-out comparison chart is a thing of beauty, then there is a good chance you are a good fit for this position.

Develop and maintain accurate plan budgets, analyze reports related to estimating activities, and track status of assigned projects.
Manage all aspects of the bid coordination process, including blueprint. validation, bid request preparation, research and cost comparison reporting.
Maintain master job cost files and convert material lists and cost estimates to database.
Coordinate the flow of information among suppliers, vendors, purchasing staff, builders & DWH computer systems.
Generate price pro-forma and other financial reporting for all communities.
Field visits for takeoff validations.
Interact directly with builders, internal sales personnel, and suppliers.
Provide generalized service support for internal customers.
Qualifications
Experience in Estimating or knowledge of construction and understanding blueprints is required.
Proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite, particularly Excel preferred.
Solid mathematical and analytical skills.
Strong organization and communication skills.
Ability to work independently for long periods while supporting and contributing to your team.
Initiative to drive required activities to completion in a timely manner.
JD Edwards or other database system knowledge is a plus.
Autodesk Design Review and estimating software experience is a plus.
The Candidate- We are looking for:
A good fit with our team. We need someone the team can trust, rely on, hang out with, bounce ideas off of, and generally interact with in a positive way both personally and professionally.
An incredibly hard worker. You reliably see tasks through to the end, without supervision, and ask for more. You know when to ask for help and you give bad news early.
Super focused. You have the ability to work through complex problems and large amounts of data while staying focused on the team’s goals.
A superior communicator. You effectively explain concepts and processes, written and verbally, to peers and customers.
An efficient and accurate planner. You know where you want to be in two weeks and know how to get there. However, your day won’t be ruined if an unexpected task pops up.
