I'm seeking an experienced Estimator to lead consolidated, facility-wide cost modeling across a multi-discipline capital project entering advanced execution phases.
This role sits on the owner’s side and integrates total CAPEX and lifecycle OPEX across engineering, procurement, construction, commissioning, and operational readiness.
This is program-level cost authority, not just discipline estimating.

Consolidate multi-scope and multi-contract inputs into a normalized program estimate
Establish WBS/CBS structures aligned with project controls and financial reporting
EPC Interface & Estimate Reconciliation
Review and validate EPC contractor estimates, methodologies, labor norms, and indirect structures
Lead estimate challenge sessions and reconciliation workshops
Evaluate change orders, trends, and cost growth impacts at program level
Risk & Scenario Analysis
Develop parametric and factored estimates for early-phase decisions
Support contingency modeling and risk-based estimating
Analyze escalation, productivity, and market assumptions
Project Controls Alignment
Ensure alignment between estimates, budgets, and forecasts
Maintain estimate basis documentation and version control
What They’re Looking For
Experience estimating large-scale industrial or infrastructure projects
Comfort working across engineering, procurement, and construction scopes
Strong EPC interface experience
Background in energy, industrial processing, heavy manufacturing, or similar environments preferred
