A construction estimator recruiter specializes in placing candidates who scope, price, and bid construction projects. Experienced estimators are increasingly hard to find as retirements outpace new talent entering the field. Pay for estimators moves based on project size and complexity, sector (heavy civil, data center, rail, tunnels, wastewater, site development), years of experience, software proficiency, and whether the role requires travel. Strong candidates typically combine field experience with takeoff and estimating software skills. Amundson Group places estimators across these sectors for 250+ construction companies, drawing on a network of 90,000+ construction professionals.
