Cask Construction

Job Description Job Description You're the kind of Residential Estimator & Project Manager who takes pride in getting the numbers right and helping clients make smart decisions. You enjoy building accurate budgets, validating scope, and making sure every detail is accounted for before construction begins. At the same time, you're comfortable sitting down with homeowners, walking through plans, and guiding them through tradeoffs, costs, and real-world construction constraints. You're naturally organized and detail-oriented, but you're not just behind the scenes. You communicate clearly, ask thoughtful questions, and help move conversations forward. You're confident making recommendations and bringing clarity when plans, pricing, or expectations don't align. Others would describe you as sharp, reliable, and easy to work with. You follow through, you catch what others miss, and you take ownership of getting things right. You don't avoid difficult conversations, especially when it comes to budget, scope, or feasibility. You handle them professionally, directly, and with the client's best interest in mind. You enjoy working in a structured environment with clear systems and expectations, and you take pride in turning well-developed plans into well-executed projects. What This Role is Really About This is not a traditional back-office estimator role, and it's not a pure construction project manager role. This is a client-facing, residential pre-construction role where you'll: Build and manage project budgets Lead bidding and subcontractor pricing Guide homeowners through design decisions Translate plans into real-world construction scope Ensure projects are set up for success before construction begins If you've only worked in commercial construction, or only managed projects after they've broken ground, this role likely won't be the right fit. What You'll Do Lead residential projects from early design through permit and construction kickoff Create and refine project budgets, including multiple revisions before permit Manage subcontractor bidding and validate scope + pricing accuracy Walk clients through plans, selections, and design decisions Identify constructability issues and recommend practical solutions Ensure plans align with code requirements and real-world constraints Coordinate with draftsmen, designers, and trade partners Manage permitting, revisions, and documentation Finalize project scope, pricing, and contracts prior to construction Set projects up in Buildertrend with accurate budgets, schedules, and cost codes Maintain clear, proactive communication with clients throughout How Your Success Will Be Measured You'll be measured against clear, achievable KPIs aligned to our growth goals.

We're growing fast, and we're intentional about how we grow, with strong systems, high standards, and a team that takes pride in doing things the right way. Our culture is built for high performers who want ownership, balance, and a team they actually enjoy working with. If you're currently at a larger company where you're stretched thin, constantly chasing fires, and missing time with family, this role will feel different. You'll work locally, lead meaningful projects from start to finish, and be part of a tight-knit team where your work is seen, valued, and directly impacts the success of the company. We value people who are self-motivated, organized, and collaborative, and who consistently deliver on commitments. You'll be expected to exceed customer expectations through strong follow-through, maintain accurate budgets and schedules, build realistic plans and adjust proactively, and keep projects moving with drive and persistence. You'll also be someone who involves others, leverages the team's expertise, and stays calm, empathetic, and professional with clients, especially during stressful moments. This is a role for a seasoned construction professional who wants to do great work, build something they're proud of, and still have a life outside of construction.
