Estimator
The recovery period made me re-evaluate my path. I was looking for a change, wanting to step away from the demanding physical labour of site work, but I wasn’t sure what was next. During that uncertain time, I started doing general admin work for my employer, and soon after, he began teaching me the ropes of estimating. I was attending site visits, learning the ins and outs of take-offs, and quickly rose through the ranks to become the lead estimator.
