How our sorting works

The order in which job vacancies are displayed is determined by a composite score based on the following factors:

  • Keyword Relevance: How well your search terms match the vacancy details. We prioritize matches found in the job title, followed by job requirements, location names, and educational levels. Matches within general employer information or the organization's name carry a lower weight.
  • Commercial Prioritization (Premium Jobs): Vacancies paid for by employers ('Premium' or 'Sponsored') receive a ranking boost and will appear higher in the search results.
  • Recency (Date Relevance): Newer vacancies are prioritized. The relevance score of a vacancy is reduced by half once the posting is older than 30 days.
  • Proximity (Distance Relevance): Vacancies located closer to your search location are ranked higher. For vacancies located more than 30 km from the search center, the relevance score is halved.
The final ranking is established by multiplying all these individual factors to calculate the total relevance score.

    Job description

    🚨 CHIEF ESTIMATOR – INFRASTRUCTURE


    📍 Mississauga (Toronto), Canada

    💰 Executive-Level Salary + Bonus + Equity (Employee-Owned)

    ✈️ Full VISA Sponsorship + Relocation



    This is not just estimating.

    This is where strategy wins projects.


    If you’ve led bids on major infrastructure…

    this is your opportunity to step into a role where you shape billion-dollar outcomes.



    Why Canada — And Why Now?


    Because infrastructure is moving at scale.


    • Massive investment across transit, highways, bridges & airports

    • Long-term, government-backed pipelines

    • Stability + world-class lifestyle

    • A country that supports leaders and families relocating long-term


    This is timing. And it’s big.



    🏗️ The Opportunity


    A Tier 1, employee-owned contractor is expanding its Infrastructure division and hiring a Chief Estimator to lead from the front.


    You’ll report directly to the Pre-Construction Director and take ownership of:


    • Major transit & transportation bids

    • High-value infrastructure pursuits

    • Estimating strategy across multiple large-scale projects


    This is not a back-office role.

    You are driving how projects are won.



    🔥 What You’ll Be Leading


    • Roads, highways & interchanges

    • Bridges & major structures

    • LRT / BRT transit systems

    • Airports & large infrastructure programs



    ⚙️ What You’ll Own


    • Full oversight of pre-construction & estimating performance

    • Bid strategy, risk analysis & cost optimisation

    • Conceptual estimating → tender submission

    • Constructability input & innovation strategies

    • Leadership of high-performing estimating teams

    • Stakeholder engagement across clients, consultants & partners



    🎯 Who This Is For


    ✔️ 20+ years across estimating + construction delivery

    ✔️ Proven leadership on $100M+ infrastructure projects

    ✔️ Strong experience in Design-Build / CM / IPD models

    ✔️ Ability to lead teams, mentor talent & drive performance

    ✔️ Commercially sharp — you understand how to win work profitably

    ✔️ Comfortable operating at senior leadership level



    ⚡ Why This Role Stands Out


    💰 Executive compensation + bonus + ownership (shares)

    📈 Long-term pipeline of major infrastructure work

    🌍 Full relocation support for you & your family

    🏗️ A role where your decisions directly impact multi-million/billion-dollar outcomes



    💬 If you’ve reached the top of estimating — this is the next level.



    • Relocate. Lead. Win the work that builds nations.
