Our portfolio includes some of Toronto's most prestigious residential properties, and our reputation is built on delivering exceptional results on time and on budget.
The Opportunity
We're expanding our operations and seeking an experienced Quantity Surveyor/Estimator to join our team.

• Analyze project scope and identify potential issues or cost drivers early in the estimation process
• Support multi-discipline projects including structural, mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and finish work
• Maintain accurate records of estimates, revisions, and project documentation
• Collaborate with project managers, site supervisors, and subcontractors to refine estimates and track actuals
• Support bid development and proposal preparation for new projects
Required Qualifications
• Minimum 5 years of professional estimating and quantity surveying experience in North America
• Strong knowledge of Ontario Building Code (OBC) and relevant construction standards
• Multi-discipline expertise across residential construction including structural, mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and finish trades
• Proficiency with digital takeoff and estimating software (e.g., Bluebeam, PlanSwift, or equivalent)
• Ability to read and interpret architectural, structural, mechanical, and electrical drawings
• Strong attention to detail and accuracy in quantifying and costing projects
• Excellent organizational and time management skills, with ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously
• Professional communication skills and ability to collaborate effectively with diverse teams
Preferred Qualifications
• Experience in luxury or high-end residential renovation and construction
• Knowledge of condo-specific renovation challenges and requirements
• Certification or formal training in quantity surveying or construction estimating
• Experience with construction management software (Planswift, Square takeoff, Clear Estimates & Buildertrend.)
What We Offer
• Competitive salary commensurate with experience
• Opportunity to work on high-profile luxury residential projects
• Supportive team environment with clear growth potential
• Flexible work arrangements and work-life balance
How to Apply
Interested candidates are invited to submit the following:
• Current resume/CV
• Cover letter describing your relevant experience
• Portfolio or examples of past estimates and takeoff work (if available)
