Job Description
Commercial Architectural Millwork Estimator | $70,000–$75,000
Do you know millwork inside and out — and have the estimating chops to back it up? Sapphire Recruitment is partnering with an established, family-owned millwork and custom cabinetry shop in Syracuse, NY to find an experienced Architectural Millwork Estimator ready to take ownership of the full bid process.
This is a role for someone who knows the millwork industry specifically. Construction estimation experience is a plus, but millwork is a different world — and our client needs someone who speaks that language fluently and isn't afraid to pick up the phone.
What You'll Be Doing • Read and interpret architectural drawings, millwork shop drawings, and blueprints to develop accurate take-offs • Build detailed pricing and budgetary proposals using estimating software and Excel • Research and price materials with precision • Follow up with potential clients on the bid process — you'll be the voice of the company, so strong communication matters • Prioritize and manage multiple estimates simultaneously in a small, collaborative team environment • Occasional CAD work a plus
What You'll Bring • 5+ years of millwork estimating experience — this is required, not preferred • Ability to read blueprints and millwork shop drawings confidently • Proficient in Excel and estimating software • Strong verbal and written communication skills — you'll be client-facing regularly • Self-motivated, organized, and reliable with a stable work history • Solid knowledge of tools, hardware, lumber, and construction materials • CAD experience a bonus
Details • Pay: $70,000–$75,000 based on experience • Schedule: Monday–Thursday 7:00am–5:30pm, Friday 7:00am–12:00pm (some flexibility available) • Location: Syracuse, NY — in-person role • Relocation assistance considered for the right candidate • Benefits include health & dental insurance, life insurance, paid vacation, paid holidays, and a retirement plan • Submit your resume to: mfgresume@hiresapphire.com
