Our approach

Coordination that keeps bids organized

We recruit Estimating Coordinators, bid coordinators and proposal support professionals for contractors and construction managers. We define bid volume, team structure, document responsibilities and the coordinator's relationship with estimators and business development.

Our approach

Estimating workflow and document skills

Candidate discussions cover bid invitations, plan distribution, addenda tracking, subcontractor outreach, quote organization, deadline management and proposal assembly. We clarify the systems used and how the coordinator supports takeoffs and estimate reviews without conflating administrative coordination with estimator responsibility.

Our approach

Direct outreach and candidate coverage

Our construction network and direct outreach reach estimating support professionals who may not be actively seeking a move. We consider local candidates and candidates willing to travel 100% when needed, confirming office and project team expectations before introductions.

Good questions

Frequently asked questions.

What is the difference between an Estimating Coordinator and an Estimator?

An Estimating Coordinator generally organizes bid information and workflow, while an Estimator develops quantities, pricing and estimate analysis. Employers define duties differently, so we verify the responsibilities before searching.

Which Estimating Coordinator skills do you evaluate?

We discuss bid documentation, addenda, subcontractor communication, proposal support, deadlines and estimating systems. The employer's workflow and project mix guide candidate evaluation.

Do you recruit coordinators for specialty contractors?

Yes. We recruit for general contractors and specialty trades. We match candidates' coordination and discipline experience to the bid process and team.

Can Estimating Coordinators travel for work?

Yes. We consider local candidates and those willing to travel 100% when the position requires it. We clarify work location and travel expectations before an introduction.

Relocation and travel

Relocation Placements

Over the last few years we've filled more and more positions with candidates willing to relocate on their own, or with minimal initial relocation help from the client. We always fill with local candidates when possible. But relocation placements are a specialty of ours, and we know how to make them work for clients who are committed to filling the position.

Placement protection

12-month replacement guarantee

On standard (non-reduced) fee agreements, every placement comes with a 3-month free candidate replacement guarantee. From months 4 to 12, we'll still replace the candidate at half off. That's a full year of coverage. We've never needed to use the extended guarantee.

Extended coverage applies to eligible placements billed and paid at the full standard fee under the signed client recruiting agreement.

Three-Month Free Replacement

If a placement billed and paid at the full standard fee separates for a qualifying reason within the first three months, Construction Headhunters will conduct one replacement search for the same or substantially similar position at no additional professional recruiting fee.

Months Four Through Twelve: Half-Fee Replacement

If the hire separates during months four through twelve, the client receives one replacement at half the standard professional fee. Applies only to original placements billed and paid at the full standard fee.

Eligibility, exclusions, notification requirements, payment requirements, and replacement terms are governed by the signed client recruiting agreement.
