Estimator/project Manager Required - Edmonton, Canada - General Body and Equipment

Description

We need a new Darrell
Our Darrell is retiring so we need a new one. It's okay if your name is not Darrell, but we will need you to be a detail oriented, problem solving, customer service dynamo in order to fill his gigantic motorcycle boots

General Body & Equipment is a custom work truck manufacturer located in Edmonton, and in our custom world of sales, the kind of person we need to fill the hole Darrell is leaving behind must have these kinds of qualities:

• Organized
• Detail oriented (no detail is too small)
• Creative problem solver
• Excellent communicator
• Customer service driven
• Works well in a team environment
• Proficient with the computer and able to navigate their way through most common office programs

We are looking for an
Estimator/Project Manager to join our sales team. You might also call this role an Inside Salesperson.

Your day to day as the _
"Estimator"_ would involve:

• Working with the Outside Salespeople on projects that our customers have asked us to build for them, creating the detailed specifications for those projects,
• Working with manufacturing department supervisors and designers within the company to estimate the cost of those projects, and then converting those estimated costs into formal quotations for the customers.

But that's not all, after the customer awards us that job that you just quoted, you put on the other hat that your job requires and become the _
"Project Manager" _for that project


Which means:

• You must create a shopping list for our purchasers to start buying the required materials,
• You need to work with the designers to get the manufacturing drawings just right,
• You need to monitor and inspect the project for accuracy throughout the manufacturing process and,
• You need to keep your outside sales partner up to date at every step along the way.

At any given time, you are going to have several estimates on your to-do pile and several projects on the go in the plant, so you need to be organized and able to change hats several times throughout the day, and because most of the work we do is custom, no two days in this job are the same.

Trust us, you will not be bored.

Still interested? Here is what you would get from General if you can fill those boots:

• Competitive Base salary with a team based, quarterly bonus package (if you're good enough to fill Darrell's boots, this is a six-figure package)
• Health and Dental benefits package that will keep your smile looking great and your back feeling good
• Chance to participate in our employee RSP program that includes some matching contributions from the company to help you retire earlier
• Sales, Estimating or Project Management Experience
• College Diploma or University Degree in Business
• Manufacturing experience
• Customer Service experience
• Design Experience
• Heavy Duty Mechanical experience

We will only contact those selected for interviews.
