    • Ensure that estimates reflect current costs and that the costing database is kept up to date.
    • Review completed projects vs. the estimates for improvement of the accuracy of future estimates.
    • Usage of Opportunity for Improvement (OFI) procedures.
    • May act as a project manager on small projects, as required.
    • Interact effectively within all levels of the WhiteWater team and external contacts relating to the Waterparks and Attractions business units and Project Services.
    • Execute responsibilities according to lawful and ethical standards.
    • Contributes to a culture of development/sustenance of Continuous Improvement and Lean philosophies.
    • Respect for people through positive communication, consideration and collaborative relationships.
    • Maintain and follow best practices for operations including Customer Service, Quality, Lean Management and Safety.
    • Define and align goals with departmental goals.

    Qualifications & Experience

    • Math, statistics and analyst education and experience is highly valuable.
    • An Engineering, Project Management, Quantity Surveying or Accounting related degree and/or relevant experience would be an asset.
    • Minimum of 5 years of relevant experience in construction or manufacturing estimating is preferred.
    • Able to create Bills of Materials and take-offs.
    • Able to read and interpret construction/engineering drawings.
    • Able to create estimates under pressure that are accurate and reflect the company's costs, using any and all information provided.
    • Experience with contract management would be an asset.
    • Must be comfortable with extensive use of Excel in creating and interpreting spreadsheets as well as MS Project; an understanding of Timberline (or similar pricing package) would be an asset.
    • Able to meet tight deadlines in a fast-paced, fun, and professional environment
