About the Role:

The Estimator / Purchasing Coordinator will play a critical supporting role in our construction procurement process.

Responsibilities:

  • Bid Management:

  • Proactively follow up with subcontractors to ensure timely bid submissions.
  • Maintain a bid log for each project and assist in compiling bid comparisons for review by senior staff.

  • Purchase Order Administration:
  • Create, issue, and track purchase orders (POs) and work orders in coordination with project schedules.
  • Verify cost codes and ensure all POs align with approved budgets and scopes.
  • Assist with job start packages by coordinating PO execution and contract documentation.

  • Subcontractor Compliance:
  • Collect, review, and track all subcontractor onboarding documentation, including W-9s, licenses, insurance certificates, and signed agreements.
  • Maintain an organized and up-to-date subcontractor/vendor database by trade and geography.

  • Systems & Reporting:
  • Support the maintenance of cost libraries, unit pricing, and standard scope templates across all projects.
  • Coordinate with construction, estimating, and accounting teams to ensure cost alignment and proper tracking of job-level expenditures.
  • Assist with invoice matching and PO reconciliation in support of monthly construction draws.

Qualifications:

  • 1–3 years of experience in construction purchasing, estimating, or project administration (homebuilding experience preferred).
  • Working knowledge of construction scopes and vendor coordination.
  • Proficient in Microsoft Excel and/or Google Sheets; familiarity with PO/ERP systems (e.g., HomebuilderONE, Sage, BuildPro) is a plus.
  • Strong organizational skills and attention to detail.
  • Bilingual (English/Spanish) preferred.

Why Join Bluenest?

  • Be part of a mission-driven team delivering homes for working families.
  • Gain exposure to all phases of residential construction and development.
  • Work in a collaborative environment with real growth potential as the company expands.
