Your Impact Starts Here 

Graham is actively recruiting a Student Estimator to support the Buildings Division.

With guidance from senior estimators, the role assists with determining project scopes, quantity take‑offs, costing, and managing deadlines, while developing the ability to interpret tender documents, collaborate with internal teams, and communicate effectively with trade partners. 

This role represents an opportunity to join for an initial Fall Co-op term (4-months) while also entering consideration for a potential full time Jr Estimating role in Spring of 2027. Thus, students currently enrolled in an Engineering, Architecture or Construction Management program with both an interest in Estimating and a projected graduation date in Spring of 2027 will be ideal for this opportunity.
