Estimator Jobs in Pennsylvania

An Estimator in the sales industry is responsible for predicting the cost of a product, service, or project. Their role involves analyzing various factors such as materials, labor, location, duration of the project, and other variables that might affect the total cost. They may also be expected to negotiate with suppliers and subcontractors to achieve the most cost-effective solution. They play a critical role in helping their company to make informed decisions, plan for the future, and maintain competitiveness in the marketplace.

A good Estimator should possess strong analytical and mathematical skills, excellent communication and negotiation abilities, and a keen eye for detail. They should also have a thorough understanding of the sales process and the ability to work under pressure to meet deadlines. Certifications such as the Certified Professional Estimator (CPE) or Certified Cost Professional (CCP) can add credibility and demonstrate a high level of competence in the field. Previous job roles that can lead to becoming an Estimator include positions such as Junior Estimator, Cost Analyst or Sales Representative.
