Job Description As a Construction Foreman, you'll run concrete construction projects from footings to finishes, working hands-on with your crew while traveling 100% of the time to project sites nationwide. You'll keep the job moving, ensure safety and quality, and be the go-to leader on site—actively pouring, forming, finishing, and leading by example during long days and night pours. Responsibilities • Lead and work alongside concrete crews, actively engaging in hands-on tasks (formwork, rebar, pouring, finishing, layout). • Perform physical labor daily, including lifting up to 80 pounds. • Keep projects on schedule and within budget across multiple U.S. sites. • Enforce ADA, OSHA, and MSHA safety standards—lead by example, every shift. • Delegate tasks to crew members while jumping in wherever needed. • Communicate daily with the Superintendent, subcontractors, and clients. • Manage materials, tools, and equipment in the field. • Adapt to aggressive day-to-night schedules, weather extremes, and constant travel.

Location: Wichita, KS (Full-time in-office) Compensation: $75,000 – $95,000 + Performance Bonuses (DOE) About Us Parrent LLC / Civil Construction is a fast-paced, family-owned commercial contractor transitioning from specialty sub-work to a General Contractor for national retail brands like Walmart. We are at a turning point—we have the projects, we have the team, and we are now seeking an Estimator who wants to take ownership of our bidding department. The Role This isn't a role for someone who just wants to enter data. We are looking for a “Department Builder.” You will be responsible for the accuracy, strategy, and growth of our estimating function. As we take on more General Contracting projects, you will be on the ground floor, helping us standardize how we bid, how we track profit, and how we win. What You Will Own: • Bidding & Takeoffs: Performing accurate quantity takeoffs using PlanSwift (or your preferred software) to deliver competitive, profitable bids. • Systems Implementation: You won't just “do” bids; you'll help us build the bidding department. You'll develop templates, refine our estimating database, and create processes that make us faster and more precise. • Strategy & Analysis: Working closely with our Project Management & Superintendent team (including our Walmart retail experts) to finalize competitive proposals, ensure all scope items are covered, and identify potential profit leaks before the shovel hits the dirt. • Department Scaling: As we grow, this role will evolve into a Senior Estimator position where you will lead and mentor junior estimators. • Networking: Building relationships with vendors, suppliers, and (eventually) your own client base to ensure our pipelines stay full. Who You Are: • Hungry & Tech-Savvy: You have a solid estimating foundation but feel “stuck” in your current role. You want to see the direct impact of your bids on the company's bottom line. • Detail Driven: You understand that one missed line item on a takeoff is a disaster. You take pride in “Plan-Perfect” bids. • A Builder: You are looking for a home, not a stopover. You want a place where your input on how to estimate matters. • Team Player: You enjoy working with field superintendents and project managers to make sure what we bid is actually buildable in the real world. Required Experience & Skills: • 5+ years of commercial construction estimating experience. • Proficiency in on-screen takeoff software (PlanSwift experience is a plus, but if you have a workflow you love, we're open to it). • Understanding of commercial/retail construction scope (MEP, Millwork, Carpentry, Concrete, and general retail remodels). • Strong communication skills—you'll be working directly with owners, vendors, and GCs. Compensation & Benefits: • Base Salary: $75,000 – $95,000 DOE. • Performance Bonuses: Tied to win-rate, bid accuracy, and profitability of projects you bid. • Full Benefits: Health, Dental, & Vision. • 2 Weeks PTO + Paid Holidays. Why Apply? If you are looking to grow and want to be a partner in building a high-growth GC business, we want to talk to you. You'll have the autonomy to build this department the right way, with the mentorship of construction veterans who have spent 20+ years on the national retail circuit. How to Apply: Please submit your resume and a brief note on the most complex or successful project you have bid in the last three years. Employment Type: Full Time Years Experience: 5 - 10 years Salary: $75,000 - $95,000 Annual Bonus/Commission: Yes
