Estimator - Commercial TI + Multifamily - Campbell

About Our Client

They take tremendous pride in their work and are committed to safety, commitment, integrity, collaboration, and improvement.

In terms of their culture, they are a smaller General Contractor (about 50 people) and are very family-oriented. They care about office culture and bringing on people who wish to be there long-term. They would describe themselves as laid back but professional; you can have one-on-one conversations with higher-ups (e.g. VP) whenever you want and leadership is very approachable.

They believe in showing integrity, dedication, collaboration, and fairness in all that they do. From day one, they have continued to model their company around the principle that their work should reflect these beliefs and values.
