Who We Are
Double L is a group of construction companies with different specialties but one purpose: building the future.
What We're Looking For
An Estimator! Is it you? If you said yes, hit that "apply" button. If you said no, we're done here.
Actually if you said anything out loud, it's now weird.
Ok seriously, we are looking for a detail-oriented and proactive estimator to support our growing construction companies. This role is responsible for the bid lifecycle - from identifying opportunities and evaluating project feasibility to preparing accurate estimates, submitting bids, and following up with key stakeholders.
We've got a lot going on - drywall, acoustic ceilings, fireproofing, lightweight concrete, kitting, and plastering are all in our current repertoire and that list will continue to grow. Sound fun?
What We Offer
When you interview for a job, it's a two-way street. While you're trying to put your best foot forward, we're doing the same. We are proud to offer an excellent compensation & benefits package including union-equivalent health insurance, dental insurance, VSP, paid time off (including paid parental leave after 1 year of service!), bonus potential, 401k with company contributions, weekly pay, company-paid life and disability insurance, optional employee-paid additional life insurance for employees, their spouses, and children... I could go on, but I'm tired of typing.
