Chief Estimator - Electrical Construction

ELCCO Inc. is an industry-leading electrical contractor dedicated to creating exceptional experiences for our employees, customers, and communities. We believe that when our people thrive, our projects and our island do too. As a proud recipient of Hawaii’s Best Places to Work award, we take pride in being an employer of choice — where teamwork, growth, and purpose power everything we do.

We are seeking a strategic, high-impact leader to oversee our preconstruction and estimating function. This is more than a Chief Estimator role — it is an opportunity to influence how we pursue work, build teams, protect margins, and support long-term company growth.

We are looking for someone who combines deep design/build and electrical estimating expertise with leadership, business acumen, and the ability to build scalable systems and processes.
What You’ll Lead

• Lead ELCCO’s estimating and preconstruction function
• Drive bid strategy, pricing quality, and backlog discipline
• Partner closely with Operations, Project Management, and Business Development
• Develop estimating standards, tools, and scalable processes
• Mentor and develop estimators and preconstruction staff
• Provide leadership insight into market trends, risk, and opportunity selection
• Improve estimating systems, cost databases, and operational alignment

What We’re Looking For

• Deep experience in electrical estimating and preconstruction
• Trusted partner with GC & facility clients
• Proven leadership and team development capability
• Strong judgment in pricing, risk, and prioritization
• Ability to build systems — not just produce estimates
• Strong communication and cross-functional leadership skills
• Strategic mindset with strong business acumen

Why ELCCO
At ELCCO, you’re not stepping into a corporate machine — you’re joining one of Hawaii’s premier electrical contractors at a pivotal stage of growth. We are building the infrastructure, systems, and leadership team that will define the next generation of our company, and this role will have a direct seat at that table.
This is an opportunity to lead meaningful, complex work in one of the most unique markets in the country while helping shape the future of a respected and growing organization.

Why Maui
Living in Maui offers a lifestyle where few places can match. Beyond the natural beauty, Maui provides a strong sense of community, year-round outdoor living, and a pace of life that allows people to thrive personally and professionally.
At ELCCO, we believe exceptional people should not have to choose between meaningful work and an exceptional lifestyle — here, you can have both.
