The Opportunity

HeatherDaniel International (HDi), a construction recruitment specialist, is representing a premier national electrical construction firm that is expanding its teams across multiple regional branch footprints. Backed by the financial strength of a major parent corporation, the organisation couples job stability with a people-first culture of continuous learning.

They are seeking growth-minded professionals at all experience levels who want a long-term career path supported by corporate resources, premium benefits and robust professional-development programmes. Two families of roles are open: electrical / preconstruction cost estimators, and project managers and assistant project managers at all levels.

Key Responsibilities

  • Electrical estimators / preconstruction cost estimators (Dallas / Sunnyvale, TX): Quantify historical cost data, conduct detailed take-offs and prepare comprehensive budget estimates for large-scale commercial, industrial and mission-critical data-center projects, using Accubid, LiveCount and a strong command of the National Electrical Code (NEC).
  • Project managers and assistant project managers (Dallas, TX; Charlotte, NC; Richmond, VA): Drive project flow safely from preconstruction through final closeout, using Bluebeam, software-driven project tracking (for example MS Project) and change-order management systems. Entry-level and assistant roles receive structured onboarding so they can support senior managers on active job sites. Senior roles require a proven track record of managing multi-million-dollar budgets, fast-paced field crews and sophisticated client relations.

Requirements

  • Estimators: Technical mastery of Accubid, LiveCount and the National Electrical Code (NEC), with a focus on take-offs and budget estimates for commercial, industrial and mission-critical data-center work in Dallas / Sunnyvale, Texas.
  • Project managers: Technical mastery of Bluebeam, software-driven project tracking (for example MS Project) and change-order management systems, for seats in Dallas, Charlotte or Richmond. Senior candidates need a proven record with multi-million-dollar budgets, field crews and client relations; entry-level and assistant candidates are supported through structured onboarding.

Compensation & Benefits

  • Pay: Highly competitive base salaries.
  • Benefits: Exceptional medical and dental plans, comprehensive 401(k) retirement structures and formal tuition-assistance programmes.
  • Culture: A collaborative culture that emphasises workforce inclusivity, regular employee-engagement events, meaningful partnership with local organisations, and thorough onboarding so entry-level personnel are supported.

Why candidates choose HDi

We start with you, not with a requisition to fill. The people we place today are often the clients who hire us tomorrow. That only works if we treat the first conversation with care.

We know what a Quantity Surveyor is. We work in verticals — cost, project advisory, claims and dispute, built-environment leadership, and data center and mission-critical programmes — not as a generalist shop that learns your job from a Wikipedia page.

We are honest about salary and fit, even when the answer is no. We do not mailshot your curriculum vitae. We do not share it without your consent. That promise is written in full on our Candidate Charter.

We stay with you from the first call through interview, offer, resignation and start.

A major statewide consultancy in the United States, headquartered in New York, has hired us on a retainer.

We are working with a major international consultancy and have placed nearly forty people with them this year.

Our Candidate Charter: You are a person, not a placement. We are honest on salary and fit. Your curriculum vitae is never shared without your consent. We reply, even when there is no update. We stay with you through the whole move.
