About Universal Electrical Service, Inc.

Founded in 1982, Universal Electrical Service, Inc. provides commercial and industrial electrical contracting services throughout multiple industries. The company specializes in equipment installation and relocation, power distribution, manufacturing facilities, food and beverage processing, pharmaceutical facilities, chemical plants, and material handling systems while maintaining a strong commitment to quality, safety, and dependability. 
 

Position Summary

Universal Electrical Service is seeking an experienced Electrical Project Manager / Estimator with a strong commercial electrical background and, ideally, previous field experience. This position combines estimating, project management, client communication, and project coordination.

Key Responsibilities

  • Prepare accurate electrical estimates, bids, and proposals for commercial projects.
  • Perform detailed material and labor takeoffs from plans and specifications.
  • Review project scope, drawings, specifications, and contract documents.
  • Develop project budgets, schedules, and cost projections.
  • Coordinate with customers, general contractors, vendors, subcontractors, and field personnel.
  • Manage projects from estimating through completion.
  • Review change orders, RFIs, submittals, and project documentation.
  • Assist with procurement, material pricing, and project forecasting.
  • Maintain strong communication with field leadership and project stakeholders.
  • Identify potential project risks, scope gaps, and cost issues.

Ideal Candidate

  • 5–7+ years of electrical estimating experience
  • Procore and/or Accubid
  • Strong commercial electrical construction experience
  • Previous field experience strongly preferred — Journeyman, Lead, Foreman, General Foreman, or Superintendent background
  • Ability to read and interpret electrical plans and specifications
  • Strong understanding of electrical materials, installation methods, and labor requirements
  • Experience with Bluebeam and estimating/takeoff software
  • Strong knowledge of electrical construction and project sequencing
  • Excellent organizational and communication skills
  • Ability to manage multiple projects and deadlines

What Makes This Role Different

We're particularly interested in candidates who have actually worked in the field and transitioned into estimating/project management.

Someone who understands what it takes to install the work—not just price it—can bring significant value to this position.

Compensation & Benefits

  • Competitive salary based on experience
  • Overtime opportunities, as applicable
  • Health, dental & vision insurance
  • 401(k) with company match
  • Paid holidays and vacation
  • Company-provided training and career advancement opportunities
  • Professional, growing electrical contracting environment

UES is looking for someone who can bridge the gap between the office and the field.
