Estimating Manager

COMPANY OVERVIEW

Blue Energy is transforming how nuclear power gets built. Instead of constructing each plant on-site from scratch - a process that takes 10-15 years and is too expensive and unpredictable to finance - we build our plants like ships: in a factory, on an assembly line, then transport and assemble them at the site. This cuts costs by over 60% and brings plants online in just three years. We also pair natural gas with nuclear at our sites, so customers can start receiving power from gas turbines right away and then switch over to clean nuclear power once it comes online - getting energy to the grid faster while nuclear is being built. Our mission is to make nuclear energy abundant, affordable, and repeatable at global scale. We use proven, already-approved reactor designs and work with existing nuclear and industrial sites, giving us a faster path to regulatory approval. By manufacturing this way, we put nuclear power on the same cost-reduction curve that has made wind, solar, and batteries cheaper every year.

Role Summary

The Estimating Manager is responsible for managing estimating teams and subcontractors for developing, validating, and maintaining capital cost estimates for major industrial, power generation, infrastructure, or energy projects on behalf of the owner. This position may provide independent estimate oversight throughout project development, engineering, procurement, construction, and commissioning phases.

The role serves as the owner's primary estimating authority and is responsible for estimate governance, benchmarking, contractor estimate validation, risk-based cost forecasting, scope development support, and executive cost reporting.
