Job Description

CLIENT SUMMARY

Genovesi Construction is a family-founded, heavy civil construction company firm based in Glastonbury, CT. Since transitioning from residential home building to civil site work in 2012, the company has grown from 5 to over 55 team members, becoming a trusted partner on some of Connecticut’s largest highway and drainage projects.

With a reputation for delivering quality work, Genovesi specializes in public infrastructure projects, focusing 100% of its current portfolio on public civil utility and site development work. The team recently completed over 46,000 linear feet of drainage and water pipe installation—equivalent to 8.5 miles—earning them accolades and strong recognition in the Connecticut market.

What sets Genovesi apart is their culture of compassion—for the quality of work they deliver, for their clients, and especially for their people. The leadership team believes in treating everyone with respect, empowering field crews, and cultivating a team environment where ideas are welcomed and individuals are supported. As a growing company, they embrace innovation, invest in technology, and provide strong union benefits to their field staff, all while fostering a humble, collaborative atmosphere.

POSITION OBJECTIVE

As the company continues to win larger projects and manage long-term contracts, Genovesi is hiring a full-time Civil Estimator to join the team. This individual will own the bid process and play a key role in helping the company maintain a healthy backlog of work. This position will work directly with Vincent Genovesi (Operations Manager), project managers, and superintendents to evaluate new opportunities, develop cost estimates, and manage project handoffs.

Genovesi is looking for someone who thrives in a fast-paced, team-oriented environment and wants to be a key contributor during an exciting growth season. This is an opportunity to make a significant impact on a growing, values-driven company that is committed to long-term success.
