DRIVE PROJECT BEFORE THEY BREAK GROUND
Osborne is seeking a proactive, detail-driven
Bid Coordinator
to support our estimating team in securing competitive subcontractor and vendor participation on commercial construction projects.
This is more than a general administrative role. We're looking for someone who is comfortable making outbound calls, building relationships with subcontractors, and keeping multiple bid opportunities organized and moving forward.
This role requires experience in construction, estimating support, or a project-based environment. Candidates without relevant experience may not be considered. About Us Osborne is a Topeka, Kansas-based commercial general contractor proudly celebrating 50 years of building across the country.
We specialize in design-build commercial construction, facilities maintenance, and electrical infrastructure. With a strong foundation built on integrity, dependability, and quality, we're known for doing what's right--every time. Our team is made up of smart, humble professionals who value accountability, consistent execution, and long-term partnerships.
Whether in the field or behind the scenes, we take pride in delivering results that stand the test of time.
