Part-Time Construction Estimating Career Coach
(Flexible, Paid Workshops + Upside)
About CourseCareers
CourseCareers is an online education platform that helps people launch new careers without a college degree or prior experience.
We partner with industry professionals to create job-focused courses that teach practical, employer-aligned skills across technology, business, construction, and the trades. Our students are career changers looking for realistic, entry-level roles — and coaching helps bridge the gap between coursework and landing the job.
About the Role
We’re looking for a part-time Construction Estimating Career Coach to support students through live workshops and optional 1:1 coaching.
This is not a traditional employment role and not a guaranteed-income position. It’s a flexible, paid opportunity best suited for construction estimating professionals who enjoy mentoring, teaching, and helping others break into the field — with upside if students choose to work with you.
How This Role Actually Works
-
You host a live, one-hour workshop (seminar-style) for students
-
You are paid $50 per workshop, plus any private coaching business you acquire
-
You may receive exclusive coaching opportunities based on performance and engagement
-
Workshops are used to provide value, answer questions, and showcase your expertise
-
If students choose to book you for 1:1 coaching, you keep the coaching revenue
-
You set your own availability and working hours
There is no requirement to convert students — workshops are paid regardless — but conversion is where the upside comes from.
Responsibilities
-
Host a live, one-hour workshop on a monthly basis
-
Answer student questions related to construction estimating and the job search
-
Share real-world insight into what entry-level estimating roles actually look like
-
Explain how estimating works in real construction environments (GCs, subs, specialty trades)
-
Discuss common tools, workflows, and expectations
-
Provide optional 1:1 coaching to students who request it
What We’re Looking For
-
3+ years of professional construction estimating experience
-
Experience estimating for GCs, subcontractors, or specialty trades (e.g. concrete, electrical, mechanical, roofing, etc.)
-
Familiarity with estimating tools such as Excel, PlanSwift, Bluebeam, ProEst, or similar software
-
Strong understanding of entry-level roles like Estimating Assistant, Junior Estimator, or Project Coordinator
-
Interest in mentoring and helping career changers
-
Strong communication and teaching ability
-
Availability at least three evenings per week, ideally Tuesday–Thursday
-
Self-starter mindset — comfortable leading workshops independently
Ideal Fit
This role is a great fit if you:
-
Enjoy teaching and mentoring
-
Want flexible, side income
-
Like the idea of being paid to teach — with optional upside
-
Don’t need guaranteed hours or full-time income
Compensation
-
$50 per one-hour workshop (One per month guaranteed)
-
Unlimited upside from 1:1 coaching sessions you convert
-
No caps, no quotas, no minimums
