HVAC Manager

Direct Reports: HVAC Service Technicians, Maintenance Technicians, Apprentices, Team Leads (as assigned) Salary: $90,000–$120,000 + bonus Position Summary The HVAC Service Manager leads a large team of service technicians, balancing customer experience, employee development, operational excellence, and financial performance. This role is the central hub of the service department — the person who keeps things moving when priorities shift, information is incomplete, and competing demands need to be sorted out in real time.

We're not looking for a manager who simply directs work. We're looking for a leader who earns trust quickly, develops people, and drives results through relationships, accountability, and sound business judgment — someone who can hold both the customer experience and the long-term health of the business in mind at the same time.
