  • Oversee project budgets, cost tracking, forecasting, and financial reporting.
  • Coordinate all aspects of mechanical scopes including HVAC, plumbing, piping, and process systems.
  • Lead subcontractor procurement, scope development, and contract administration.
  • Develop and maintain project schedules, ensuring milestones and deadlines are achieved.
  • Collaborate with engineering, detailing, and BIM teams to ensure constructability and coordination.
  • Support design-build and design-assist efforts, providing input on system design, cost, and constructability.
  • Work closely with field superintendents to monitor progress, productivity, and jobsite issues.
  • Manage project documentation including RFIs, submittals, change orders, and project logs.
  • Identify risks and implement solutions to maintain project performance and schedule.
  • Lead project meetings with clients, architects, engineers, and internal teams.
  • Oversee project closeout including punch lists, commissioning, and final documentation.
Qualifications
  • 5–10+ years of experience working as a Project Manager in mechanical construction.
  • Experience managing projects involving HVAC systems, piping, plumbing, or process systems.
  • Background working for a mechanical contractor or general contractor with strong MEP experience.
  • Strong understanding of construction documents, specifications, and mechanical systems.
  • Experience managing project budgets, schedules, and subcontractors.
  • Ability to read and interpret mechanical drawings, schematics, and specifications.
  • Strong leadership, communication, and problem-solving skills.
  • Ability to manage multiple projects in a fast-paced environment.
Preferred Qualifications
  • Experience working on complex or large-scale projects such as healthcare facilities, high-rises, industrial plants, or institutional buildings.
  • Familiarity with BIM/VDC coordination and prefabrication strategies to improve project efficiency and reduce installation time.
  • Experience with Lean construction practices and value engineering.
  • Proficiency with project management tools such as Procore, Bluebeam, Microsoft Project, or Primavera.
  • Bachelor’s degree in Construction Management, Mechanical Engineering, or a related field.
