  • Provide technical oversight and coordination for MEP and HVAC design, installation, testing, and commissioning activities to ensure compliance with specifications and codes.
  • Coordinate internal project teams, subcontractors, and consultants to ensure integrated delivery and resolve technical or commercial issues promptly.
  • Monitor project performance, cash flow, and profitability; prepare and present accurate forecasts, reports, and KPIs to senior management.
  • Implement and enforce quality, safety, and compliance programs on-site and across project activities.
  • Mentor and develop project managers, superintendents, and site personnel to build capability and promote best practices.
  • Drive continuous improvement initiatives, lessons learned, and risk mitigation strategies to optimize project outcomes.

Qualifications

  • Bachelors degree in Mechanical/Electrical Engineering, Construction Management, or related field (or equivalent experience).
  • 10+ years of progressive experience in commercial construction with proven experience as a Project Executive, Senior Project Manager, or similar role managing MEP/HVAC projects.
  • Strong technical knowledge of mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and piping systems, including design, installation, testing, and commissioning.
  • Demonstrated success in sales and commercial negotiation, with experience pursuing and securing large commercial contracts and managing client expectations.
  • Proven track record of delivering complex projects on schedule and within budget, with solid financial acumen and experience managing project budgets and forecasts.
  • Excellent leadership, communication, and stakeholder management skills with the ability to influence at all levels.
  • Familiarity with construction codes, permits, regulatory requirements, and safety standards relevant to MEP and HVAC work.
  • Proficiency with project management tools, estimating software, and Microsoft Office; experience with BIM is a plus.
