As a Project Executive you will lead large, complex mechanical/HVAC portfolios and serve as the senior client-facing leader responsible for overall project performance, margin, and relationship development. You’ll oversee multiple project teams, set strategic direction for delivery and resource allocation, and drive continuous improvement in safety, quality, and operational efficiency. This role combines executive-level client engagement and business development with hands-on stewardship of financials, risk, and program execution across commercial, data center, healthcare, and industrial workstreams.

Key responsibilities:
  • Own project portfolio performance: financial outcomes, schedule adherence, risk mitigation, and client satisfaction.
  • Serve as primary executive contact for clients and key stakeholders; lead high-level coordination with owners, design teams, and partners.
  • Provide oversight and mentorship to Project Managers, Senior Project Managers, and project teams to ensure consistent delivery and professional development.
  • Establish and enforce standards for project controls, forecasting, change management, and contract compliance.
  • Champion LEAN construction, prefabrication, and productivity initiatives to improve cost, quality, and schedule outcomes.
  • Drive business development support, pursue strategic opportunities, and contribute to long-term market growth strategies.
Qualifications:
  • Bachelor’s degree in Construction Management, Mechanical Engineering, Business, or related field; advanced degree preferred.
  • 12+ years of progressive mechanical/MEP construction experience with proven success managing large, complex projects and portfolios.
  • Demonstrated executive-level client relationship and business development skills.
  • Strong financial acumen: budgeting, forecasting, margin protection, and risk management.
  • Track record of leading and developing high-performing teams; excellent communication and negotiation skills.
  • Experience with Design/Build, IPD, federal, healthcare, or data center projects is a plus.
  • Commitment to safety, quality, accountability, and collaborative leadership.
