Role Overview

The MEP Project Manager is responsible for driving and managing project-based sales opportunities across mechanical, electrical, and plumbing (MEP) scopes, with a focus on new construction, design-build projects, and turnaround/tenant improvement work. This role blends front-end project sales and client development with hands-on project leadership, ensuring projects are sold, planned, and executed in a manner that delivers customer satisfaction and meets or exceeds targeted profitability. This role requires close coordination with estimating, operations, engineering, and field leadership to ensure seamless transition from awarded work through project closeout.


Key Responsibilities

Project Sales & Client Development

  • Lead project-based sales efforts for MEP construction, design-build, and tenant improvement projects.
  • Develop and maintain relationships with owners, developers, general contractors, facility managers, and design partners.
  • Participate in preconstruction discussions, scope development, and early-stage project planning.
  • Support pursuit strategies, bid reviews, and proposal alignment with estimating teams.
  • Represent the company in client meetings, project interviews, and site walks.

Project Planning & Execution

  • Conduct project kickoff and “head start” meetings with estimators to acquire all relevant project information.
  • Review project proposals, drawings, and contracts to determine scope, schedule, staffing requirements, and budget constraints.
  • Finalize work order budgets and ensure alignment with original estimates.
  • Schedule and facilitate turnover meetings for each awarded project.
  • Review contracts for execution approval, with attention to scope, schedule requirements, and liquidated damages.
  • Perform equipment buyouts and oversee procurement of all project equipment and materials.
  • Write and manage subcontracts for scopes such as controls, insulation, balancing, and water treatment as required.
  • Coordinate preparation and submission of RFIs to clarify scope gaps or conflicts.
  • Prepare, price, and submit all change orders in coordination with operations and estimating.
  • Oversee the procurement, assembly, and approval of submittals in conjunction with the Project Coordinator.

Financial Management & Reporting

  • Prepare monthly work-in-progress projections.
  • Develop and manage schedules of values for each project, coordinating with superintendents and foremen to accurately project labor and material through billing cycles.
  • Monitor project costs, labor productivity, and material usage to ensure financial performance meets targets.
  • Support accurate and timely project billing.

Project Closeout & Retention

  • Manage project closeout activities, ensuring all documentation, vendor closeouts, and subcontractor requirements are completed in advance of project completion.
  • Track and resolve punch list items promptly and document completion.
  • Confirm startup, balancing, owner training, and commissioning activities are completed.
  • Submit retention billing requests upon completion of closeout milestones.
  • Verify completion dates and document delays outside of company control during closeout.


Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s degree from a four-year college or university, or equivalent combination of education and experience.
  • Four to six years of related experience in MEP project sales, project management, or construction leadership.
  • HVAC and/or mechanical project experience required; exposure to electrical and plumbing scopes strongly preferred.
  • Experience supporting new construction, design-build, and tenant improvement projects.
  • Strong understanding of MEP systems, construction contracts, and project financial controls.
  • Ability to manage multiple projects and sales pursuits simultaneously.
  • Strong communication, organizational, and client-facing skills.
  • Willingness to travel regionally to project sites and customer locations.

Compensation & Benefits

  • Paid Time Off (PTO).
  • 8 paid holidays.
  • Medical, dental, and vision coverage options.
  • Short-term and long-term disability coverage.
  • 401(k) plan.
