The ideal candidate has a strong background in plumbing construction and the ability to manage project teams, control costs, maintain schedules, and ensure successful project delivery.

This role requires hands-on project ownership, strong technical knowledge of plumbing systems, and the ability to coordinate field operations, subcontractors, vendors, and client relationships while maintaining quality, safety, and profitability.

Responsibilities

  • Plan, schedule, budget, and manage commercial plumbing and process piping projects from preconstruction through completion.
  • Oversee field crews, subcontractors, and vendors to maintain productivity, installation quality, jobsite safety, and project schedules.
  • Review construction drawings, specifications, submittals, RFIs, and change orders to identify and resolve technical issues and scope discrepancies.
  • Coordinate procurement, material deliveries, equipment, and field resources to support project execution.
  • Monitor project budgets, job costs, billing, and change orders to maintain financial performance and profitability.
  • Work closely with general contractors, engineers, clients, and inspectors to resolve project challenges and maintain effective communication.
  • Lead project meetings and monitor progress against established schedules, budgets, and milestones.
  • Coordinate inspections, system commissioning, punch lists, and final project closeout to ensure all contractual requirements are met.
  • Identify potential project risks and implement solutions to prevent delays, cost overruns, and disruptions to field operations.

Requirements

  • Demonstrated experience managing commercial plumbing and/or process piping projects.
  • Previous experience working for a plumbing contractor, mechanical contractor, or MEP subcontractor.

  • Experience managing project schedules, budgets, procurement, RFIs, submittals, change orders, and subcontractors.
  • Ability to take full ownership of projects from preconstruction through final completion.
  • Strong leadership, communication, problem-solving, and client relationship management skills.
  • Ability to coordinate multiple project activities while maintaining schedule and budget commitments.

Important Qualification: Direct project management experience in commercial or industrial plumbing construction is required. Candidates with residential-only experience or backgrounds limited to MEP coordination or administrative support will not qualify.

Benefits
