About the Role
This role owns the handoff from signed commercial contract to commissioned system. You receive completed sales packages from our commercial sales team and translate them into executable work orders, schedules, and service plans — then drive each project through to customer sign-off.
You'll have direct authority over install technicians, fabrication, and service technicians on active commercial projects. You're not coordinating by asking nicely. You're running the job, holding the schedule, and intervening when things slip before they become customer problems.
This position reports to the Commercial Service Manager and works daily alongside our commercial sales team, service leads, and field technicians. Our commercial accounts include hospitals, dialysis clinics, surgery centers, manufacturers, and other critical-use facilities throughout the Midwest.
This role is right for someone who has run projects in a trade, service, or industrial environment — who knows what it takes to keep crews coordinated, customers informed, and jobs on schedule without constant hand-holding from above.
What You'll Own
Intake & Planning
Review every closed commercial deal before scheduling begins — confirm site specs, equipment requirements, and full installation scope
Identify gaps in the sales package early and resolve them before they create delays in the field
Scheduling & Coordination
Assign install techs, fabrication, and service technicians to jobs based on requirements, skill sets, and capacity
Stage equipment and materials ahead of job start — no crew shows up without what they need
Hold authority over tech assignments and scheduling on active commercial projects
Job Tracking
Maintain real-time visibility on all active projects
Flag delays, scope changes, and resource conflicts before they hit the customer
Drive resolution when timelines slip — don't wait for someone else to notice
Handoff Management
Own the formal transition from installation completion to ongoing service
Ensure the service team has complete documentation, site specs, and customer expectations before the project closes
Internal Communication
Keep sales informed on job status throughout the project lifecycle
Keep service informed on customer expectations and commitments made during the sales process
Absorb the friction between functions so reps and techs can focus on their jobs
What We're Looking For
Required:
3+ years of project coordination, project management, or operations coordination experience in a trade, service, industrial, or construction environment
Demonstrated ability to direct crews and hold schedules — not just facilitate meetings
Proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite (Excel, Outlook, Word)
Exceptional organizational skills with the ability to manage multiple active projects simultaneously
Strong verbal and written communication — you can translate between a sales rep and a field technician without losing either of them
Valid driver's license and ability to travel to customer sites as needed
Preferred:
Experience in water treatment, HVAC, medical equipment, or a related technical service field
Familiarity with service management software or field service platforms
CADD or equipment specification experience
PMP or equivalent project management credential
