    HVAC Project Manager / Sr. Project Manager — Mission Critical Construction

    Location: Seattle, WA
    Industry: Mechanical Contracting & Construction
    Employment Type: Full-time
    Salary Range: $130,000–$170,000 (DOE, with flexibility)

    Lead fast-paced HVAC projects in critical infrastructure environments.

    A leading mechanical contractor is hiring Project Managers and Senior Project Managers with experience managing large-scale mechanical scopes—particularly HVAC—in mission critical environments such as data centers, high-tech campuses, or advanced manufacturing.

    These roles cover the full project lifecycle: estimating, procurement, contract and budget oversight, client coordination, and field execution. Project values typically range from $80M–$500M and are executed with speed-to-market delivery models in mind.

    What you’ll do:

    • Manage complex HVAC projects from pursuit to completion, ensuring quality, budget, and schedule alignment
    • Coordinate field efforts and subcontractors, including project-specific sequencing and staffing
    • Serve as the primary liaison between the client, trade partners, and internal teams
    • Lead or support preconstruction efforts including GMP estimates, project budgeting, and subcontractor scope alignment
    • Oversee change orders, pay applications, and project financials
    • Mentor junior staff and support department growth initiatives

    What you bring:

    • 5+ years of experience managing large mechanical construction projects (HVAC, piping, or MEP scopes), ideally in mission critical settings
    • Experience with contracts in the $20M–$500M+ range
    • Familiarity with cost-reimbursable and GMP project models
    • Ability to operate independently while managing internal coordination and client-facing responsibilities
    • Background in Construction Management, Mechanical Engineering, or a related field strongly preferred
    • Proficiency in tools like Bluebeam, MS Project, Excel, and platforms such as Smartsheet, JDE, IFS, or similar

    Why this role:

    • Join a growing, well-established mechanical contractor with a strong foothold in mission critical markets
    • Lead fast-moving, high-profile projects with top-tier tech clients
    • Work alongside a collaborative team of builders with field-first values
    • Competitive salary and comprehensive benefits — PM and Sr. PM roles available depending on experience

    Important:
    We’re looking for candidates with construction-side HVAC project management experience in mission critical or similarly fast-paced sectors. If your background is purely design or owner-rep, this may not be the right fit.
