TRAVELING PROJECT EXECUTIVE Mechanical Construction - Nationwide Opportunities Executive Compensation - Major Projects - Long-Term Career Growth

Ready to lead projects that most construction professionals only hear about?

We're partnering with a well-established national mechanical contractor that's taking on some of the largest and most complex construction projects in the country.

Think massive data centers, major healthcare facilities, stadiums, and technically challenging mechanical installations with contract values reaching hundreds of millions of dollars.

This is an opportunity for an experienced Project Executive who enjoys being close to the work, leading strong teams, and having a direct impact on project success.

And here's what makes this opportunity worth exploring.

WHAT'S IN IT FOR YOU?

• Executive-level base salary, with opportunities reaching $225K+ depending on experience.
• Performance-based bonus opportunities.
• Generous travel per diem and allowances.
• Company-supported travel home on a structured rotation.
• Comprehensive benefits with competitive employee costs.
• Long-term project opportunities with an established national contractor.
• A people-focused culture that values leadership, teamwork, and employee development.
• Opportunities to work on high-profile projects across the country.

THE PROJECTS

These aren't your typical mechanical projects.

You’ll have opportunities to lead complex mechanical construction involving:

• Hyperscale data centers and mission-critical facilities.
• Major healthcare and institutional developments.
• Stadiums, entertainment venues, and landmark construction.
• Large commercial and industrial mechanical installations.
• Projects with mechanical scopes ranging from approximately $100M to $800M.

WHAT YOU'LL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR

• Leading large mechanical construction projects from planning through completion.
• Overseeing Project Managers, Superintendents, and project teams.
• Managing project financials, P&L, budgets, forecasting, and profitability.
• Maintaining project schedules, productivity, quality, and safety.
• Building relationships with owners, general contractors, and project stakeholders.
• Developing future leaders and creating accountability across project teams.
• Working closely with executive leadership to ensure successful project delivery.

WHO WE'D LIKE TO MEET

• Experienced Mechanical Project Executives or Senior Project Managers ready for the next level.
• Strong backgrounds in commercial or industrial HVAC, plumbing, piping, and mechanical construction.
• Experience managing large mechanical contracts and multiple project teams.
• Proven financial management and P&L responsibility.
• Leadership experience on complex, fast-paced construction projects.
• Willingness to travel nationwide and remain on-site throughout project assignments.
• A leadership style focused on people, accountability, and results.

Experience with data centers, mission-critical facilities, healthcare, or other large mechanical projects is especially valuable.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

This isn’t a position where you’re constantly wondering where the next project is coming from.

You’ll be joining an established contractor with a national presence, a substantial project portfolio, and opportunities for continued professional growth.

If you’ve spent your career building mechanical projects and want to take on something bigger, this is worth a conversation.
