Our commitment to improving the world for future generations and our passion for innovative, high‑impact solutions keep us motivated. We strive to hire the best, brightest, and most‑dedicated professionals from a wide variety of backgrounds to create a well‑rounded team with complementary skills and perspectives.

We're looking for a technically sharp, field‑savvy MEP Project Manager to lead complex energy retrofit and performance contract projects from construction kickoff through commissioning and handoff. If you've walked mechanical rooms, collaborated with controls contractors, and taken pride in delivering a building that actually performs to spec — this role was written for you.

This is not a desk job. You'll manage multi‑discipline subcontractor trades teams, own the schedule and budget, drive commissioning, and build lasting relationships with facility owners and operators who are counting on the performance guarantees you put your name on.

• Lead end‑to‑end implementation of Energy Conservation Measures (ECMs) to include: HVAC retrofits, controls upgrades, central plant improvements, electrical, and mechanical/plumbing systems
• Drive technical due diligence through construction: identify and manage technical, schedule, cost, environmental, and performance guarantee risks before they become problems
• Prepare and manage detailed project schedules; hold subcontractors and internal teams accountable to milestones
• Manage project budgets, review and approve expenditures, and process subcontractor draw requests

• Oversee implementation of Measurement & Verification (M&V) plans, commissioning protocols, and post‑implementation O&M handoffs
• Evaluate submittals, RFIs, and field conditions against contract documents and energy performance requirements
• Serve as the technical authority on‑site — the person who spots a misapplied economizer sequence or a VFD programmed to the wrong speed reference

• Oversee Associate Project Managers, Superintendents, and subcontractor field personnel
• Own the client relationship: manage expectations, communicate clearly, and ensure satisfaction at every project phase to deliver excellence
• Lead bid processes and subcontract negotiations with a firm understanding of MEP scope and pricing

• Enforce CEG and site‑specific safety standards; maintain OSHA compliance across all trades
• Oversee on‑site quality control programs to ensure work meets design intent and performance targets

• 5+ years of construction project management or project engineering experience
• Hands‑on experience with MEP systems, specifically HVAC, building controls (BAS/BMS), electrical distribution, and central utilities
• Demonstrated ability to read and work from mechanical, electrical, and controls drawings and specifications
• Experience managing subcontractors across multiple trades simultaneously
• Proficiency with project management software (MS Project, Primavera, or equivalent)
• Strong written and verbal communication skills — you can explain a heat exchanger efficiency curve to an engineer and a utility bill to a facilities director
• OSHA‑30…
