Accutemp Engineering Inc. is seeking an experienced HVAC Project Manager to lead commercial HVAC construction projects from initial planning and design coordination through installation, billing, closeout, and final turnover.

This position supports a varied portfolio of design-build and plan-and-spec projects, ranging from office fit-outs to food-processing facilities. The Project Manager will coordinate internal project teams, field labor, subcontractors, vendors, design professionals, general contractors, and customers to keep project scope, schedule, budget, quality, safety, and documentation aligned.

The successful candidate will bring strong commercial HVAC knowledge, practical project-management skills, financial accountability, and the ability to manage multiple priorities without losing sight of important details. This is an opportunity for a self-motivated professional to take ownership of projects across the full lifecycle—from design and takeoff through field execution, billing, and closeout.

• Own commercial HVAC projects across the complete project lifecycle.
• Work on a diverse mix of commercial and industrial HVAC applications.
• Combine technical HVAC knowledge with project leadership, financial management, and customer interaction.
• Continue developing your expertise through paid training, tuition reimbursement, and professional development assistance.

• Review project proposals, contracts, drawings, specifications, schedules, and scope requirements before execution.
• Develop and maintain a practical project plan covering milestones, labor requirements, procurement, submittals, billing, and closeout activities.
• Lead assigned projects from award through completion and turnover.

• Support and coordinate the design of commercial HVAC systems for design-build and plan-and-spec projects.
• Perform and review HVAC piping and sheet-metal takeoffs.
• Validate quantities, scope coverage, constructability, and anticipated labor and material requirements.
• Review project drawings and specifications to identify scope gaps, coordination concerns, and potential field conflicts.
• Coordinate with engineers, architects, general contractors, subcontractors, and other trades to resolve design and installation issues.
• Manage the RFI process from preparation through response and resolution.
• Manage the submittal process, including preparation, tracking, follow-up, approval, and distribution.
• Maintain current RFI and submittal logs and follow up on outstanding items that could affect procurement or the project schedule.
• Ensure approved submittals, drawing revisions, specifications, and field direction are communicated to the appropriate project team members.
• Use CAD and related project-management technology as appropriate to support design and project coordination.

• Manage subcontractors and vendors throughout assigned projects.
