The Construction Manager, Mechanical coordinates contractors, schedules, site activities, and project documentation to keep mechanical construction and retrofit projects moving safely and on schedule. This role solves day-to-day field coordination challenges by ensuring clients, contractors, and internal teams stay aligned, informed, and focused on completing the work successfully.
OUTCOMES & SCORECARD FOR SUCCESS
  1. Assigned construction projects achieve at least 95% of scheduled milestones on time, with field issues, safety concerns, contractor delays, and client-impacting risks escalated within 24 hours of identification and documented in project tracking tools.
  2. Project documentation is maintained with 98% accuracy and currency throughout the project lifecycle, including schedules, RFIs, submittals, action items, meeting notes, change items, and closeout deliverables, with all required updated completed within 2 business days of receipt or occurrence.
  3. The employee demonstrated a positive attitude, collaborative spirit, sound judgment, and consistent availability while maintaining effective working relationships with clients, contractors, and internal teams.

RESPONSIBILITIES
  1. Coordinate day-to-day field execution of mechanical and electrical construction, retrofit, and infrastructure projects to achieve scope, schedule, quality, and safety objectives.
  2. Manage project schedules, short-term work plans, site logistics, and contractor activities to maintain project progress and milestone completion.
  3. Serve as the primary field liaison for clients, contractors, vendors, facility teams, and internal stakeholders, ensuring timely communication and issue resolution.
  4. Coordinate installation and construction activities involving HVAC systems, boilers, chillers, piping, controls, equipment replacements, and related mechanical infrastructure.
  5. Review drawings, specifications, scopes of work, RFIs, submittals, and change documentation to ensure construction activities align with project requirements.
  6. Monitor project status, risks, schedule impacts, contractor performance, and open issues, providing clear updates and recommended actions to project stakeholders.
  7. Maintain complete and accurate project documentation, including schedules, meeting records, field reports, logs, and closeout materials.
  8. Identify and address safety, quality, access, coordination, and constructability issues in the field, escalating unresolved concerns with actionable recommendations.
  9. Track field changes, contractor impacts, and cost exposures, supporting change order management, project controls, and accurate project financial reporting.

QUALIFICATIONS
