This is a true build‑and‑own opportunity. A growing commercial mechanical contractor is launching a new commercial HVAC construction division and is hiring a senior leader to take full ownership. Strategy, relationships, execution, and P&L. This role is not maintenance mode.
Why this role stands out
- Launching and leading a new construction division, not inheriting one
- Immediate ability to leverage existing GC relationships to drive revenue
- Full P&L ownership with real upside tied to performance
- Strong back‑office, service infrastructure, and executive support already in place
- EOS‑run organization with clarity, accountability, and structure
What you will own
- Build and scale the commercial HVAC construction division from the ground up
- Hire, lead, and develop project managers, estimators, and field leadership
- Establish estimating, project execution, job costing, and operational standards
- Align construction and service offerings for long‑term client value
- Own EOS execution for the division including Rocks, Scorecards, and L10s
Business Development
- Leverage existing GC and developer relationships to secure immediate work
- Lead preconstruction, proposals, negotiations, and project pursuit strategy
- Build a consistent pipeline across commercial, institutional, and light industrial markets
- Represent the company with GCs, developers, and industry partners
Operations & Financials
- Oversee estimating, scheduling, procurement, and field execution
- Ensure projects hit schedule, margin, quality, and safety targets
- Own division P&L, forecasting, backlog, and labor utilization
- Deliver consistent job costing and financial visibility
What they are looking for
- 5–7+ years in commercial HVAC construction
- Proven GC‑facing leadership with repeat business
- Experience delivering projects in the $300K to $2M+ range
- Strong mechanical and construction knowledge
- Entrepreneurial mindset with the ability to build and scale
- Comfortable owning outcomes, not just managing tasks
- Experience with EOS is a plus, not a requirement
- Launch the construction division and reach profitability
- Build roughly $8M in backlog through existing relationships
- Establish a complete operational team and execution rhythm
- Deliver projects within ±3% of estimated margin
- Drive high repeat business and client satisfaction
Compensation
- Base salary $150K–$200K depending on experience
- Performance-based profit sharing tied to division results
- Vehicle or allowance
- Full benefits including medical, dental, vision, 401(k), and PTO
This role is for someone who wants to build something meaningful , not just run what already exists.
