Project Manager – New Construction HVAC & Plumbing
Traverse City, MI
Build Exceptional Projects. Lead Exceptional Teams.
If you're the kind of Project Manager who keeps projects moving, builders informed, and field teams set up for success, this is the opportunity you've been waiting for.
We're partnering with one of Northern Michigan's most respected mechanical contractors to find a Project Manager who will oversee custom residential HVAC and plumbing projects from pre-construction through completion. You'll have the autonomy to run your projects, the support of an experienced team, and the opportunity to make a real impact as the company continues to grow.
This isn't a role where you're buried in paperwork all day. You'll be in the field, collaborating with builders, solving problems, and ensuring every project is completed safely, on time, and to the highest standards.
Compensation & Benefits
- $80,000–$110,000 base salary (depending on experience)
- Performance-based bonus
- Company vehicle, fuel card, phone, iPad, uniforms, and top-of-the-line tools
- Medical, dental, vision, life, and AD&D insurance
- HSA or FSA options
- 401(k) with up to a 4% company match
- Paid vacation, holidays, birthday off, wellness time, and parental leave
- Tuition reimbursement
- Employee referral program
- Employee discounts
- Relocation assistance available
- Strong leadership support and long-term career growth
What You'll Do
- Manage multiple custom residential HVAC and plumbing construction projects from start to finish
- Develop and maintain project schedules while balancing multiple active builds
- Serve as the primary point of contact between builders, homeowners, field teams, and internal departments
- Review blueprints, specifications, contracts, and project documentation
- Monitor budgets, labor performance, project timelines, and job profitability
- Conduct job site visits to ensure quality workmanship, safety, and schedule compliance
- Coordinate closely with estimating, operations, and field leadership to ensure smooth project execution
- Resolve project challenges quickly while maintaining excellent customer relationships
- Help improve processes and mentor team members as the company continues to grow
What We're Looking For
- Construction project management experience required
- Residential construction experience strongly preferred
- HVAC, plumbing, or mechanical construction experience is highly preferred
- Ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously in a fast-paced environment
- Experience reading blueprints, specifications, and construction documents
- Strong understanding of scheduling, budgeting, and job costing
- Excellent communication and relationship-building skills
- Highly organized with exceptional time management
- Proactive, solutions-focused mindset
- Experience with construction software; ServiceTitan experience is a plus
- Project Management degree is a plus but not required
Why This Opportunity Stands Out
This company has been serving Northern Michigan homeowners and builders since 2000 by delivering quality craftsmanship, innovative mechanical solutions, and exceptional customer service. The company has built a reputation for investing in its people, promoting from within, and creating an environment where employees are trusted, supported, and equipped to succeed.
You'll join a collaborative leadership team where your expertise is valued, your voice is heard, and you'll have the opportunity to help shape the future of a growing organization.
If you're ready to take ownership of high-end residential construction projects while building a long-term career with a company that genuinely invests in its people, we'd love to speak with you. Apply today!
