Job Description

About the Role

We’re looking for a Senior Project Manager / Account Executive who thrives in the commercial and industrial mechanical space — someone who knows ductwork and piping systems, leads clients with confidence, and drives projects like they’re running their own business.

This isn’t a paper-pusher role. You’ll have full responsibility for project execution, client relationships, and financial outcomes across a range of technically complex HVAC and piping jobs. You’ll collaborate closely with our in-house teams (sheet metal, pipefitting, service, test & balance) to deliver results the Roberts way — built clean, built right, built to last.

Why Roberts HVAC?

We self-perform : Sheet metal, fabrication, piping, service, test & balance, controls — giving you true control of schedule, quality, and outcomes.

We build the big stuff : Healthcare, higher ed, labs, food/bev, manufacturing, energy.

You're in the driver’s seat : Manage your projects like a business — including client relationships, change orders, manpower, and margin.

Real career path : We’re growing — with opportunity for executive-level leadership roles.

Support where it matters : Estimating, field labor, safety, and prefabrication — all in-house.

Strong compensation : Competitive base + bonus + benefits + car allowance + 401(k).

What You’ll Own

Project & Financial Management

  • Full-cycle management of HVAC and mechanical piping projects from handoff to closeout
  • Own the P&L: manage cost reports, billings, change orders, collections, and buyouts
  • Forecast labor and material needs; control costs without sacrificing quality
  • Execute contract scope while identifying and capitalizing on margin opportunities

Client & Team Leadership

  • Be the face of Roberts HVAC to GCs, owners, facility managers, and engineers
  • Build and maintain lasting client relationships through communication, performance, and accountability
  • Coordinate with field supervisors, foremen, and in-house trades to deliver on schedule
  • Collaborate with estimators, CAD/BIM, and project coordinators for smooth execution

Execution & Risk Management

  • Manage submittals, RFIs, procurement, schedule updates, and equipment deliveries
  • Navigate union labor (Local 597, 73, etc.) and understand jurisdictional nuances
  • Anticipate problems and act decisively to protect project profitability and client satisfaction

What You Bring

  • 5+ years of commercial/industrial HVAC and mechanical piping project experience
  • Strong knowledge of ductwork, hydronic, steam, process piping, and/or chilled water systems
  • Confident managing multiple projects and client accounts simultaneously
  • Solid understanding of construction contracts, cost control, billing, and scheduling
  • Able to read specs and mechanical drawings , coordinate trades, and push jobs forward
  • Professional, polished communicator — trusted by clients, respected by the field
  • Familiar with MS Project, Bluebeam, Excel, and ERP tools (we’ll train you on ours)

Ready to Join a Winning Team?

At Roberts HVAC, we’ve built a reputation for delivering high-performance mechanical systems with integrity, craftsmanship, and client-first service. If you’re a driven project leader looking for a long-term home with a company that builds great projects and great careers , we want to hear from you.

Compensation

Base Salary: $120,000 – $150,000 (based on experience)

Bonus Eligible: Performance bonus tied to project profitability and client retention

Benefits Include:

  • Health, dental, vision
  • 401(k) with company match
  • PTO + paid holidays
  • Vehicle allowance
  • Career growth path
