MEP Project Manager - Commercial Plumbing
TLDR
Lead commercial and industrial plumbing and process piping projects from preconstruction through commissioning and closeout.
We are looking for an MEP Project Manager with direct commercial plumbing experience to take ownership of project execution from preconstruction through closeout across commercial and industrial plumbing and process piping projects. This is a hands-on project leadership role within a mechanical contracting environment, requiring the ability to manage field execution, schedules, budgets, subcontractors, materials, and client requirements. The Project Manager will work closely with field teams and project stakeholders to keep plumbing projects on schedule, within budget, and aligned with contract requirements. Candidates must have direct plumbing project management experience rather than general MEP coordination experience alone.
Responsibilities
- Lead commercial and industrial plumbing and process piping projects from preconstruction through final closeout.
- Develop and maintain project schedules, budgets, procurement plans, and execution strategies for active plumbing projects.
- Manage subcontractors, vendors, field personnel, and project activities to maintain schedule and quality requirements.
- Review plumbing drawings, specifications, submittals, RFIs, and change orders to drive project execution.
- Interface directly with general contractors, owners, engineers, inspectors, vendors, and field teams throughout the project lifecycle.
- Track project costs, commitments, billing, change orders, and schedule performance to protect project profitability.
- Resolve field and technical issues involving plumbing systems, materials, installation requirements, and project specifications.
- Coordinate material procurement and delivery to ensure plumbing crews have the required materials and equipment for scheduled work.
- Conduct project meetings and provide clear updates on progress, risks, costs, and outstanding issues.
- Drive projects through punch list, commissioning, final inspections, and closeout while ensuring contract requirements are satisfied.
Requirements
- 5+ years of project management experience in commercial or industrial plumbing construction.
- Direct experience managing commercial plumbing and/or process piping projects is required.
- Experience working for a plumbing contractor, mechanical contractor, MEP subcontractor, or similar construction environment.
- Strong knowledge of plumbing systems, construction methods, drawings, specifications, and project documentation.
- Experience managing project schedules, budgets, change orders, RFIs, submittals, procurement, and subcontractors.
- Must have direct ownership of plumbing projects from start through completion; candidates limited to MEP coordination or administrative project support will not be sufficient.
- Commercial or industrial plumbing experience required; residential-only project management experience will not be sufficient.
- Strong communication, problem-solving, organizational, and client-facing skills.
