The Opportunity
I’m partnering with a highly respected mechanical contractor in the Lima, Ohio area to identify a Senior Mechanical Project Manager with strong experience delivering mechanical piping, plumbing, and HVAC/sheet metal work. You’ll lead large, high-profile projects typically $15M+ across commercial, institutional, data center, light industrial, and public sectors throughout Ohio.

This contractor is known for professionalism, an excellent local reputation, and practical technology adoption that helps teams execute efficiently.
What You’ll Do
- Oversee and manage all phases of assigned projects from award through closeout.
- Lead and mentor a team of Project Managers, Assistant Project Managers, Project Engineers, and Superintendents.
- Partner with project schedulers to build and maintain executable schedules and hit milestone dates.
- Estimate, price, and negotiate change orders; maintain complete and accurate change-order logs.
- Own project financial budgets, cost-to-complete, forecasting, and approval of project expenses.
- Administer project contracts and subcontracts; ensure compliance with scope, terms, and documentation requirements.
- Oversee subcontract and equipment buyout, procurement, and vendor coordination.
- Maintain proactive communication with owners and stakeholders to align goals, expectations, and risk items.
- Ensure accurate project records and manage close-out documentation.
- Lead punch-list planning and inspections with the superintendent and owner’s representative; issue punch lists and drive timely completion.
- Build relationships with past clients to support repeat business and referrals.
What We’re Looking For
- 10+ years of experience as a Mechanical Project Manager delivering commercial, institutional, or government work (typically $10M+ budgets).
- Proven ability to lead project teams with strong command of project controls, documentation, and financial management.
- Track record of building schedules, protecting milestones, and managing budget.
- Experience estimating, negotiating, and documenting change orders.
- Strong communication and organization skills; able to run productive cross-functional meetings and manage multiple priorities.
- Demonstrated career stability and a history of successful project delivery.
