**Workplace:** on_site

## Description

We’re seeking an experienced Plumbing Project Manager to oversee commercial and industrial plumbing and process piping projects from initial planning through completion. This role requires hands-on experience managing project schedules, budgets, field operations, procurement, subcontractors, and client relationships to ensure projects meet contractual requirements, quality standards, and deadlines.

### Responsibilities

-   Oversee commercial and industrial plumbing and process piping projects throughout preconstruction, execution, and closeout.
-   Establish project schedules, budgets, procurement timelines, and execution plans to support efficient project delivery.
-   Coordinate subcontractors, vendors, field crews, and other project personnel to maintain productivity, quality, and schedule commitments.
-   Review plumbing drawings, technical specifications, submittals, RFIs, and change orders to address project requirements and keep work moving forward.
-   Serve as the primary point of contact for general contractors, owners, engineers, inspectors, suppliers, and field teams.
-   Monitor project financials, including costs, commitments, billing, change orders, and schedule performance, to maintain profitability.
-   Troubleshoot field issues related to plumbing systems, installation methods, materials, and construction specifications.
-   Oversee material and equipment purchasing, delivery schedules, and availability to ensure crews have the resources needed to complete scheduled work.
-   Lead project meetings and communicate progress, budget updates, potential delays, risks, and outstanding items to relevant stakeholders.
-   Manage punch lists, commissioning, final inspections, and project closeout to ensure all contractual obligations are fulfilled.

## Requirements

-   5+ years of project management experience in commercial or industrial plumbing construction.
-   Proven experience managing commercial plumbing and/or process piping projects.
-   Previous experience with a plumbing contractor, mechanical contractor, MEP subcontractor, or similar construction company.
-   Strong understanding of plumbing systems, construction practices, technical drawings, specifications, and project documentation.
-   Experience overseeing project schedules, budgets, RFIs, submittals, change orders, procurement, and subcontractor coordination.
-   Demonstrated ability to manage plumbing projects independently from initial planning through final completion; MEP coordination or administrative support alone is insufficient.
-   Commercial or industrial plumbing construction experience is required; residential-only project management experience will not qualify.
-   Excellent communication, organizational, problem-solving, and client relationship management skills.

## Benefits

-   Competitive salary based on experience.
-   Health insurance options.
-   Retirement plan options.
-   Paid time off.
-   Additional company-sponsored benefits.
