Project Manager or Senior Project Manager — Mission Critical Construction

Location: Reno, NV
Industry : Mechanical Contracting & Construction
Employment Type: Full-time
Salary Range: $120,000–$150,000+ (DOE)

Lead fast-paced HVAC projects in critical infrastructure environments.

A leading mechanical contractor is hiring Project Managers and Senior Project Managers with experience managing large-scale mechanical scopes—particularly HVAC—in mission critical environments such as data centers, high-tech campuses, or advanced manufacturing. These roles cover the full project lifecycle: estimating, procurement, contract and budget oversight, client coordination, and field execution. Project values typically range from $80M–$500M and are executed with speed-to-market delivery models in mind.

What you’ll do:

  • Manage complex HVAC projects from pursuit to completion, ensuring quality, budget, and schedule alignment
  • Coordinate field efforts and subcontractors, including project-specific sequencing and staffing
  • Serve as the primary liaison between the client, trade partners, and internal teams
  • Lead or support preconstruction efforts including GMP estimates, project budgeting, and subcontractor scope alignment
  • Oversee change orders, pay applications, and project financials
  • Mentor junior staff and support department growth initiatives

What you bring:

  • 5+ years of experience managing large mechanical construction projects (HVAC, piping, or MEP scopes), ideally in mission critical settings
  • Experience with contracts in the $20M–$500M+ range
  • Familiarity with cost-reimbursable and GMP project models
  • Ability to operate independently while managing internal coordination and client-facing responsibilities
  • Background in Construction Management, Mechanical Engineering, or a related field strongly preferred
  • Proficiency in tools like Bluebeam, MS Project, Excel, and platforms such as Smartsheet, JDE, IFS, or similar

Why this role:

  • Join a growing, well-established mechanical contractor with a strong foothold in mission critical markets
  • Lead fast-moving, high-profile projects with top-tier tech clients
  • Work alongside a collaborative team of builders with field-first values
  • Competitive salary and comprehensive benefits — PM and Sr. PM roles available depending on experience
  • Currently hiring in AZ, CO, ID, and NV — and starting conversations with candidates who are open to relocating to other US locations as future projects and offices come online.

Important:
We’re looking for candidates with construction-side HVAC project management experience in mission critical or similarly fast-paced sectors. If your background is purely design or owner-rep, this may not be the right fit.
