  • Experience with HVAC equipment replacement and retrofit projects.

Compensation

Approximately $40 per hour DOE (Depending on Experience).

Compensation will be based on commercial HVAC experience, leadership ability, technical knowledge, and experience managing retrofit projects and field crews.

Ideal Candidate

The ideal candidate is a working HVAC Foreman-not simply a service technician. You should be comfortable taking ownership of the job site, directing crews, coordinating with other trades, communicating with project management, and making sure the work gets completed correctly and on schedule.

We are looking for someone who can lead from the front, understands commercial HVAC installation, and can take responsibility for the day-to-day execution of retrofit projects.

If you’re an experienced commercial HVAC professional ready to take the lead on major retrofit projects in the Phoenix market, we’d like to hear from you.
