About the Company Our client is a long-established Sydney-based mechanical contractor delivering end-to-end HVAC solutions — from in-house design and engineering through to installation, commissioning, and ongoing service. Currently, they’re delivering several D&C mixed-use developments with mechanical values up to $15 million, and have another large-scale project in the pipeline. As part of their continued growth, they’re now seeking an experienced HVAC Project Manager to join their team and take ownership of key D&C projects across Sydney.

The Role As the HVAC Project Manager, you’ll oversee the full lifecycle of D&C projects — from pre-construction through to commissioning and handover. You’ll manage budgets, programs, and site delivery while ensuring all design, engineering, and installation activities align with client expectations and company standards.

Oversee coordination between design, engineering, procurement, and site teams.

Anticipate and resolve design or construction challenges before they escalate.
Maintain strong client, consultant, and contractor relationships throughout project delivery.
Ensure all work complies with WHS and quality assurance standards.

About You

Strong understanding of HVAC design principles and coordination.

Excellent communication and leadership skills — confident managing site and office teams.

Commercially astute with strong cost control and forecasting abilities.

What’s on Offer

Salary up to $180,000 + super, depending on experience.

A strong pipeline of significant projects, including upcoming large‑scale developments.
