As Commissioning Project Manager, you’ll help clients get what they expect from their buildings - systems that perform reliably, efficiently, and in alignment with their goals. You’ll lead commissioning efforts for new construction and existing buildings, working with healthcare, education, and corporate clients on projects that make a lasting impact.

This role blends technical expertise with client advocacy. You’ll guide commissioning activities from design through post-construction, collaborating with project teams and mentoring junior staff. You’ll be part of a team that’s known for solving problems, not just identifying them, and for delivering results that matter.
