Location: Austin, TX
A well-established, highly respected mechanical subcontractor is looking to bring on a Plumbing Project Manager to support its growing Houston operations.

You'll be working on a mix of commercial and institutional projects, partnering closely with field teams, clients, and internal stakeholders to ensure smooth, profitable project delivery.

- Working closely with Superintendents to ensure efficient field execution
- Resolving project challenges proactively and maintaining strong client relationships
- Assisting with preconstruction, takeoffs, and scope reviews as needed
What We're Looking For
- 5-10+ years of experience in mechanical construction, with a strong focus on plumbing
- Proven experience managing commercial plumbing projects in the Houston or Texas market
- Strong understanding of plumbing systems, codes, and installation practices
- Ability to manage budgets, schedules, and multiple priorities effectively
- Strong communication and relationship-building skills
- Experience working for a mechanical or plumbing subcontractor preferred
- Bachelor's degree in Construction Management, Engineering, or related field (preferred)
Why This Opportunity Stands Out
- Join a stable, well-regarded contractor with a strong reputation in the Houston market
- Consistent pipeline of commercial and institutional work
- Opportunity to take ownership of your projects and make a visible impact
- Collaborative, team-oriented culture with strong field and office alignment
- Clear path for growth into senior project management or leadership roles
- Competitive compensation, bonus potential, and full benefits package
This is a great opportunity for a plumbing-focused Project Manager who wants to be part of a tight-knit, high-performing team while working on meaningful projects across Austin.
