Project Manager | HVAC & Mechanical Services

_{26th August, 2026}

The opportunity A national mechanical services business is expanding its Queensland operation and looking for a Project Manager to take ownership of its HVAC and mechanical project delivery.

This is a project role, start to finish - not service coordination and not large-scale wet construction. You'll run a varied book of work across fit-outs, upgrades and central plant replacements, spanning both maintenance-driven upgrades and capital works projects.

The variety is the drawcard: no two jobs look the same.

Based in Brisbane, working Monday to Friday, with a genuine pathway into management as the Queensland arm grows.

The work

• Managing HVAC and mechanical projects end to end - scope, program, delivery and handover
• A mix of mechanical fit-outs, upgrades and central plant replacement projects
• Exposure to both maintenance upgrade works and capital works
• Managing subcontractors, suppliers and site delivery
• Owning project budgets, costings, forecasting and financial reporting
• Client-facing throughout - you're the point of contact from award to completion

Projects you'll be across

• Correctional facilities
• Hotels
• Aged care facilities
• Commercial buildings
• Central plant replacement projects
• Mechanical fit-outs and upgrades

What's on offer

• $150,000 – $165,000 + superannuation, depending on experience
• Fully maintained company vehicle, or a car allowance
• Phone and laptop provided
• Monday to Friday - no weekend or on-call roster
• A supportive national leadership team behind a growing Queensland operation
• A real career pathway into management, with the opportunity to build and run your own team or division as the business scales

About you

• A background in HVAC, refrigeration or mechanical services
• Around 3+ years out of the tools, already supervising, coordinating or managing projects
• Confident reading and interpreting mechanical plans and specifications
• Some exposure to budgeting, forecasting and project financials (beneficial, not essential)
• Ambitious and driven - you want the next step, not the same step somewhere else
• Full working rights in Australia and a current driver's licence

Not a seasoned Project Manager yet? Still worth a conversation. Our client is genuinely open to a strong site supervisor, leading hand or project coordinator ready to step up, and will back the right person to grow into the role.
