Position Overview

A mechanical services company is seeking a motivated, self-driven professional who enjoys solving technical problems and working with customers. This position combines conceptual HVAC and plumbing budgeting, cost analysis, value engineering, and ongoing communication with General Contractors.

We are looking for someone who wants to learn the business, take ownership of assignments, and build a long-term career in commercial mechanical construction. Strong initiative, analytical aptitude, communication, and follow-through matter more than extensive industry experience.

What you will do

• Support conceptual and preliminary HVAC and plumbing budgets using project information, historical costs, and input from estimators and vendors.


• Review drawings, specifications, and early design information to identify scope requirements, cost drivers, missing information, and potential project risks.


• Help evaluate value engineering ideas and system alternatives, considering cost, performance, constructability, and project requirements.


• Maintain regular communication with General Contractors about budgets, project needs, questions, deadlines, and next steps.


• Coordinate preliminary pricing and technical input with estimators, vendors, subcontractors, and operations personnel.


• Track assigned opportunities and customer requests, organize project records, and follow through on commitments.


• Maintain historical cost information and help improve budgeting tools and analytical processes.


• Participate in customer meetings, jobsite visits, industry events, and occasional relationship-building outings.

Location: Office and Construction On-site in Tulsa, OK

Travel: regionally as needed

Qualifications

What you should bring

• Initiative and accountability: identify the next step, ask for needed direction, and complete assignments without repeated reminders.


• Analytical ability: work comfortably with numbers, check assumptions, recognize inconsistencies, and explain your conclusions.


• Communication and relationship skills: listen carefully, ask useful questions, write clearly, and interact professionally with customers and coworkers.


• Organization: manage multiple requests, maintain accurate records, and communicate early when priorities or deadlines need attention.


• Technical curiosity and coachability: show interest in mechanical systems and construction, accept feedback, and apply what you learn.


• Microsoft Excel and computer proficiency: organize data, use basic formulas, and learn new tools and software.

Education and experience

This opportunity is well suited to entry-level and early-career candidates, generally with zero to five years of relevant experience. Candidates with other experience levels or transferable skills will also be considered.

A degree in Mechanical Engineering, Construction Management, Construction Engineering, or a related technical discipline is preferred. Business or finance backgrounds with demonstrated technical aptitude are also relevant. A degree is not mandatory; comparable experience, technical training, or demonstrated ability may provide an equally strong foundation.

Experience in commercial construction, project engineering, estimating, project coordination, or technical analysis is preferred. 

What you will develop

With guidance from experienced personnel, you will develop knowledge of mechanical systems, drawing review, conceptual budgeting, estimating software, historical cost analysis, practical VE, and customer coordination. Responsibility will increase as you demonstrate readiness.

• First year: learn the company's workflows and mechanical scope; contribute to reviewed budgets, cost records, and customer follow-up.


• Years two and three: take ownership of assigned preconstruction coordination, develop sound budget assumptions, and become a dependable customer contact.


• Years three through five: become a highly proficient preconstruction professional with reliable technical judgment and trusted working relationships.
