Essential Duties

& Responsibilities: Develop and execute a plan to identify, qualify, and close opportunities; prospect new accounts; and expand relationships within existing customer base and targeted vertical markets.

Review plans, specifications, and field conditions; define scopes; estimate BMS related projects; and prepare proposals covering pricing, labor, materials, subcontractors, vendors, as well as the financial value of the recommended solution.

Apply knowledge of HVAC systems, controls, energy management, and smart-building technologies to recommend practical, efficient solutions aligned with customer goals. Coordinate internally when opportunities include mechanical equipment, planned maintenance, service, repair, replacement, or related project work. Lead meetings, site walks, pre-bid meetings, presentations, RFP responses, negotiations, and follow-up activities from opportunity development through project close.

Communicate technical concepts clearly to both technical and nontechnical stakeholders. Develop service agreements, planned maintenance opportunities, controls agreements, system upgrades, repairs, retrofits, and account-based pull through work where applicable.

Qualifications
