Role Summary
The Commercial
Project Manager is responsible for the successful execution of 80–100
commercial AV projects per year, or 15-20 projects (from contract
handoff through final closeout at a time) and service department transition.
This role carries full ownership of project budget, profitability, schedule,
labor utilization, change order management, billing accuracy, documentation,
and client satisfaction
The Commercial PM directly manages Project Foremen (Level 3 Technicians) and all technicians assigned to their projects. This is a leadership role that requires the ability to drive financial outcomes, hold teams accountable, and maintain proactive communication with clients, general contractors, architects, and internal stakeholders.
This role blends field oversight with in-house project management and works cross-functionally with Sales, Design, Engineering, Operations, Procurement, and Finance. The Commercial PM is accountable for EOS scorecard performance, progress billing, and the financial health of every project in their portfolio.

• Manage project budgets from kickoff through closeout, including labor, materials, subcontractors, rental equipment, and travel costs
• Monitor project profitability in real time; identify budget variances early and implement corrective actions immediately
• Track and manage all change orders — ensure every scope change is documented, priced, approved by the client, and reflected in the project budget before work is performed
• Manage Time & Materials (T&M) work with accurate tracking of labor hours and material usage; ensure T&M does not erode project margin
• Provide bi-monthly reporting to clients, sales, and stakeholders on labor usage, cost-to-complete, and project margin

- 75% long-term target

• Verify that all field time tracking is accurate, complete, and submitted — cross-check and verify the entire week by Thursday at 5:30 PM
• Coordinate labor forecasting with Operations to ensure adequate staffing for upcoming project phases

Change Order Management

• Ensure approved change orders are reflected in updated project budgets, schedules, and billing milestones
• Communicate change order impacts to field teams, Sales, and Finance in a timely manner
Project Execution & Scheduling
• Own overall project execution from kickoff through final closeout and 60-day service transition
• Create, maintain, and actively manage project schedules including milestones, labor forecasting, and material readiness
• Partner with Sales, Design, Engineering, Operations, and Procurement to ensure timely, high-quality project delivery
• Maintain a thorough understanding of project scope, drawings, specifications, and contract terms for every active project
• Establish and manage material need-by dates with Sales, Design, and Procurement; prevent material delays from impacting schedule
• Coordinate mobilization efforts, site readiness, and travel logistics for all assigned projects
• Communicate schedule changes, risks, and impacts clearly to internal teams and clients
Team Leadership & People Management
• Directly manage Project Foremen (Level 3 Technicians) and all technicians assigned to your projects

• Issue substantial completion notification when systems are in use with only minor punch-list items remaining
• Provide final sign-off when all punch-list items are resolved
• Coordinate client training at project close in partnership with Sales
• Ensure all closeout documentation is complete: as-builts, system photos, owner's manuals, job completion forms
• Transition completed projects to the Service Department within 60 days of final sign-off
Documentation & Reporting
