About The Position

Samet's Greensboro office is seeking a MEP technical expert who can manage the complete lifecycle of highly complex mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems in mission-critical environments. Responsibilities span from pre-construction and design-assist through commissioning and turnover of technically demanding projects. As a Senior MEP Project Manager, you will be the main point of accountability for the successful delivery of our most technically demanding projects. This is not a standard commercial construction role. You are an MEP expert first and a project manager second. You will be responsible for the entire lifecycle of complex MEP systems, from pre-construction and design-assist to energization, commissioning, and turnover.

Requirements

10+ years of project management experience, with at least 5 years in a lead role managing large, complex MEP scopes (MEP values of $50M+).
Expert-level understanding of project controls, scheduling (P6), cost management, and contract negotiation.

Responsibilities

Provide single-point leadership for all MEP-related activities, serving as the primary expert and point of contact for the owner, engineers, design partners, and specialty trade partners.
Lead MEP design-assist, value engineering, and constructability reviews. Develop and manage detailed MEP budgets and schedules, identifying long-lead equipment and critical path risk.
Manage all financial aspects of the MEP scope ($50M+), including cost control, change order management, and monthly forecasting.
Proactively identify and mitigate risks related to system integration, operational shutdowns, energization, and commissioning.
Support the BIM/VDC coordination process, ensuring all systems are 100% clash-detected and coordinated for pre-fabrication and installation.
Oversee the entire QA/QC program and manage the commissioning (Cx) process, from factory witness tests to functional performance testing and Integrated Systems Testing (IST).
Champion a zero-incident safety culture with a heightened focus on the unique risks of critical environments (e.g., arc flash, energization protocols, infection control).
