About the Company
The business is an air conditioning and HVAC specialist providing installation, replacement and maintenance services to commercial and residential clients across London and the Home Counties.
Why Join Them
This is a role suited to someone who wants responsibility across the full project lifecycle rather than being restricted to one part of the process. You will have direct involvement in technical solutions, project delivery, estimating and client development, with the opportunity to build long-term commercial relationships.
The position also provides a clear route for an experienced HVAC professional to develop their commercial responsibilities while remaining closely involved with the technical side of the industry.

Key responsibilities include:
*
Surveying sites and assessing client requirements.

Designing and specifying suitable air conditioning solutions.

Preparing quotations, costings and technical proposals.
*
Managing installation projects from award through to completion.
*
Planning labour, materials and subcontractor activities.

Monitoring programme, quality and project profitability.
*
Responding to enquiries and converting opportunities into sales.
*
Identifying upgrade, replacement and energy-efficiency opportunities.
Candidate Background
You will need a minimum of 3 years' experience within the air conditioning or HVAC industry, with a strong understanding of split systems, VRF/VRV systems, ventilation and associated equipment.
Previous experience managing air conditioning installation projects and producing technical quotations or estimates is essential. Strong commercial awareness, negotiation skills and confident customer-facing communication are also required.
F-Gas, SMSTS or SSSTS, high-end residential experience, and experience working with commercial HVAC contractors or FM providers would be advantageous.
The role could suit an experienced Air Conditioning Project Manager, HVAC Project Engineer, Contracts Manager, Senior Air Conditioning Engineer or HVAC Technical Sales professional looking to combine their technical background with greater commercial responsibility.
Summary
A strong opportunity for an experienced HVAC professional who enjoys both project delivery and dealing directly with customers. The role offers genuine variety across technical, operational and commercial activity, with the support of a company vehicle and fuel card.
