We're expanding into the Nashville market and building a crew of skilled sheet metal mechanics to install ductwork and HVAC systems on commercial construction projects across Middle Tennessee. This is a ground-floor opportunity to join a growing division with steady work, real career runway, and the backing of a well-run shop. Position Overview We're hiring Sheet Metal Mechanics at every experience level — from apprentices ready to learn the trade, to journeymen running their own runs, to crew chiefs and supervisors who can lead a crew and manage a job. Whatever your level, you'll be fabricating and installing commercial HVAC ductwork and related sheet metal systems on active construction sites. You'll work from approved mechanical drawings, deliver clean, code-compliant installations, and help us build the Nashville division from the ground up. If you take pride in tight seams, square hangers, and a job site you'd be happy to walk a GC through — we want to talk. Roles We're Filling We have openings at all levels: Supervisors / Foremen — Run full sheet metal scope on commercial projects. Manage crews, coordinate with GCs and other trades, schedule manpower and material, own quality and safety on site. Crew Chiefs / Lead Mechanics — Lead a small crew on a single floor or zone, set the pace, train apprentices, keep the work on plan and on schedule. Journeymen Sheet Metal Mechanics — Layout, fabricate, hang, and seal commercial duct systems independently from mechanical drawings.
