Our approach
Recruiting across commissioning phases
Commissioning work can begin with design and submittal review and continue through installation checks, functional performance testing, issue tracking, and closeout. We identify which phases the hire will own and whether the role represents an independent provider, contractor, or owner team.
Our approach
System-specific technical experience
Searches may focus on HVAC, electrical, controls, plumbing, life safety, or integrated systems. We ask candidates to explain the systems they have commissioned, their testing responsibilities, and how they coordinated with contractors and facility stakeholders.
Our approach
Documentation and operational handoff
We assess familiarity with checklists, test procedures, deficiency logs, commissioning reports, and turnover records. The brief can distinguish field execution from commissioning management, planning, and owner-facing reporting.
Our approach
Direct search for local and traveling talent
We conduct direct outreach to local commissioning candidates in the markets we cover, including those willing to travel 100%. Nationwide candidates willing to travel 100% can be considered when assignments require full-time travel, with expectations confirmed in advance.

Good questions
Frequently asked questions.
How is a commissioning search scoped?
We clarify the building systems, project phase, reporting relationship, and whether the position is with an independent provider, contractor, or owner team.
Do candidates need field testing experience?
That depends on the role. We distinguish hands-on functional testing and issue resolution from planning, documentation, management, or owner-facing responsibilities.
Can commissioning searches include travelers?
Yes. We can contact local professionals willing to travel 100% and nationwide candidates willing to travel 100%, after discussing the specific assignment expectations.

Relocation and travel
