Dan Kostecki

Director: Building Technologies

Company Description

Our client is a division of a large, multi-billion-dollar national mechanical contracting group. They specialize in HVAC services and were seeking a strong leader to accelerate the growth of their service business.

Job Title

HVAC Service General Manager

How long was client searching prior to our involvement?

The client had been searching for one month prior to contacting Dan.

Did client have internal recruiting resources?

No, they do not have an internal recruitment team and they were not utilizing online job advertisements.

Why was this a real problem for the client?

Without internal recruiting resources, they faced significant hurdles in identifying and attracting top-tier leadership talent. This role was critical because the company needed someone with proven expertise to strategically grow their service division, strengthen operational efficiency, and drive profitability. The absence of a qualified leader was slowing down the company’s ability to expand its service offerings and capitalize on market opportunities. The client required a candidate with deep HVAC service experience, strong leadership skills, and the ability to implement growth strategies—qualities that are highly competitive and difficult to source.

How did this opportunity help the candidate?

The candidate had recently been downsized from a previous leadership role and was actively seeking a new role. They possessed extensive experience in HVAC service management and a proven track record of driving business growth—making them an ideal fit for the client’s needs. This opportunity positioned the candidate for a fresh start in a stable, growth-oriented organization.
