Building Services Director

Company: Archer Mechanical, Salt Lake City, Utah

Position: Building Services Director

Compensation: Compensation: Base salary of $160,000–$180,000, with total target compensation (base plus performance bonus) of $227,000–$256,000. Variable pay is tied to departmental and company net margin, with no ceiling above target.

Archer Mechanical is currently looking for a dedicated Building Services Director to join our service department and lead and drive our service team to consistently best-in-class performance. This is a senior leadership role reporting directly to the CEO, with full ownership of the department.

Archer Mechanical specializes in sustainable mechanical and plumbing systems, providing a design-build, design-assist, new construction, additions, remodels, retrofits, service and preventative maintenance.

The organization has been established since 1987 and has continued to grow rapidly over the past 38 years. Archer Mechanical produces a higher-value product cost-effectively and efficiently using progressive construction planning technologies, advanced construction materials, and manufacturing methods, reducing safety risks, schedule durations, and congestion on the job site while enhancing the construction results.

At Archer, service isn’t a support function - it’s a lifecycle business. Every interaction with a facility, its owner, and its operator either builds equity or erodes it. We’re looking for a leader who turns every customer handoff into a lasting partnership, and who builds the operating excellence that makes it repeatable.

This is a builder’s role, not a player-coach seat. You won’t run dispatch or coach technicians day to day - you’ll lead through your Service Manager and Dispatcher and spend your time where it matters most: customer relationships, growth strategy, financial performance, and developing the team beneath you. Our passion at Archer is Building People to Build our Communities. Here, developing people isn’t adjacent to the work. It is the work.

This is a primarily in-person role based at our Salt Lake City headquarters, with some remote flexibility and travel limited to planned events and continuing education. A hybrid schedule is possible once tenure and performance benchmarks are established.

If you’re not already in the area, we’ll support your relocation - and Utah sells itself. The best snow on earth, world-class outdoor recreation in every direction, and a clean, safe, family-oriented place to build both a career and a life.

Why This Role

• Real ownership: You report directly to the CEO and operate as a peer to our Construction, Operations, Sales, and Centralized Services leaders - owning pricing, compensation structure, process design, hiring, and the full operating system of Building Services.
• A focused, high-leverage mandate: Three clear service lanes - preventative maintenance, time-and-materials, and pull-through. No sprawling mixed-scope portfolio. You pour your energy into elevating execution and building a best-in-class operating system.
• A steady pipeline: Our $135M construction operation continuously hands off new long-term service customers. You’re not chasing logos - you’re converting handoffs into lifecycle relationships.
