Mechanical Site Inspector, Greater Toronto Area

Mechanical Site Inspector (Building Systems) | GTA, ON

The Opportunity

We are partnering with a well-established M & E consulting engineering firm to support the hire of a Mechanical Site Inspector. This role is primarily site-based, supporting high-rise and low-rise multi-residential developments (95% of projects) across the GTA, with occasional exposure to other building types as required.

Join a stable, close-knit team where inspectors typically build long-term careers. This opportunity is ideal for an experienced mechanical professional who enjoys being on-site, identifying issues, and ensuring construction aligns with design intent - without the high-pressure environment often associated with consulting.

Key Responsibilities

• Conduct on-site inspections of mechanical systems (HVAC, plumbing) during construction.
• Monitor work completed by general contractors and M&E subcontractors.
• Identify deficiencies, non-compliance issues, and construction discrepancies.
• Prepare detailed field reports documenting site conditions and findings.
• Track and follow up on deficiencies to ensure timely resolution.
• Coordinate with contractors, consultants, and project stakeholders on-site.
• Ensure installations align with drawings, specifications, and applicable codes.

Qualifications

• 10+ years of experience in mechanical construction, site inspection, or related field roles.
• Strong hands-on experience working with general contractors and M&E trades.
• Mechanical expertise is mandatory; electrical knowledge is considered an asset.
• Proven experience in residential construction projects (high-rise or low-rise).
• Strong report writing and documentation skills.
• Diploma in Mechanical Engineering Technology or related field is considered an asset.
• Ability to work independently on-site and make practical, experience-based decisions.
