Active Orlando submarkets: Lake Nona, International Drive, Winter Park, Sanford, Kissimmee, Downtown Orlando, UCF / East Orlando.
Searches in this market typically center on service leadership for hospitality and healthcare route work, plus estimating and project management for contractors chasing the region's hospitality and institutional backlog.
Ranges reflect base only for commercial mechanical roles; total comp typically adds 10–25% via bonus, vehicle allowance, and benefits.
Florida commercial HVAC contractors must hold a Certified Class A or Class B Air Conditioning Contractor license through DBPR at the qualifier level.
Consultative B2B sales into facility managers, property owners, GCs, and engineering firms. Commercial HVAC / mechanical service or retrofit experience preferred.
Base salary plus commission on booked revenue or gross margin, with accelerators. Top Orlando sales engineers routinely earn well into six figures.
Roles range from named-account hunter models to geographic territories across the Orlando metro and surrounding regions.
Hospitality and theme park capital work, the Lake Nona healthcare corridor, and convention and airport expansion together create year-round commercial service and project demand.
