Civil Engineering Project Manager – Land Development - Build Communities. Lead Projects. Own Your Future.
Are you an experienced Civil Engineer and Project Manager looking for an opportunity where you can lead meaningful land development projects, work directly with clients, mentor other engineers, and have a real stake in the company’s success?
We’re looking for an experienced Civil Engineering Project Manager to join a collaborative and forward-thinking team focused on land development. This is an opportunity to take ownership of projects from entitlements through construction support while playing an important role in client relationships, business development, and the continued growth of the practice.
Why You’ll Love Working Here
100% Employee-Owned (ESOP) – Share directly in the company’s long-term success.
Work on exciting land development projects that help shape and grow communities.
Join a collaborative team that values innovation, technical excellence, work-life balance, and having fun.
Hybrid work flexibility after 90 days.
Half-day Fridays to help maintain a healthy work-life balance.
Competitive benefits including medical, dental, vision, and FSA options.
401(k) with company match plus discretionary bonuses.
Paid time off and company holidays.
What You’ll Do
As a Project Manager, you’ll serve as a key technical and client-facing leader responsible for successfully guiding land development projects from concept through construction.
Identify project design criteria and develop effective, practical engineering designs.
Lead the planning and execution of land development projects from entitlements through construction support.
Serve as a primary point of contact for clients and build strong, long-term relationships.
Lead and coordinate plan processing with municipalities and other public agencies.
Provide technical leadership, mentoring, and guidance to engineering staff.
Help manage project workflow, schedules, and deliverables to ensure projects remain on track.
Participate in marketing, business development, lead generation, and pursuit of new opportunities.
Collaborate with internal teams, clients, agencies, and other project stakeholders to successfully deliver projects.
What We’re Looking For
Bachelor’s degree in Civil Engineering or a related discipline from an accredited four-year college or university.
10+ years of civil engineering design experience, preferably within land development.
3+ years of experience in a project leadership role, serving as a central design resource, mentor, and leader responsible for project workflow.
Professional Engineer (PE) license required.
Demonstrated ability to manage land development projects from entitlements through construction support.
Strong technical design and problem-solving skills.
Proven ability to build strong client relationships and work effectively with public agencies.
Interest and experience in business development and identifying new project opportunities.
Why This Opportunity Stands Out
This is more than a Project Manager position. You’ll have the opportunity to lead projects, develop people, build client relationships, contribute to business growth, and share directly in the success of the company through employee ownership.
If you’re an experienced Civil Engineer/PE who enjoys land development and is looking for a company where your expertise, leadership, and contributions are genuinely valued, we’d like to hear from you.
