  • Provide senior technical guidance on projects involving steel, concrete, masonry, cast iron, and wood structures.
  • Serve as a technical resource for complex conditions including façade deterioration, structural stabilization, historic construction, and forensic investigations.
  • Engage specialty consultants and senior leadership when needed to elevate project outcomes.

Manage Financial & Project Performance

  • Partner with Project Managers to oversee project budgeting, staffing plans, schedules, and contractual requirements.
  • Monitor studio and project-level financial performance, including profitability, utilization, and billing progress.

  • Communicate studio performance, staffing needs, and priorities to the Management Team.
  • Participate in strategic planning and contribute to firm-wide initiatives impacting growth and operations.

Lead Projects

  • Serve as Project Manager for selected structural engineering projects (approximately 25% of the role).
