    • Provide project management on mid- to large-sized projects, including developing and tracking project schedules, budgets, invoicing, and coordination with clients, technical staff and subconsultants. 
    • Work on environmental documents and entitlements related to high-profile infrastructure projects, with particular emphasis on energy sector projects. 
    • Support projects across the Midwest and other U.S. markets by leveraging AECOM's national technical and project delivery platform. 
    • Contribute to marketing and business development, preparation of proposals, and formulating proposal cost estimates as a seller-doer. 
    • Mentor and develop junior and mid-level staff by reviewing work products, providing technical guidance, and supporting career development.
