As the office leader and team leader, you'll oversee operations, mentor and grow a multidisciplinary team, serve as a technical authority, and act as a trusted advisor to clients.

  • Anticipate and resolve technical challenges to keep projects moving efficiently

  • Serve as a go-to technical resource for both staff and clients

Project & Financial Management

  • Lead proposal development, fee negotiations, and contract execution

  • Monitor project financial performance and guide PMs toward consistent delivery

  • Ensure schedules, budgets, and quality standards are met across all projects

  • Contribute to overall group and cross-discipline profitability

Quality & Client Engagement

  • Ensure rigorous technical review and quality control at all project stages

  • Leverage firmwide expertise to deliver best-in-class solutions

  • Build long-term, trusted relationships with municipal and utility clients

  • Identify expansion opportunities with existing clients and support new pursuits

  • Partner with business development and sales teams to grow the practice


What Our Client Is Looking ForEducation & Credentials
