  • P.E. License and ability to acquire PE Licensure in Virginia within 6 months.
  • Strong project management experience with municipal water or wastewater projects.
  • Excellent technical writing skills and communication abilities.

Responsibilities

  • Lead and direct the development of water and wastewater projects as a client-facing project manager.
  • Manage the planning, design, and construction administration of projects to ensure compliance with contracts and regulations.
  • Communicate with clients to establish goals and objectives for project teams.
  • Provide technical expertise on multi-disciplined projects as a design leader or technical advisor.
  • Supervise and mentor junior level engineers and technical staff.
