Civil Project Manager – Site Development

We're looking for a licensed Professional Engineer to take ownership of site development and land development projects from initial planning through final approval — serving as Engineer of Record and the primary client contact throughout.

This is a client-facing leadership role for someone who's as comfortable running a budget and a team as they are reviewing a grading plan. You'll work directly with clients, municipalities, architects, surveyors, contractors and internal teams to move projects from concept through approvals and construction.

What You'll Do

• Serve as Engineer of Record and lead civil/site development projects from scope through completion
• Act as primary point of contact for clients, maintaining day-to-day project communication
• Develop project scopes, schedules, budgets and fee estimates
• Direct stormwater management/BMP design, grading, utilities and site plan development
• Coordinate civil design, engineering, surveying and other technical disciplines
• Review plans, specifications, calculations and technical reports
• Guide projects through municipal review and permitting processes
• Manage project budgets, contracts, scope changes and invoicing
• Identify issues early and resolve them before they become client problems
• Participate in proposals, client presentations and business development
• Mentor and provide technical direction to junior engineers and project staff
• Maintain quality control on all deliverables before they reach the client

What You Bring

• 5-10 years of civil engineering, site development or land development experience
• Current New Jersey PE license required
• Demonstrated experience serving as Engineer of Record, managing projects independently
• Project management experience in a consulting engineering environment
• Strong technical knowledge of site design, stormwater management/BMP design, grading and utilities
• Experience with commercial, residential, municipal or mixed-use development projects
• Working knowledge of municipal review, permitting and regulatory processes
• AutoCAD Civil 3D and stormwater design software proficiency required
• Strong client communication and relationship-management skills
• Bachelor's degree in Civil Engineering or related field

The Opportunity

• $120,000-$160,000 depending on experience
• Full-time, established engineering firm with room for professional growth
• Ownership of projects and direct client relationships
• Collaborative team of experienced engineers and technical staff
• Permanent U.S. work authorization required. No sponsorship, H-1B, OPT, CPT or C2C.
