Senior Project Manager-Water
Senior Project Manager - Water/Wastewater
A well-established, employee-owned engineering consulting firm with a strong reputation in municipal infrastructure is seeking a Senior Project Manager to support the continued growth of its Water/Wastewater practice. This is an opportunity to join a firm known for its long-standing client relationships, technical excellence, and collaborative culture.
The Opportunity
- Lead delivery of complex Water/Wastewater projects across treatment and conveyance (inside and outside the fence)
- Manage projects from planning and design through construction and closeout
- Serve as the primary point of contact for municipal clients, building and maintaining trusted relationships
- Oversee multidisciplinary teams, ensuring quality, schedule, and budget are met
- Contribute to business development efforts including proposals, client engagement, and pursuit strategy
What They're Looking For
- 10+ years of experience within the Water/Wastewater space
- Professional Engineer (P.E.) license - required
- Strong background delivering municipal W/WW projects
- Proven experience managing projects and leading teams
- Ability to develop and maintain long-term client relationships
- Experience across both treatment and conveyance is highly desirable
Why This Opportunity Stands Out
- Employee-owned structure that rewards long-term contribution and performance
- Strong reputation with municipalities, leading to a stable and repeat client base
- Consistent project pipeline with a focus on long-term partnerships rather than one-off work
- Collaborative, low-ego culture with accessibility to senior leadership
- Emphasis on technical quality and practical delivery, not just volume
- Clear path for progression into senior leadership roles
