Job

Our client is growing, and we're excited to expand our Transportation Engineering Team. As a well-established, multi discipline civil engineering and surveying firm with more than 107 years of service, we've built a reputation for excellence, integrity, and long-term client relationships. Our team of 40+ professionals is known for low turnover, strong mentorship, and a culture that puts people first.

If you're a seasoned engineer who thrives on leading projects, building relationships, and shaping the infrastructure of our communities, client may be the perfect fit.

Transportation Design Project Manager

Client is looking for a thoughtful, steady, relationship driven Project Manager who brings both technical expertise and a people first leadership style. You'll lead transportation and roadway design projects with precision, clarity, and confidence - while mentoring less experienced engineers and fostering strong client partnerships.

Our ideal Project Manager is reliable, curious, collaborative, and genuinely invested in the success of their team. You stay calm under pressure, communicate openly, and bring a proactive, solutions-oriented mindset to every challenge. You understand the bottom line, but you also understand people - and you know that great projects are built on both.

Description

• Manage multiple transportation design projects from concept through completion.
• Ensure projects are delivered on time, within scope, and within budget.

• Provide technical leadership and quality control throughout the design process.
• Lead project reviews and ensure compliance with standards, specifications, and expectations.
• Participate in the development of RFPs, RFQs, and project proposals.
• Resolve project related challenges with professionalism and sound judgment.
• Apply practical engineering knowledge to produce safe, efficient, cost-effective designs.
• Continue learning key elements of civil engineering design relevant to our projects.

Required

• 8+ years of design project management experience.
• Strong background in design project engineering.
• Proficiency with CAD/BIM software.
• Bachelor's degree in Civil Engineering.
• Active Professional Engineer (PE) License.

Preferred

• 3+ years of progressive roadway design experience.
• Experience with Wisconsin DOT and municipal roadway projects.
• Familiarity with project contracts, specifications, and PS&E.
• Ability to perform QA/QC on design documents.
• Experience scoping projects.
• Ability to apply field experience to design decisions.

Benefits

• Competitive base salary.
• Health, dental, and vision insurance.
• Life and short/long term disability insurance.
• Company matched retirement plan.
• Paid time off and holidays.
• Modern equipment and technology.
• Comfortable office environment with hybrid options.
• Long term career growth opportunities.
