This is more than a traditional project management role — it’s an opportunity to play a key role in a growing market. You’ll lead meaningful municipal infrastructure projects that directly impact the communities we serve, while building strong relationships with local agencies and stakeholders.

We’re looking for a licensed engineer who thrives in a client-facing role — someone who takes ownership of project delivery, leads collaborative teams, and enjoys guiding projects from concept through completion. You’ll step into an active backlog of work with immediate opportunities to contribute and help expand our presence across Utah.

At Civil Science, you won’t just contribute — you’ll have a stake in what we’re building. As a 100% employee-owned company, our culture is rooted in accountability, collaboration, and long-term thinking, giving you the opportunity to grow your career while helping shape the future of our Utah operations.

• Serve as a primary client contact for public works projects across Utah
• Manage scope, schedule, and budget for multiple active municipal projects
• Lead and coordinate multidisciplinary project teams
• Deliver high-quality infrastructure projects for city, county, and state agencies
• Support business development efforts, including proposals and client relationship growth
• Collaborate with leadership to expand backlog and strengthen market presence
• Mentor junior staff and contribute to team development
• Ensure projects meet quality, risk, and compliance standards

What We’re Looking For

• Strong project management and organizational skills
• Ability to build and maintain client relationships
• Experience working with public agency clients
• Ability to lead teams and drive accountability
• Strong communication and problem-solving skills
