• Lead and develop both office and field survey professionals
• Shape department processes, technology, and workflow improvements
• Oversee project delivery, staffing, scheduling, and resource planning
• Serve as the PSM of record, providing professional oversight and technical review

• Strong knowledge of survey production, project delivery, and client management
• Experience with AutoCAD Civil 3D and modern survey technologies
• Familiarity with LiDAR, scanning, GNSS/GPS, and UAV workflows

Why This Role Stands Out

High level of autonomy and influence

Visible impact on department performance and growth

Blend of leadership, operations, and technical responsibility

Long-term career growth within a collaborative environment

This role is ideal for a survey professional who enjoys mentoring others, improving processes, building strong client relationships, and making a meaningful impact beyond day-to-day project delivery.
