Make a Visible Impact on Sandy Springs

The City of Sandy Springs is investing in the people, systems, and leadership needed to deliver transportation capital projects from plan to ribbon-cutting—on time, on budget, and with lasting value for the community.

We are seeking a driven, solutions-focused TSPLOST Project Delivery Unit Manager to lead the City’s Project Delivery Unit and advance a dynamic Public Works capital program. This is a hands-on leadership opportunity for someone who views a stalled project as a challenge to solve—not simply a status to report.

As the Project Delivery Unit Manager, you will lead staff, consultants, and right-of-way activities across the full project life cycle: early planning, design, procurement, property acquisition, construction, closeout, and public reporting. You will establish strong project-controls practices, improve delivery systems, manage risks before they become barriers, and keep high-visibility infrastructure projects moving forward.

If you are an experienced capital-delivery leader who can bring people, processes, data, and technology together to produce results, we invite you to apply.

Essential Duties and Responsibilities

• Lead, coach, assign, and evaluate Project Delivery Unit staff; manage consultant resources; and build a culture of ownership, accountability, and follow-through.
• Coordinate the planning and delivery of the City’s capital project portfolio with project management staff, consultants, internal departments, external agencies, and community stakeholders.
• Develop and maintain integrated master schedules and project-level schedules using Oracle Primavera P6 and the Trimble Unity Construct Schedule module.
• Establish schedule standards and lead critical-path analysis, milestone tracking, recovery planning, schedule-risk analysis, and schedule-performance reporting.
• Serve as the department’s subject-matter expert and administrator for Trimble Unity Construct (formerly e-Builder), including system configuration, workflow design, user access, training, reporting, document controls, data quality, and process integration.
• Establish and administer project-control processes that keep projects aligned with approved scope, schedules, budgets, funding requirements, procurement strategies, and delivery commitments.
• Review, recommend, and manage approval processes for changes to project scope, schedule, budget, procurement strategy, and project authorization documents.
• Directly supervise right-of-way staff, including workload management, performance evaluation, professional development, and coordination with project teams.
• Maintain a current, actionable view of the City’s capital portfolio and prepare clear executive, management, City Council, and public-facing reports.
• Communicate project status, performance measures, risks, issues, decisions needed, and recommended corrective actions to leadership and stakeholders.
• Establish practical risk-management practices; identify and elevate material delivery risks early; and personally lead mitigation and recovery efforts for off-track projects through resolution.
• Identify opportunities to improve project-delivery tools, systems, workflows, and practices—and lead implementation without waiting for direction.
• Support rotational on-call responsibilities and Emergency Operations Center activities, as assigned.
• Perform other related duties as assigned.

Minimum Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in civil engineering, construction management, planning, project management, or a closely related field.
• Seven (7) years of progressively responsible experience in public works, capital project delivery, engineering, construction, project controls, or a related discipline.
• At least three (3) years of supervisory experience.
• Project Management Professional (PMP) certification, or the ability to obtain and maintain PMP certification within two (2) years of hire.
• Demonstrated working knowledge of Trimble Unity Construct (formerly e-Builder), or a comparable capital program management system, including project controls, workflow administration, scheduling, reporting, document management, and user support.
• An equivalent combination of education, training, certifications, and experience that provides the required knowledge, skills, and abilities may be considered.
• Valid Georgia driver’s license.

Preferred Qualifications

• Professional licensure or accreditation such as Professional Engineer (PE), American Institute of Certified Planners (AICP), Registered Architect (RA/AIA), Certified Construction Manager (CCM), or a comparable credential.
• Planning and Scheduling Professional (PSP) certification.
• Experience delivering locally administered, federally assisted, or state-funded transportation and public infrastructure projects.
• Experience with transportation capital improvement program development, public procurement, construction contract administration, right-of-way acquisition, utility coordination, and grant-funded project controls.
• Experience with the Georgia Department of Transportation (GDOT) Plan Development Process or a similar capital project delivery system.
• Experience coordinating schedules with state agencies, consultants, utility providers, and other external partners.
• Experience developing executive dashboards, portfolio reports, and data-informed performance measures for a municipal capital program.
• A demonstrated record of establishing new processes, systems, or teams and delivering sustainable results.

Knowledge, Skills, and Abilities

The successful candidate will demonstrate:

• Strong knowledge of municipal public works operations, capital project delivery methods, design and construction practices, and project governance.
• Expertise in scheduling, critical-path methodology, budget forecasting, progress measurement, change control, risk management, and project closeout.
• Familiarity with applicable City policies and state and federal funding, procurement, environmental, right-of-way, and records requirements.
• Ability to analyze complex schedule, financial, project, and risk data; identify dependencies and variances; and provide clear, practical recommendations for decision-makers.
• Ability to prepare and deliver reports, correspondence, presentations, schedules, dashboards, spreadsheets, and database records using modern office and project-management tools.
• Proven ability to lead cross-functional teams, resolve conflicts, negotiate priorities, and exercise sound judgment in high-visibility and time-sensitive situations.
• A proactive, persistent approach to overcoming setbacks, ambiguity, and competing priorities.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to engage effectively with staff, elected officials, agency partners, consultants, and the public.
• The ability to quickly learn, adopt, and champion technology across the department.
• A practical leadership style that creates accountability while minimizing unnecessary administrative burden.
