THE OPPORTUNITY

Our client is a privately held northern New Jersey consulting engineering firm, in business for over forty years, serving municipalities, utilities, authorities, county and state agencies, and private clients.

• Direction of the design team producing drawings, specifications, basis of design reports and contract documents


• Front facing regulatory coordination with NJDEP, including Treatment Works Approvals, NJPDES permits and water quality management planning


• Client relationships with municipal and authority clients that you carry after the project closes

The practice spans PFAS treatment (GAC, ion exchange, membranes), BNR, SBR and MBR processes, solids handling, distribution and collection systems, pump stations, force mains, vacuum sewer, lead service line replacement, wastewater management planning and asset management.

WHAT IS ON OFFER

• Base salary of $120,000 to $160,000 depending on experience, plus a discretionary year end bonus based on individual, team and company performance
