Some engineering leadership roles are glorified admin jobs. This isn’t one of them.
We’re partnered with a growing engineering consultancy looking for a Civil Engineering Team Lead who can operate at both the technical and commercial level — someone who knows how to lead projects, build client trust, mentor engineers, and keep momentum moving when deadlines tighten.
You’ll be stepping into a visible leadership role with influence across project delivery, team development, and regional growth.
If you’ve built your career in land development and are now looking for a seat at the table — not just another project queue — this is worth a conversation.
What You’ll Actually Be Doing
- Leading civil engineering and land development projects from early planning through delivery
- Managing and mentoring engineers, designers, and junior project staff
- Acting as a key point of contact for clients, municipalities, and stakeholders
- Reviewing designs, calculations, plans, and technical documentation
- Keeping projects commercially healthy — schedule, scope, staffing, and budget
- Supporting proposals, business development activity, and long-term client relationships
- Coordinating across disciplines to keep delivery streamlined and efficient
- Helping shape internal processes, standards, and team growth strategy
The Kind of Background That Fits
- PE license required
- 10+ years within civil engineering / land development
- Strong experience managing complex commercial, residential, or municipal projects
- Comfortable leading teams, clients, and conversations — not just designs
- Knowledge of permitting, municipal processes, and development regulations
- Experience with Civil3D, AutoCAD, or similar platforms
- Bonus points for water/wastewater infrastructure exposure
What They’re Looking For Beyond the Resume
This team values people who:
- don’t wait to be told what to do
- can handle pressure without creating chaos
- understand the business side of engineering
- genuinely enjoy developing junior talent
- can walk into a client meeting and sound like a partner, not just a consultant
Why This Opportunity Stands Out
There’s a genuine growth track here. The leadership team wants people who can help build something — not just maintain it.
You’ll have visibility, autonomy, and the chance to influence both project direction and team culture without getting buried in layers of corporate process.
Package
- Competitive base salary
- Performance-based bonus structure
- 401(k) with company match
- Full medical, dental & vision coverage
- PTO + holidays
- Professional development support & tuition assistance
- Long-term progression into senior leadership
