We’re looking for a thoughtful, steady, relationship‑driven Project Manager who brings both technical expertise and a people‑first leadership style. You’ll lead transportation and roadway design projects with precision, clarity, and confidence — while mentoring less experienced engineers and fostering strong client partnerships.

Our ideal Project Manager is reliable, curious, collaborative, and genuinely invested in the success of their team. You stay calm under pressure, communicate openly, and bring a proactive, solutions‑oriented mindset to every challenge. You understand the bottom line, but you also understand people — and you know that great projects are built on both.

• Manage multiple transportation design projects from concept through completion
• Ensure projects are delivered on time, within scope, and within budget
• Build and maintain strong relationships with clients, team members, and partners
• Communicate clearly and consistently across departments and with external stakeholders
• Delegate tasks effectively and support team members with guidance and mentorship
• Provide technical leadership and quality control throughout the design process
• Lead project reviews and ensure compliance with standards, specifications, and expectations
• Participate in the development of RFPs, RFQs, and project proposals
• Resolve project‑related challenges with professionalism and sound judgment
• Apply practical engineering knowledge to produce safe, efficient, cost‑effective designs
• Continue learning key elements of civil engineering design relevant to our projects

What We’re Looking For

Required
• 8+ years of design project management experience
• Strong background in design project engineering
• Proficiency with CAD/BIM software
• Bachelor’s degree in Civil Engineering
• Active Professional Engineer (PE) License

Preferred
• 3+ years of progressive roadway design experience
• Experience with Wisconsin DOT and municipal roadway projects
• Familiarity with project contracts, specifications, and PS&E
• Ability to perform QA/QC on design documents
• Experience scoping projects
• Ability to apply field experience to design decisions

What We Offer
• Competitive base salary
• Health, dental, and vision insurance
• Life and short/long‑term disability insurance
• Company‑matched retirement plan
• Paid time off and holidays
• Modern equipment and technology
• Comfortable office environment with hybrid options
• Long‑term career growth opportunities

Where We Work
We proudly serve Rock and Walworth Counties with offices in Beloit, Janesville, and Elkhorn. Our strategic plan includes continued growth in Beloit/Janesville and expanded services in Walworth County. We provide Civil, Municipal, Transportation, and Land Surveying services to both public and private clients throughout Wisconsin and Northern Illinois.
