Many of the municipal and utility clients the firm started with are still clients today. The water resources practice is adding a Project Manager to carry its next wave of municipal and authority work.

  • 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.
  • Funding coordination with the NJ Infrastructure Bank, NJ Water Bank and State Revolving Fund programs.

  • 8+ years of water and wastewater experience in a consulting environment, with demonstrated ownership of scope, schedule and budget.
  • New Jersey PE license, or a PE in another state with the ability to obtain NJ licensure by comity.
  • A strong EIT with the PE exam scheduled will be considered.
  • Hands on design authorship earlier in your career: drawings, specifications, basis of design reports and permit applications you personally prepared.
  • Working knowledge of NJDEP regulations and the permitting process.
  • Base salary of $120,000 to $160,000 depending on experience, plus a discretionary year end bonus based on individual, team and company performance.
  • 401(k) match of 4% from the company when you contribute 5%.
  • Medical, dental and vision coverage, 15 days of paid time off, and flexible hours.
  • Reimbursement for tuition, professional license and association fees.
  • Hybrid flexibility Candidates must be based in the United States and must be legally authorized to work in the U.S. without the need for current or future sponsorship.
  • Candidates should be within commuting distance of Morris County, New Jersey, or prepared to fully relocate.
