Company Description
At KPFF Consulting Engineers, we are more than just an engineering design firm. For over 65 years, we have dedicated ourselves to innovative, sustainable engineering that shapes the built environment and tackles complex infrastructure challenges. Our team culture emphasizes balance, growth, and well-being, supporting each member’s professional journey with flexibility, generous benefits, and a collaborative approach to work-life integration.
With over 1,500 professionals across 36 offices nationwide, KPFF’s decentralized structure allows each office the flexibility to pursue projects aligned with their regional strengths.
Job Description
We’re hiring a Civil Project Manager to lead complex civil engineering projects in our growing New York office, located in Tribeca. This senior-level role is ideal for an engineer ready to take full ownership of project delivery, strengthen and expand client relationships, and help drive the continued growth of our practice.
At KPFF, you’ll manage diverse projects from start to finish, mentor a talented team, and play an active role in developing new business, all while leveraging KPFF’s strong reputation in the AEC industry. As you grow with us, you’ll also have opportunities to pursue pathways to ownership, reflecting our commitment to rewarding leadership and long-term contributions.
This is a hybrid role, with an expectation of being in the office three days a week for client meetings, collaboration, and professional development. While we offer flexibility, this is not a fully remote position. For a Project Manager, in-person time is especially important for building client trust, mentoring staff, and strengthening team relationships.
What You’ll Be Doing
- Serve as the primary point of contact for clients, ensuring strong relationships and successful project outcomes.
- Lead project delivery from proposal to completion, managing schedules, budgets, contracts, and quality.
- Drive business development by pursuing new opportunities, writing proposals, and expanding KPFF’s client base.
- Oversee and review technical design work for site development and infrastructure projects.
- Navigate New York and New Jersey permitting, zoning, and agency coordination (e.g., DOB, DEP, DOT, and local utilities) to ensure compliance and smooth approvals.
