Planner

Your Opportunity

Stantec is seeking a Senior Planner, Brownfields Redevelopment & Implementation to join the Infrastructure business line in Florida. 

As a Senior Planner within our Infrastructure business line, you will play a key role in Stantec’s brownfields redevelopment and asset transformation practice. This client-facing role will support communities as they transform underutilized, contaminated, or challenged properties into catalytic community assets. You will manage and support EPA brownfields grants, redevelopment planning efforts, funding and economic development strategies, community engagement, and implementation roadmaps. Our work does not stop at visioning—we help communities identify practical pathways for redevelopment, and project delivery so plans can move from concept toward construction, reuse, and long-term community benefit. This role may be based in West Palm Beach, Miami, Orlando or Jacksonville Florida, Atlanta, GA, New Orleans, LA, and Louisville, KY. 

Your Key Responsibilities

• Serve as a client-facing project manager and strategic advisor for brownfields redevelopment, revitalization, and implementation projects.
• Manage and support EPA brownfields grants, including work plans, budgets, schedules, reporting support, consultant coordination, eligible activities, and implementation tracking.
• Develop redevelopment strategies that connect land use, infrastructure, environmental conditions, market opportunities, funding sources, and community priorities.
• Help communities move projects from visioning and planning into actionable implementation steps, including funding pursuits, partner coordination, site readiness, and next-phase project delivery.
• Coordinate with environmental, planning, economic development, engineering, landscape architecture, funding, and design professionals to advance redevelopment outcomes.
• Lead or support community engagement, stakeholder interviews, public meetings, workshops, and presentations for municipal clients, redevelopment agencies, community partners, and public/private stakeholders.
• Proactively identify project risks, scope issues, schedule concerns, decision points, and opportunities to maintain momentum and keep projects moving forward.
• Mentor and direct junior team members, including delegating tasks, reviewing work products, and helping staff understand project goals, client expectations, and implementation priorities.
• Communicate effectively with clients and project teams to resolve project issues, present findings and recommendations, and deliver services that support client goals.
• Manage work within defined scopes, budgets, schedules, and quality expectations.
