Senior Land Development Project Manager
đź“Ť Owings Mills, MD | Baltimore, MD
Lead High-Impact Projects Across the Mid-Atlantic
An exciting leadership opportunity is available for a Senior Land Development Project Manager to play a pivotal role in delivering complex civil/site projects throughout the Baltimore–Washington region.
This is more than a project management role—it’s an opportunity to drive strategy, mentor teams, and build lasting client partnerships while shaping communities through high-profile land development and urban redevelopment projects.
The Opportunity
As a Senior Project Manager, you will take ownership of large-scale, complex land development projects from concept through construction. You’ll serve as a trusted advisor to clients, lead high-performing teams, and contribute to the continued growth of a dynamic, multidisciplinary practice.
What You’ll Do
- Lead with impact — Manage civil/site development projects from planning and design through permitting, construction, and closeout
- Drive performance — Oversee scope, schedule, budget, staffing, and quality across multiple concurrent projects
- Own client relationships — Serve as the primary point of contact and trusted partner across public and private sector clients
- Mentor and inspire — Guide and develop engineers at all levels while fostering a collaborative, high-performance culture
- Ensure technical excellence — Review plans, reports, and specifications for quality, accuracy, and compliance
- Navigate complex approvals — Lead permitting efforts and engage with agencies, municipalities, and stakeholders
- Grow the business — Support proposals, develop scopes and fees, and contribute to strategic pursuits
- Stay technically engaged — Provide direction in site design, grading, stormwater, utilities, and permitting
- Manage financial performance — Oversee project profitability, invoicing, forecasting, and cash flow
What You Bring
- Bachelor’s degree in Civil Engineering (Master’s preferred)
- Professional Engineer (PE) in MD, DC, or VA (or ability to obtain)
- 15+ years of progressive experience in land development engineering
- Proven track record leading projects, managing teams, and building client relationships
- Strong knowledge of regional permitting processes (MD/DC/VA)
- Proficiency in AutoCAD Civil 3D or MicroStation
- Ability to manage multiple complex projects simultaneously
- Strong leadership, communication, and stakeholder engagement skills
What Sets You Apart
- Expertise in grading, drainage, stormwater management, utilities, and erosion control
- Experience with stormwater modeling tools (Hydraflow, HydroCAD, etc.)
- Active involvement in industry organizations or business development
- Experience with proposals, scope negotiation, and managing additional services
Why This Role Stands Out
- Leadership visibility — Play a key role influencing projects, teams, and client relationships
- High-impact portfolio — Work on diverse projects ranging from large-scale developments to complex urban sites
- Growth opportunity — Be part of an expanding practice with strong upward mobility
- Collaborative environment — Partner with top-tier professionals in a multidisciplinary setting
- Meaningful work — Help shape the communities and infrastructure of the Mid-Atlantic region
If you’re ready to step into a senior leadership role where your expertise and vision will directly impact projects, clients, and team success, this is an opportunity worth exploring. Please apply now.
