Position Summary

Seeking a Florida-licensed Professional Engineer to lead and grow a Land Development practice in Central Florida. This individual will operate with a high degree of autonomy and will be responsible for managing a team, overseeing a strong book of work, and serving as a senior client-facing leader without requiring daily oversight from firm principals.

The firm maintains a diversified and active backlog across multiple sectors. Current high-growth areas include large-scale retail and entertainment developments, nationally recognized commercial projects, and several substantial mixed-use communities. The firm also continues steady work in multifamily, single-family, industrial, and other private-sector development sectors. Healthcare is an emerging growth area with strategic initiatives underway that are expected to generate sustained project flow.

This is a leadership opportunity for an experienced PE ready to take ownership of project delivery, team performance, and client relationships within a multidisciplinary civil engineering environment.

Responsibilities

  • Lead and mentor a team of engineers and designers
  • Oversee multiple residential, commercial, mixed-use, retail, industrial, and healthcare-related development projects
  • Manage scope, budgets, schedules, and financial performance
  • Serve as primary point of contact for clients and regulatory agencies
  • Direct permitting efforts in Central Florida (municipal and county agencies)
  • Coordinate with in-house planning, surveying, and related teams
  • Contribute to project pursuits and strategic growth initiatives

Requirements

Qualifications

  • Florida PE license (required)
  • 12+ years of land development experience
  • Proven ability to independently run projects and supervise staff
  • Strong Central Florida permitting experience
  • Experience in residential and commercial development
  • Proficiency in AutoCAD Civil 3D

What This Is

A true practice-level leadership role with autonomy, sector diversity, and long-term growth opportunity.
