We are seeking a Senior Project Manager to lead complex water and wastewater infrastructure projects in the Richmond, Virginia area. This role will oversee projects from initial planning and design through construction, commissioning, and closeout, ensuring delivery in accordance with scope, schedule, budget, quality, and safety requirements. The successful candidate will serve as a senior point of contact for clients, project teams, contractors, regulatory agencies, and community stakeholders while promoting effective communication and strong working relationships.

Key responsibilities include developing and managing project execution plans, schedules, budgets, forecasts, contracts, and risk registers; coordinating multidisciplinary engineering and construction teams; reviewing technical deliverables; monitoring progress and financial performance; and implementing corrective actions when needed. You will lead project meetings, prepare progress reports and presentations, support proposals and business development activities, and help identify opportunities to improve operational efficiency.

Excellent written and verbal communication, financial and organizational skills, sound judgment, and the ability to manage competing priorities are essential. Occasional travel to project sites, client meetings, and construction locations may be required.
