Senior Water / Wastewater Project Manager

At HDR, our employee-owners are fully engaged in creating a welcoming environment where each of us is valued and respected, a place where everyone is empowered to bring their authentic selves and novel ideas to work every day. As we foster a culture of inclusion throughout our company and within our communities, we constantly ask ourselves: What is our impact on the world? Each and every role throughout our organization makes a difference in our ability to change the world for the better. Read further to learn how you could help make great things possible not only in your community, but around the world.

HDR has an exciting opportunity for a proven leader and technically exceptional individual in the field of water and wastewater to join our Florida Water Business Group as a Senior Water / Wastewater Project Manager.

Primary duties of this position will include:

As a Senior Water / Wastewater Project Manager, you'll be responsible for scoping, planning, managing, directing and monitoring all aspects of medium to large drinking water and wastewater projects and contracts with high degrees of technical complexity. More specifically the Sr. Project Manager will be expected to effectively interface with clients while independently leading and supervising teams of engineers and CAD professionals to develop planning documents (e.g. master plans), preliminary engineering reports, detailed designs including plans and specifications, and cost estimates. These responsibilities will include:

  • Serving as the trust client-facing project manager for a variety of technical delivery projects
  • Developing project design criteria, schematics and methods
  • Preparing preliminary design, basis of design reports, routing and alignment studies, and other engineering reports
  • Developing and writing engineering specifications and front-end documents
  • Overseeing the production of design drawings
  • Developing and executing QA/QC and risk management plans for each project
  • Working directly with the owner to ensure that the project exceeds the owner's expectations
  • Lead and/or support client management and business development activities including pursuit planning, proposals, interviews, and client strategy

If needed, the Senior Project Manager may be needed to perform detailed design work themselves to support the project and as such, the candidate should have an exceptional demonstrated technical background.

Beyond technical delivery, the Senior Project Manager will be expected to collaborate with leadership, other project managers, and technical staff across Florida to maintain HDR's commitment to excellent technical delivery for our clients. Specific activities related to the overall technical delivery program could include development of a technical mentorship and development program, reviewing existing detailed design standards, direct mentoring and/or supervision of staff, engagement in the group's quality control and compliance program, lead abstract development and review activities for local conferences, and involvement in the review of scopes of work and associated fees.

Lastly, the Senior Project Manager is expected to actively engage in client management activities (e.g. internal client management calls, client meetings) and participate in the overall strategy discussions for successfully marketing with our clients in an effort to grow HDR's book of business in the Orlando and Central Florida area.
