Senior Highway Project Manager Design / Construction Inspection (PE)

Nordstrom Williams

Senior Highway Project Manager (PE) / Senior Transportation Project Manager

If you've built your career managing construction inspection work — and you're ready for a role with more scope, more influence, and a team that actually invests in its people — this is worth a look.

A well-established Western New York transportation consulting firm is growing its Rochester office and open to PMs whose background runs through construction inspection, design, or both. If you know NYSDOT project delivery from the field side, that experience is specifically valued here.

Why This Highway PM Role Stands Out

  • Predominantly office-based with flexibility for field involvement
  • Direct access to leadership - decisions get made here, not three layers up
  • Strong, established client base across NYSDOT, county, and municipal markets
  • Low turnover, people tend to stay
  • Real path to business development and senior leadership
  • Opportunity to mentor and develop the next generation of engineers
  • Immediate access to a well-rounded benefits program designed to support you, your family, and your pets
  • Opportunity to participate in employee ownership

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Manage transportation projects across planning, design, and/or construction phases
  • Own scope, schedule, budget, staffing, and client communications
  • Provide QA/QC and ensure successful project delivery
  • Support proposals, client outreach, and relationship management
  • Coordinate across disciplines and mentor junior staff
  • Represent the firm at industry events and transportation organizations

About You

  • NY PE license or ability to obtain one required
  • Solid transportation PM experience — CI background welcomed and valued
  • Working knowledge of NYSDOT standards and project delivery processes
  • Proven ability to build and maintain client relationships
  • Experience leading teams and coordinating multidisciplinary efforts

How To Apply

We’d love to see your resume, but we don’t need it to have a conversation. Message Lynn Novo here or call or text View phone number on click.appcast.io and tell me why you’re interested. Or, if you do have a resume ready, apply here.
