Job Description

Job Description

At C&S Companies, we believe work environment, culture, and the opportunity to learn and grow are key elements when considering a new job. We are just the right size to provide the resources and support you need without the burdensome bureaucracy of a large corporate environment. To that end, we foster a family-friendly and supportive workplace; collaborative and employee-focused with an emphasis on quality, integrity, trust, fun, and accountability.

C&S’s National Aviation Planning Practice strives to be the trusted first call for clients and communities seeking our diverse perspectives and expertise that shapes our environment, strengthens connections, and creates lasting impacts. We promote personal and professional growth by cultivating and sustaining a safe, inclusive atmosphere where everyone feels a sense of belonging. By encouraging employees to bring their whole selves to work, we create a diverse and equitable environment where all our voices are heard.

Position Overview

The ideal candidate will have experience in selling, winning, and managing airport planning projects, such as master plans and on-call contracts, and serving client needs from small to large scale at both general aviation and commercial service airports. The candidate will also have strong communication skills and understanding of aviation planning, environmental planning, sustainability, land use, facility/terminal planning, and commercial development principles. Experience and understanding of FAA policies and standards with relationships with FAA’s Western Pacific and/or Northwest Mountain Regions and Airports District Office personnel are also important. Specific assignments will depend on the skills of the individual.

Position Responsibilities

  • Manage all aspects of an on-call contract or specific project from identification of opportunities through project close out.
  • This includes participating in and developing material for proposals and project interviews, determining scope of work, estimating fees, negotiating contracts, budgeting and cost control, scope and schedule control, staff resource management, and quality control of all assigned projects.
  • Serve as primary client contact.
  • Lead public and stakeholder participation sessions.
  • Coordinate efforts with local, state, regional and federal agencies on behalf of clients.
  • Maintain current knowledge of aviation industry services, projects, and trends.
  • Willingness to travel to client sites across the United States
  • Mentor and coach less experienced staff and contribute to the growth of the Practice on the West Coast in terms of assisting with securing new clients, project types, and staff.

Skills/Education/Experience

  • Bachelors Degree in planning, engineering, or a related field.
  • AICP, LEED AP, ENV SP, PE, AAAE CM certification, or pilots license preferred.
  • 10 plus years of related experience specific to the position.
  • Knowledge of FAA’s Airport Improvement Program (AIP) and its grant processes.
  • Excellent oral and written communication, interpersonal, organizational and analytical skills.
  • Leadership experience including business development, aviation industry involvement, project management, and ability to manage and direct others

Estimated Compensation Range and Benefits

$150,000 - $195,000/year*
