Water/Wastewater Treatment Project Manager

Freese and Nichols

Project Manager

Freese and Nichols is seeking a proven Project Manager to join our growing water and wastewater treatment team. This position is open to our Atlanta, Colombus, Duluth, Charlotte, Raleigh, and Greenville offices. We deliver some of the largest and most technically complex treatment projects in the country—projects that demand strong leadership, sound judgment, and a deep commitment to quality.

Our team is at the forefront of innovation and scale. We helped deliver the nation's first direct potable reuse project, are supporting the first municipal-scale seawater desalination facility on the Texas Gulf Coast, and are designing treatment plants with capacities exceeding 350 million gallons per day. As a project manager, you'll guide multidisciplinary teams through the planning and delivery of these transformational systems.

What You'll Do

  • Manage the design of water and wastewater treatment facilities from planning through construction
  • Oversee the development of technical deliverables, including process evaluations, design drawings, reports, and specifications
  • Lead and mentor a team of engineers and designers across multiple offices and disciplines
  • Coordinate scope, schedule, and budget to ensure high-quality, on-time project delivery
  • Serve as primary client contact, maintaining communication, trust, and long-term relationships
  • Collaborate with subject matter experts on advanced technologies such as MBR, RO, IFAS, and desalination
  • Support proposal development and participate in business development with existing and prospective clients

Qualifications

  • Bachelor's degree in Civil, Environmental, or other related field
  • 8+ years of experience in water and/or wastewater treatment design and project execution
  • Professional Engineer (PE) license in at least one U.S. state (required)
  • Demonstrated experience managing complex municipal treatment projects
  • Strong organizational skills, leadership presence, and client management ability
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills
