ABOUT LIVIC CIVIL

Imagine coming to work each day, excited to tackle challenges alongside a team that's just as driven and passionate as you are. We're LIVIC Civil—a tight-knit firm with a mission to guide our clients to success, whether through civil engineering, land development, traffic and transportation engineering, GIS, survey, or landscape design. With several of our biggest projects yet on the horizon, we're looking for someone ready to grow with us and help make a lasting impact.

This role isn't for everyone. If you:

• Settle for "good enough,"
• Avoid taking on new challenges,
• Struggle with constructive feedback, or
• Prefer working solo instead of on a team,

then this might not be the right fit. But if you're a fast learner, adaptable, and eager to research, problem-solve, and contribute to something bigger, you may be exactly who we're looking for.

WHO WE ARE

LIVIC Civil is Not Your Ordinary Civil Engineering Firm. Since our founding in 2017, we've partnered with clients who share our values of integrity, hard work, and responsiveness, delivering projects that go beyond expectations. As a small, agile firm, we're committed to evolving quickly, achieving exceptional results that set us apart.

JOB SUMMARY

LIVIC Civil is growing, and we're seeking a full-time Civil Engineering Project Manager to lead projects in our Landscape Architecture department! If you're a visionary leader with a passion for designing sustainable, functional, and aesthetically inspiring spaces, this role is perfect for you!

In this position, you'll play a key role in shaping communities, working on diverse projects that blend engineering and landscape architecture. You'll collaborate with a multi-disciplinary team of professionals, navigating evolving project scopes and adapting to dynamic workloads with ease. Strong interpersonal and project management skills are essential, as you'll coordinate with professionals from various backgrounds to bring projects to life.

Key Responsibilities:

• Prepare and review design computations, plan designs, and drawings.
• Prepare project estimates, engineering proposals, budgets, schedules and execution of plans.
• Prepare and review specifications, draft letters, and written technical reports.
• Coordinate with peers and project managers regarding project progress.
• Coordination and review of technical project aspects and submissions.
• Coordination with municipalities and/or permit agencies.
• Attend client, municipal and agency meetings.
• Use computer assisted engineering and design software to prepare engineering and design documents.
• Oversee overall project quality assurance and quality control.
• Supervise, mentor and develop staff and team members.
• Manage project finances including invoicing and accounts receivable support.

PATHWAYS FOR GROWTH

At LIVIC, we offer a unique opportunity to transform your hard-earned skills and connections into something extraordinary. Your career so far has been about mastering the entitlement process, growing your network, and navigating complex regulatory landscapes. These experiences have positioned you to lead with confidence. Now, we invite you to build on that foundation and lead your own group—all with the support and resources of our thriving, innovative firm.

As a Project Manager, you'll not only oversee impactful projects but also have the opportunity to grow into a leader of your own specialized practice within our company. Here's how we'll help you succeed:

• Lead Your Own Practice – Take ownership of your projects, grow your client portfolio, and guide your own team while shaping the vision for your practice.

This is a rare chance to combine your technical expertise, leadership skills, and entrepreneurial vision in a supportive environment where you can thrive and grow. At LIVIC, we don't just offer a job—we offer the opportunity to build and lead something truly your own while leveraging the foundation you've worked so hard to create.
