Consulting Engineering Lead

Role Description

CEG Solutions is hiring a Regional Practice Leader to grow our direct-to-market consulting engineering practice across the Denver and Mountain West region. This is a seller-doer role for a licensed engineer who is energized by the full arc of the client relationship — finding new opportunities, winning the work, leading delivery, and growing it into something larger over time.

You'll be a principal face of CEG's consulting engineering division in the region:

• Opening doors with new clients.
• Shaping technical scopes and proposals.
• Leading high-quality engineering work that includes MEP design, energy and plant master planning, capital planning, energy efficiency studies and audits, and monitoring-based commissioning and retro-commissioning.

Backed by CEG's Denver- and Boulder-based engineering team, you'll have the talent and infrastructure to deliver — and the mandate to expand both the client base and the team itself as the practice grows.

What You'll Do

• Drive Business Development and Market Growth
  • Identify, pursue, and win new consulting engineering opportunities across the Denver and Mountain West region.
  • Build and nurture a network of clients, partners, and industry contacts that generates a steady pipeline of work.
  • Develop proposals, scopes, and pricing that position CEG to win — and that set projects up for successful delivery.
  • Represent CEG at industry events, client meetings, and in the regional engineering community.
  • Target clients and markets strategically — pursuing consulting opportunities that build a healthy book of business.
• Lead Project Delivery
  • Serve as the technical and project lead on the work you bring in — owning scope, schedule, budget, and quality.
  • Direct the engineering effort, leveraging CEG's Denver- and Boulder-based team.
  • Apply engineering judgment and consulting experience to solve client problems.
  • Maintain hands-on involvement in technical decisions.
• Manage and Grow Client Relationships
  • Serve as the primary point of contact for clients throughout the life of each engagement.
  • Build trust through responsiveness, technical credibility, and clear communication.
  • Identify follow-on opportunities within existing client accounts.
  • Continuously prospect for new clients in the region.
  • Recognize when a client's needs align with CEG's broader capabilities.
• Build and Develop the Team
  • Partner with leadership to identify hiring needs and recruit additional engineering talent.
  • Mentor and develop engineers on the team.
  • Foster a high-performance, collaborative team culture.
  • Help shape the long-term vision and capabilities of CEG's consulting engineering practice.
• Strengthen the Practice
  • Hold P&L responsibility for the regional consulting engineering practice.
  • Contribute to the development of standards, tools, and processes.
  • Share insights from the market to inform the firm's strategy.
  • Champion CEG's value proposition in the Mountain West.

Qualifications
