Help Build Something Different

Bingham Engineering & Consulting is a growing civil engineering and municipal consulting firm serving communities throughout Central and Southeastern Pennsylvania.

We are seeking an experienced  Senior Municipal Engineer / Client Manager to play a key role in the continued growth of the firm.

This is not simply another project management position. We are looking for an experienced engineer who has spent their career developing strong professional relationships, understands how to successfully serve municipal clients, and wants the opportunity to help build something rather than simply operate within an established corporate structure.

You will work directly with company leadership, have significant autonomy in managing clients and projects, help develop and mentor staff, and have a meaningful voice in the future direction of the company.

Candidates with established client relationships are strongly encouraged to apply and will be considered for additional compensation commensurate with the value they bring.

What You'll Do

• Serve as a trusted engineering advisor and primary point of contact for municipal clients.
• Manage civil engineering projects from proposal and planning through design, permitting, bidding, and construction.
• Develop and maintain strong long-term client relationships.
• Identify and pursue new business opportunities through professional relationships, referrals, and industry involvement.
• Prepare and negotiate proposals, scopes of work, budgets, and fee estimates.
• Lead multidisciplinary project teams and coordinate engineering and CAD staff.
• Mentor junior engineers and designers.
• Coordinate with municipalities, regulatory agencies, developers, architects, surveyors, contractors, and other project stakeholders.
• Oversee project schedules, budgets, technical quality, and client satisfaction.
• Help recruit and build additional staff as your project and client portfolio grows.
• Participate directly in strategic decisions affecting the continued growth of the firm.
  

What We're Looking ForRequired Qualifications

• Professional Engineer (PE) license.
• Approximately 10+ years of civil engineering consulting experience.
• Significant experience managing municipal engineering and/or land development projects.
• Demonstrated ability to develop, maintain, and grow strong professional and client relationships.
• Experience managing project budgets, schedules, and multidisciplinary teams.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills.
• Leadership ability and a desire to mentor and develop staff.
  

Highly Valued Experience

Experience in one or more of the following areas is particularly valuable:

• Municipal engineering.
• Municipal client management.
• Land development.
• Subdivision and land development review.
• Stormwater management.
• PennDOT permitting.
• Public infrastructure design.
• Construction administration and observation.
• Business development.
• Proposal development and client acquisition.
• Staff leadership and mentoring.

Established relationships within Pennsylvania's municipal, development, or AEC community are highly valued.

Compensation & Benefits

• Base salary of approximately $125,000–$145,000+, depending on experience, capabilities, and client relationships.
• Additional performance and business-development incentive compensation.
• Employer-sponsored health insurance.
• Dental and vision insurance.
• SIMPLE IRA with company match.
• Paid Time Off.
• Flexible work schedule.
• Hybrid work opportunities.
• Professional development support.
• Company-paid professional licensing and applicable professional memberships.
• Opportunity to build and lead your own team as the firm grows.

Exceptional candidates who bring significant established client relationships or an existing portfolio of work may be considered for compensation above the stated range.

Why Bingham Engineering & Consulting?

At a large firm, an experienced engineer can easily become one of many project managers operating within layers of management.

This opportunity is different.

You will work directly with company leadership and have a meaningful role in determining how the company grows, which markets we pursue, how we serve clients, and how we build our team.

We want experienced professionals to have the freedom to make decisions, develop relationships, build teams, and see the direct impact of their work.

For someone who has spent years developing a reputation and professional network, this is an opportunity to leverage that experience to help build a growing engineering firm rather than simply contribute to someone else's established organization.

We are looking for someone who wants more than their next project management position. We are looking for someone who wants to help build a premier engineering consulting firm and leave a lasting mark on the company they help create.
