Senior Project Manager

We are seeking a Senior Project Manager to join our team in Novi.
 

You’ll lead signature road, highway, and bridge design projects for MDOT and municipal clients—projects that make roads safer, communities stronger, and economies thrive. Your leadership will accelerate our growth across the Great Lakes region, building on the momentum of our recent C2AE acquisition and combining local expertise with global resources to deliver solutions that scale.
 

From day one, you’ll be driving impact. In your first year, you’ll secure key wins with MDOT and municipal clients, strengthen relationships that turn projects into partnerships, and build a high-performing team ready to deliver excellence.
