Position Overview
Are you a civil engineer ready to transition from production-heavy tasks to true project ownership in one of the Southeast’s fastest-growing coastal markets? We are seeking a Project Manager / Project Engineer to lead high-impact site development initiatives from our Myrtle Beach office. In this role, you aren’t just drafting plans; you are the primary architect of the project lifecycle—steering complex land-use challenges into successful, built environments for both public and private sector clients.

With a family-oriented culture, a dedicated in-house Civil 3D training program, and a condensed work week, this position is designed for the high-achiever who demands professional excellence without sacrificing personal time.
Core Responsibilities
Full-Lifecycle Stewardship: Orchestrate all aspects of civil site development, guiding projects from initial feasibility and master planning through final construction administration.
Strategic Site Design: Direct the preparation of comprehensive site plans, ensuring technical precision in grading, complex drainage systems, utility infrastructure, and erosion control.
Regulatory Diplomacy: Act as the primary liaison between clients, contractors, and regulatory agencies to navigate permitting hurdles and ensure seamless project approvals.
Financial & Operational Oversight: Manage project budgets, track business metrics, and ensure deliverables are met with both technical accuracy and fiscal responsibility.
Leadership & Mentorship: Cultivate the next generation of talent by providing direct technical guidance and career mentorship to junior engineers and designers.
Collaborative Integration: Work fluidly within a multidisciplinary environment, integrating surveying, GIS, and environmental data into cohesive site solutions.
Required Qualifications
Education: Bachelor’s degree in Civil Engineering from an ABET-accredited institution.
Experience: 5+ years of progressive experience in the design of public and/or private site development projects.
Licensure: Active Professional Engineer (PE) license (SC preferred or ability to obtain via comity).
Software Proficiency: Advanced, professional-level command of AutoCAD Civil 3D.
Leadership: Proven ability to manage project financials and lead small-to-mid-sized design teams.
Preferred Qualifications
Regional Expertise: Local knowledge of South Carolina coastal regulatory requirements and permitting processes.
Business Acumen: Experience in client development and the ability to identify new project opportunities within the Myrtle Beach market.
