  • Existing client relationships in NC / SC, Mid-Atlantic, or South-Central U.S.

  • Must Have :

    U.S. Citizenship (due to government project access)

    Why is This a Great Opportunity

    Why You’ll Love This Role

  • Impactful work : Be part of challenging projects across federal, educational, and mission-critical sectors
  • Small-firm culture + big opportunities : Direct access to leadership, decision-making, and business development
  • Work-life balance : Hybrid work options and generous PTO
  • See history from the inside : Work on iconic and high-profile facilities
  • Perks & Benefits
