Coos Bay office started in 2001 and with business cycles and retirements, we find ourselves in a re-build and start-up situation. This position will fit someone with an entrepreneurial spirit, someone who wants to get in on the ground floor of the revitalization of the South Coast’s harbor, port, and railways, and yet continue our work in municipal infrastructure. This is a job for someone who sees themself as a Regional Principal in the future; there is lots of growth potential in this position.

For the right individual, a career pathway could be entering as a Project Manager, promoting to Senior Project Manager (managing multiple disciplines on large projects), and then promoting to Regional Principal (responsible for Coos Bay staff and projects). Depending on experience and drive, this pathway could take as little as five years. Shareholder eligibility is available after one year.
