Description

Waggoner Engineering, Inc. is hiring a Project Manager / Client Account Manager for our Jackson, MS office to provide quality planning, designing and technical overview to assist in delivering project, within budgetary and time constraints.

The Project Manager / Client Account Manager leads the successful delivery of municipal, county, and state government projects from initiation through closeout. This role serves as the primary client contact while managing scope, schedule, budget, quality, risk, and multidisciplinary teams.

  • Communicate project status, risks, and opportunities to clients and internal leadership.
  • Administer contracts, including amendments, invoicing, reporting, and closeout.
  • Identify opportunities to expand services and support client growth strategies.
  • Team Leadership & Collaboration

  • Lead multidisciplinary teams of engineers, planners, and technical staff.
  • Coordinate with discipline leaders and support staff to execute projects and proposals.
  • Provide feedback on team performance and project delivery.
  • Business Development & Strategic Support

  • 5+ years managing public-sector engineering or planning projects.
  • Experience leading multidisciplinary teams and managing budgets, schedules, and risk.
  • Strong communication, leadership, and client relationship skills.
  • Preferred

  • PMP, PE, AICP, or similar certification.
  • Experience with infrastructure, transportation, water, stormwater, or planning projects.
  • Knowledge of public-sector contracting, funding, and regulatory requirements.
  • Core Competencies

  • Project and financial management
