NorthPoint is a real estate developer that has grown by combining an entrepreneurial spirit with the empowerment of its team members. We are seeking a Development Manager (civil / pre-development) to join our growing team. This role will be a key leader in the pre-development lifecycle of NorthPoint’s industrial and data center projects, responsible for navigating complex entitlement and permitting processes to secure jurisdictional approvals. The ideal candidate will bring expertise in land use, zoning, environmental, and utility permitting regulations to ensure projects are “shovel-ready”, on time and on budget. At NorthPoint, collaboration and mentorship are central to our culture, and our core values guide every business decision. The Development Manager will serve as a primary problem solver, working closely with internal teams and external consultants to overcome regulatory and technical challenges.

“We truly believe, and I’m convinced, we have some pretty incredible assets. But those assets have all come from our people.” - Nathaniel Hagedorn | CEO.

  • Conduct comprehensive site feasibility and due diligence, including review of title / survey, environmental reports, and geotechnical studies to identify potential development constraints and opportunities.
  • Serve as the primary liaison with public and private utility providers (power, water, sewer, gas, fiber). Manage the process for utility capacity studies, service agreements, and the design and approval of on-site and off-site utility infrastructure. This includes navigating complex energy regulatory affairs, such as large load tariffs and interconnection studies.

  • Strong project management skills with the ability to manage multiple complex projects simultaneously, prioritize tasks, and meet critical deadlines.
  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills, with the ability to effectively negotiate and present complex technical information to a variety of stakeholders, including government officials and community members.
  • A proactive, solutions-oriented mindset with the ability to anticipate potential issues, develop creative solutions, and make decisive judgments to keep projects on track.
  • Highly resourceful and collaborative with the ability to work effectively within a team and lead external partners.
  • We are an equal opportunity employer. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, disability, or veteran status.
