Your role will also include leading a design team and mentoring less experienced team members. With access to Stantec’s global network of multi-disciplinary teams with diverse backgrounds that inspire new ways of thinking, you can be a thought leader or leverage the thought leadership of your co-workers. Your creativity will be applied to a variety of projects including rural and urban roadway designs, interstate and interchanges, roundabouts, active transportation, smart cities, and more.
You will play a primary role in guiding and growing our design teams throughout the Midwest. You will join a dedicated group of professionals who are eager to take their capabilities to the next level and more fully leverage the resources and expertise of a global company. In this role, you will connect with potential clients, mentor and guide employees, and lead projects to further establish our organization as a top transportation engineering firm. Your work will include coordinating with, and provide support to, the Transportation and Community Development teams on projects throughout Minnesota, North Dakota, South Dakota, and beyond.
