What You Will Be Doing:

In this role, you'll move beyond support work into greater ownership-guiding planning studies, land development reviews, and entitlement efforts from concept through implementation. You'll analyze data, develop clear and visually compelling reports, and turn complex planning topics into practical, actionable solutions.

You'll also step into a more client-facing role, leading presentations, facilitating meetings, and engaging directly with community members, public officials, developers, and project partners to build alignment and move projects forward.

Working within our collaborative, multidisciplinary team, you'll have the opportunity to deepen your experience in key areas like land use and project communication while taking on greater ownership and visibility across projects. You may also contribute to long range planning and comprehensive plans for clients-gaining valuable exposure to a wide range of project types.
