About the Opportunity

We are looking for an Owner's Advisor to join our Advisory Services team. We partner with public and private sector clients across water/wastewater, transit and transportation, environmental services, and construction management-helping deliver critical infrastructure that strengthens the communities where we live and work.

This role is ideal for a seasoned consultant who thrives in an owner-facing environment and brings both technical depth and strategic perspective to complex capital programs. We have a preference for candidates located in Oregon; however, we're open to considering remote candidates with the right experience and qualifications. Candidates may also choose to work hybrid from a Parametrix office, depending on location.

Your Role on the Team:

• Represent the Owner: Serve as a trusted advisor acting on behalf of the owner to support projects and programs from concept development through design, permitting, procurement, construction, closeout, and warranty.
• Support Program & Project Delivery: Provide hands-on leadership and oversight to help guide successful execution across all phases of delivery.
• Support Alternative Delivery: Provide expertise in Alternative Public Works contracting, supporting the successful delivery of CM/GC, CMAR, GC/CM, PDB, or DB heavy civil infrastructure projects.
• Lead Cost & Budget Oversight: Develop, review, and validate cost estimates and budgets to ensure alignment with project scope and owner expectations.
• Monitor & Analyze Schedules: Evaluate and track project schedules, identify risks or variances, and recommend corrective actions.
• Manage Risk & Decision Support: Conduct risk assessments and facilitate risk mitigation strategies, decision analyses, and lifecycle cost evaluations.
• Evaluate Scope, Schedule & Budget: Independently review and negotiate key project elements to protect the owner's interests.
• Support Procurement & Delivery Strategies: Advise on alternative delivery approaches and procurement methods to drive project success.
• Build Client Partnerships: Collaborate closely with clients, stakeholders, and project teams to maintain strong, trusted relationships throughout the life of the project.

What You Bring to the Team:

• Experience: 15+ years of consulting experience in owner's advisory, alternative delivery, program management, or management consulting in the infrastructure space. Strong background in procurement processes, contract development, cost engineering/estimating, schedule development and review, risk assessment, decision analysis, and lifecycle cost evaluation.
• Owner Advocate: Skilled at conducting independent cost estimates and schedule reviews to evaluate and negotiate scope, budget, and timelines in the best interest of the owner. Experienced in supporting procurement strategies and alternative delivery methods.
• Project Delivery Leader: Proven success managing and delivering complex capital programs and infrastructure projects from planning through construction and closeout.
• Alternative Delivery Expert: Deep understanding of Alternative Public Works statutes, procurement processes, preconstruction services, GMP development, and collaborative delivery models.
• DBIA Certification: Design-Build Institute of America (DBIA) certification, demonstrating expertise in design-build best practices and collaborative project delivery.
• Client-Focused Relationship Builder: Demonstrated ability to establish and maintain long-term client relationships, ideally within the Pacific Northwest. Trusted advisor who brings professionalism, sound judgment, and a collaborative approach.
• Strong Communicator: Excellent verbal and written communication skills, with the ability to clearly present technical information and provide executive-level decision support.
