- Review, sign, and seal survey documents, plats, and legal descriptions.
- Prepare proposals, budgets, staffing plans, and project forecasts.
- Drive operational efficiency while maintaining exceptional client service.
What We're Looking For
- Professional Land Surveyor (PLS) license required (Connecticut and/or New York preferred; reciprocity assistance available).
- Leadership experience managing survey staff and projects.
- Strong background in land development surveying.
- Experience with boundary, topographic, ALTA/NSPS, construction, and residential development surveys.
- Working knowledge of AutoCAD and modern survey technology.
- Excellent communication and client management skills.
Why This Opportunity?
- Rare succession opportunity with direct overlap alongside the retiring Regional Director.
- Lead an established team with an existing client base and steady project backlog.
- Report directly to executive leadership with significant visibility and influence.
- Competitive compensation with base salary targeted up to $160,000+, annual bonus potential, and flexibility for exceptional candidates.
- Excellent long-term career growth with one of the nation's most respected organizations.
If you're an experienced PLS looking to step into a high-impact leadership role, or an established Survey Director ready for your next challenge - we'd love to start a conversation.
