We are seeking a Senior Geotechnical Engineer/Manager with 7+ years’ experience to provide engineering and consulting services for an array of projects and clients throughout Middle Tennessee.

As such, the candidate will also be responsible to simultaneously interface with and assist the CMT manager with technical and management aspects of the division. We are looking for a driven individual who will work collectively with the entire Collier team and has leadership capabilities.
