Transportation Engineering Practice Leader & Office Director

Transportation Engineering Practice Leader and Office Director

Shape the Future of Transportation in Boise and Beyond

DKS Associates is growing! In November 2024, we proudly welcomed Six Mile Engineering, a respected Boise-area firm, into DKS, a 100% employee-owned company. With this acquisition, we’ve combined Six Mile’s local expertise in roadway design with the full breadth of DKS’s national strengths in transportation planning, engineering, and technology. We are seeking an experienced transportation engineering leader to serve as our Transportation Engineering Practice Leader and Office Director. The ideal candidate brings broad experience delivering transportation projects, building client relationships, leading multidisciplinary teams, and mentoring technical staff with roadway design serving as one of several areas of technical expertise. This senior leadership role combines responsibility for transportation practice growth with leadership of our Boise office, including financial performance, employee development, strategic planning, and operational excellence. 

The Opportunity

This strategic leadership role blends transportation consulting expertise, business development, technical leadership, office management, and financial stewardship to advance DKS's reputation as a leader in transportation consulting. While roadway design remains an important technical discipline, this leader will collaborate across transportation planning, traffic engineering, multimodal, and technology practices to deliver integrated transportation solutions. Success in this role requires balancing client service, practice growth, office leadership, and development of future employee owners. 

This is more than a job, it’s your chance to set the direction of a growing practice, expand roadway and multimodal services, and mentor the next generation of leaders.

Your Impact

At DKS, you'll do more than deliver transportation projects.
