    The Opportunity

    Join one of the region’s most respected civil engineering and surveying firms as a Survey Party Chief. You’ll lead field crews on high-profile transportation and infrastructure projects for clients like NJDOT, NJ Turnpike Authority, Garden State Parkway, and NYC public agencies.

    We’re looking for an experienced leader who can run a crew independently, coordinate with project managers, and ensure surveys are accurate, on time, and up to DOT/public agency standards.

    What You’ll Do

    • Lead field survey crews for highway, right-of-way, ALTA, and construction stakeout projects.
    • Operate and maintain surveying instruments (Total Stations, GPS, scanners) and ensure all data is properly collected.
    • Interpret project plans and specifications in the field.
    • Work closely with office staff and project managers to ensure deliverables meet client and DOT standards.
    • Mentor and train junior crew members.

    What We’re Looking For

    • 5+ years of land surveying field experience, with at least 2+ years as a Party Chief.
    • Strong background in transportation and right-of-way survey projects (NJDOT or NYC public agency work a plus).
    • Proficiency with Leica, Trimble, or Topcon equipment.
    • Ability to work independently in the field and manage daily schedules.
    • Valid driver’s license and clean driving record.

    Why Join Us?

    • Work on impactful public infrastructure projects that shape the region.
    • Competitive pay with overtime opportunities.
    • Stable, growing firm with a strong backlog of work.
    • Supportive environment that invests in equipment, training, and your career growth.
