About The Position

We are seeking an experienced Electrical Engineering Leader to lead and expand a growing MEP practice in Phoenix, Arizona. This is a high-impact leadership role for an established consulting engineer who combines technical expertise with strong business development capability, client leadership, and operational management experience. In this position, you will oversee electrical and MEP engineering project delivery across a variety of commercial, institutional, and mixed-use developments while helping drive strategic business growth throughout the region.

You will serve as both a technical leader and project manager, guiding projects from proposal and pursuit phases through design and delivery. Responsibilities include managing project scope, schedules, budgets, profitability, proposal development, electrical construction cost estimating, and multidisciplinary coordination with architects, mechanical engineers, and plumbing teams. The role also includes significant leadership responsibility, including mentoring engineering staff, contributing to strategic growth initiatives, supporting market expansion efforts, and helping establish a sustainable and profitable consulting practice. This opportunity is based in the Phoenix office with additional flexibility across Mesa and Scottsdale locations and limited hybrid scheduling depending on project requirements.
