About The Position

Arcadis is seeking a highly skilled and motivated Project Management Specialist
to support one of the most iconic and consequential infrastructure initiatives
in the United States — the Gateway Hudson Tunnel Project (HTP). In this role,
you will play a key part in scoping and estimating costs across various aspects
of the program, ensuring accurate and reliable projections to support successful
project execution.

We are working in partnership with Parsons and Mace as part of the MPA Delivery
Partner team, selected by the Gateway Development Commission to deliver this
transformative project. The HTP is a critical component of the broader Gateway
Program — one of the most ambitious and impactful transportation initiatives in
the nation — and is designed to strengthen mobility, enhance resiliency, and
ensure the long-term reliability of the Northeast Corridor.

The project encompasses the construction of a new, two-track rail tunnel beneath
the Hudson River, along with the full rehabilitation of the existing
113-year-old North River Tunnel. This vital infrastructure supports more than
200,000 daily passengers via Amtrak and NJ TRANSIT and serves as a backbone for
economic activity and connectivity between New York and New Jersey.

This is more than just a job — it’s a once-in-a-generation opportunity to
contribute to a nationally significant infrastructure program that will reshape
rail transportation, drive sustainable economic growth, and improve regional
accessibility for millions. As part of this high-performing, multidisciplinary
team, you will help deliver excellence on one of the most technically complex
and high-profile projects in the world.

If you're seeking to make a meaningful, lasting impact — while advancing your
career alongside some of the best minds in the industry — this is your moment.
