Structural Bridge Technical Manager

Benesch is seeking a Structural Bridge Technical Manager to join our team in Kanas City!

This is an opportunity for an accomplished bridge engineer to grow as a recognized technical leader without having to move away from the engineering that made them successful. At Benesch, career advancement does not have to mean becoming primarily a Project Manager; our Technical Manager path provides the opportunity to remain deeply engaged in complex bridge engineering while expanding your influence through technical leadership, mentoring, innovation, and the advancement of design practices.

You’ll help solve some of our most challenging bridge problems, develop the engineers around you, guide complex designs, ensure quality, evaluate alternatives and build expertise that can influence projects and teams across Kansas, Missouri, the West Region, and ultimately the company. The career path intentionally grows that influence from project-level technical leadership to recognition as a regional expert, and ultimately to serving as a leading technical resource and subject matter expert across multiple divisions and on a national scale.

The ideal candidate will have a proven track record of successfully managing various structural-bridge projects, ensuring the development of high-quality engineering documents. Previous experience mentoring and directing staff on technical skills is highly desired.
