The Opportunity

Black & Veatch has an exciting opportunity for a Florida Resilience & Recovery Lead focused on infrastructure resilience, mitigation, preparedness, and long-term recovery from disasters. The advisor will serve as a prominent ambassador for BV's resilience & recovery solutions; drive business development and collaborate on strategy, provide technical expertise and guidance to clients, projects, and teams, and will support our regional leaders as a seamless national team of experts that will fuel the continued growth and success of our resilience practice.

With a focus on developing BV’s presence in the resilience & disaster recovery market, this leader will consult with our regional resilience planning, facility, and coastal teams. They will bring a strong network of state and local clients who are procuring resilience and recovery solutions, and they will identify a portfolio of target opportunities that aggregate solutions from across BV, with a dedicated focus on integrated & resilient infrastructure solutions.

They will collaborate with multi-disciplinary teams to help guide the development of solutions and new business, for a variety of municipal, utility, state, and governmental clients, leveraging familiarity with state and local programs as well as FEMA, USACE, HUD CDBG, FERC, DOE and other Federal agencies. They will work directly with both new and existing clients and will help inform capability development through identification of key gaps, leveraging a network of partners to address those gaps.
