  • Prepare and deliver technical reports and presentations to clients.
  • Establish and nurture effective relationships with existing clients, contractors, and stakeholders while identifying new business opportunities.
  • Oversee sales and marketing initiatives, pinpointing key pursuits for business growth.
  • Ensure that revenue and customer satisfaction objectives are achieved.
  • Supervise the development of cost proposals and qualifications to meet financial performance targets, including presenting project budgets and estimates.
  • Monitor project performance metrics.
  • Provide leadership and mentorship to the department.
  • Ensure adherence to quality assurance and quality control processes.
  • Perform additional duties as assigned.
Qualifications:
  • A Bachelor of Science or Master of Science degree in fire protection engineering or a related engineering discipline from an ABET accredited institution.
  • A minimum of 7 years of relevant design experience (a completed master's degree in fire protection engineering may substitute for one year of experience).
  • Master's Degree in Fire Protection Engineering with 6 years of relevant experience is required.
  • Expertise in standard engineering methodologies and practices.
  • In-depth knowledge of building codes, fire codes, NFPA standards, FM Global datasheets, military standards, and API guidelines.
  • Exceptional written and verbal communication skills.
  • Proven critical thinking abilities, with a methodical and analytical approach to problem-solving.
  • Capability to lead project and discipline design teams effectively.
  • Advanced proficiency in design tools such as hydraulic calculation software, AutoCAD or Revit, Excel, and Word.
  • Must possess the ability to obtain and maintain access authorization to sensitive facilities and data.
