Menlo Park is seeking well-rounded professionals with exceptional technical and project management skills for vacancies in the Engineering Division of the Public Works Department. Ideal candidates will be impressive problem solvers with the proven ability to be adaptable and innovative. A history of delivering outstanding projects and results will be expected. There are several openings to be filled depending on the candidate's interests, skills and experience. About the Department The Public Works Department is responsible for planning, building and maintaining the City’s infrastructure including its facilities, streets, sidewalks, water, stormwater, parks, trees, landfill and transportation system. The Department protects the City’s investments in infrastructure and public facilities to ensure the health and safety of the community in an efficient, sustainable and cost-effective manner. The Department also provides private developments with oversight engineering review to insure that these projects are constructed according to city specifications. The Department consists of three Divisions: Engineering, Maintenance and Transportation. Engineering has three sections: Capital Improvement Program, Utilities and Development Services. Class Characteristics Project Manager : This is the entry-level classification in the Project Manager series. Initially under direction, incumbents perform a variety of project management duties while learning City policies and procedures. As experience is gained, assignments become more varied, complex, and difficult and close supervision and frequent review of work lessen as an incumbent demonstrates skill to perform the work independently. Positions at this level usually perform most of the duties required of the positions at the Senior level, but are not expected to function at the same skill level and usually exercise less independent discretion and judgment in matters related to work procedures and methods. Work is usually supervised while in progress and fits an established structure or pattern. Exceptions or changes in procedures are explained in detail as they arise. This class is further distinguished from Senior Project Manager in that the latter is responsible for supervising assigned contractors and staff.

Positions at this level receive only occasional instruction or assistance as new or unusual situations arise and are fully aware of the operating procedures and policies of the work unit. Successful performance of the work requires thorough knowledge of contract administration, project management principles and supervisory practices. Positions in the Project Manager/Senior Project Manager class series are flexibly staffed and positions at the Senior level are normally filled by advancement from the Project Manager; progression to the Senior level is subject to management approval and is dependent on the incumbent (i) performing the full range of duties assigned to the Senior level, and (ii) acquiring the knowledge, skills and abilities necessary to meet the minimum qualifications for the Senior level of the series. These positions are eligible for a hybrid work schedule, with a combination of remote and in-office work. Education and Experience Any combination of training and experience that would provide the required knowledge, skills and abilities is qualifying. A typical way to obtain the required qualifications would be: Project Manager Equivalent to graduation from an accredited four-year college or university with major work in Construction Management, Project Management, Engineering, Architecture, Public Administration or a closely-related field.
