At Van Metre, we believe that each employee contributes directly to our growth, success and culture. We seek out candidates who love to challenge themselves and work with others to fulfill this role. Van Metre is seeking a Land Development Intern for the Summer of 2027!

We are seeking a Land Development Intern who enjoys being challenged and learning new skills! In this role, you will be mentored by an experienced Land Development Project Manager and the Director of Land Development & Engineering. You will assist with all aspects of the field management of land development and the overlot grading process.

All Van Metre interns will have the opportunity to meet and network with interns and employees from other departments and divisions. Interns will engage in a series of trainings that will help them to excel in their particular roles and to broaden their understanding of the company and the many different ways to become involved at Van Metre. The internship program is designed to give our interns valuable and broadly applicable experience that will continue to be an asset well into the future.

The Land Development Internship will be a hybrid position and will work both remotely and partially in-person at our Broadlands, VA office, and requires the candidate be local to the Northern Virginia area.

Under the supervision of the Director of Land Development & Engineering, responsibilities include:

  • Completing and reviewing overlot grading plans, wall checks, and cut sheets.
  • Reviewing county infrastructure plans for development.
  • Managing site contractors and consultants to complete site work according to the approved construction plans and best land development practices.
  • Ensuring compliance with local, state, and federal requirements throughout the development process.
  • Engaging contractors and managing completion of punchwork in a timely manner according to standards and specifications.
  • Managing maintenance of sites during home construction through bond release.
  • Providing customer service and communicate site information to departments and external customers.

Requirements:

  • Pursuing a Bachelors Degree in Civil Engineering or equivalent education
  • Knowledge of AutoCAD
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Office (e.g. Word, Excel, and Power Point)
  • Ability to work in a fast-paced environment and collaborate effectively as a team member
  • Ability to communicate at all levels with internal/external clients by phone, email, and in person
  • Ability to maintain a professional demeanor and appearance at all times
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills
  • Valid Driver's License and personal transportation

Van Metre's Summer 2026 Internship Program is an 8-week program in which Interns get the opportunity to hone the skills in their field but also learn about our business. The Program starts the first week in June 2027 and runs through early August 2027. Interns will attend trainings and planned sessions with Executives from every team, learning about every aspect of a product, from inception to completion, sale, and management. The goal is to assist in your quest to become a well-rounded individual, just like our company is!

Why it works

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
