The Portfolio Manager is a senior technical leader within the Municipal Team responsible for overseeing a portfolio of complex municipal infrastructure projects, developing project managers, and strengthening client relationships. This role focuses on portfolio performance, strategic client advisory, business growth, and technical quality rather than day-to-day project delivery. The Portfolio Manager partners with public agencies and internal teams to drive successful outcomes, grow the municipal practice, and support the development of future leaders.

Key Responsibilities

Technical Delivery & Discipline Expertise

Apply technical expertise in a review and advisory capacity; validate technical approaches and QA/QC frameworks across the portfolio. Personal technical execution is reduced to approximately 25% or less — primary value is judgment and oversight, not production. Identify technical risks across the portfolio and direct corrective action.

Project Scope & Schedule Management

Oversee scope and schedule performance across a portfolio of concurrent projects. Identify systemic schedule or scope risks and intervene at the project level when needed. Ensure PMs within the portfolio are developing, maintaining, and executing project plans.

Financial & Commercial Management

Manage area-level financial performance across the portfolio: margin, revenue, write-offs, and contract compliance. Ensure Technical PMs within the portfolio are managing finances effectively and escalate systemic issues. Contribute to annual revenue planning, backlog management, and growth targets.

Client & Stakeholder Management

Lead strategic client relationships for key accounts or high-value clients in the portfolio. Support Technical PMs in client escalations and relationship development. Identify opportunities for expanded scope and cross-selling in coordination with BD leaders.

Quality & Risk Management

Establish and enforce QA/QC standards across the portfolio. Identify portfolio-level technical, financial, and client risks and develop mitigation strategies. Drive lessons-learned integration across projects.

Business Development

Lead or co-lead pursuit strategy for major opportunities in the area or discipline. Build strategic client relationships that generate repeat business and expanded scope.

People & Team Development

Develop Technical PM capability across the portfolio; coach PMs on project management skills, financial management, and client relationships. Contribute to staffing, hiring, and succession planning.

Technical Skills Required

Why it works

3×

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.
