Job Description

North Texas Municipal Water District seeks an experienced manager and leader to serve as its next Engineering Manager. This position requires a bachelor’s degree in civil engineering or a related field, plus at least 10 years’ supervisory experience in an Engineering Department or a closely related field. Public or private experience with design and construction in the field of water and wastewater systems will be considered. 

Situated on the eastern side of the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex and headquartered in Wylie, the North Texas Municipal Water District (NTMWD) serves one of the largest and fastest-growing regions in the country. Residents have their choice of over 150 communities spread across the area and enjoy a median home sale price of about $385,000, the seventh most affordable among America’s top 20 metro areas. NTMWD is a regional wholesale provider of essential services in one of the country’s fastest-growing areas. NTMWD serves more than two million people in up to 80 communities with drinking water, 1.4 million with wastewater collection and treatment, and 930,000 with waste management services. It has an annual operations budget of over $670 million and employs nearly 900 hard-working professionals.

NTMWD is managed by a board of directors, its members appointed by each of the 13 member cities, who work diligently to ensure the vitality and success of the region by ensuring the cities have the essential services they need to thrive. All leaders in their own communities, District board members have historically brought with them an array of professional experience in banking, law, engineering, construction, science, education, and civic leadership. Supplying water to North Texas communities is how the District got its start — and decades after 10 neighboring cities recognized the benefit of pooling resources to obtain water rights and build the infrastructure necessary to provide water for thousands of residents, the District now serves safe, reliable drinking water to over 2.2 million people across 2,200 square miles.

The Engineering Department delivers engineering and construction projects that provide service to NTMWD members and customers. Reporting to the Assistant Deputy – Engineering, the Engineering Manager oversees the implementation of Water and Wastewater for the NTMWD. This includes providing oversight on the development of project scopes, selecting and onboarding consultants, procuring contractors, and coordinating with internal and external customers and vendors conducting business with the NTMWD. 

To be considered for the Engineering Manager position, a candidate must be a Licensed Engineer in the State of Texas, or be able to obtain one within 12 months. Must have a valid Texas driver’s license or be able to obtain one within 12 months. This position requires moderate physical exertion and general physical mobility is required.
